To some extent, the wii is being backhand by Balmer and Co as well. First of all Microsoft has more money than nintendo and sony. MS DOES NOT NEED to charge for online, but they do. I once asked my uncle why a dog licks his balls, his response "because he can." Same thing goes for MS. Yes, xbox live offers unparralleled, unmatched, and unrivaled features. But is it really worth $50-60 a year? Well, it doesn't matter what I think because MS IS GONNA DO WHAT THEY WANT. And let me tell you right now, MS is NOT scared of sony or nintendo. PROOF: They have the balls to INCREASE the price of something their competition is GIVING AWAY FOR FREE. Brazenly, MS rolls ahead with price increases in an economic depression. Patcher said a few years back that if the PSN takes off, xbox live will go free. Faced with increased competition, the opposite has happened. Microsoft is saying to ninty and sony, we don't care what you give away or do with your online networks, we aren't scared of losing customers to you, and we will do what we want. Why??? Because they can
Before anyone tries to get cute and say "well actually it's a slap in the face to xbox owners" I will politely tell you that you are wrong. Why?? Because xbox liver is the best, most integrated online COMMUNITY!! And the enormous amount of people playing online prove this beyond the shadow of a doubt.

the only person that it slaps in the face are us customers, it helps sony and nintendo...

Agreed as an Xbox Live customer myself. It's gonna happen eventually with inflation, though. PFG has a lot of dedication to a company (unless he's a shareholder).
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
