Haha 13$ for a month of gaming? No thanks.
AND you have to pay for the game too. Wtf?

You have to pay for a cell phone. and you HAVE to pay for a subscription to use it.
You have to pay for a computer, and you HAVE to pay for internet for it to be remotely useful.
Your arguement is moot.

Actually, it's not. When you get a cell phone, many providers will offer you a free phone with a contract. If you want more features, then you'll have to pay. As for a computer, well... I can do things without the internet on my machine. Things like Civilization 2, Diablo 2, or doing a school paper. I don't need the internet for those.
Subject at hand. I'm in the same boat. I refuse to pay for something, then be told I have to keep paying to be able to keep using it. You want to charge $13/month? Fine, make the software free. You want to charge me $50-75 for the software? Then there better be a way I can play it as much as I want without paying another dime. Otherwise, I see most current MMOs as double-dipping for money, and that's not a practice I want to support.

So you would pay 65 dollars for 1 new game that lasts maybe 6-12 hours? But not a 13/month game that gives you more content than that game?

For the first case, I'd pay it, IF it was a game that interested me. A hardcore action game I'd pass on; those aren't my type. (And if an RPG is only 6-12 hours, I'm not going to have much interest in it either.) I'd also be more likely to consider paying $13/month for a game that I liked, but as I said in the other post, I would want the software provided for free. If I'm going to pay $50-60 for something, it's not going to be for the priviledge to pay another $13/month to play something I've already paid for.
