So not only does this title ask you to pay $15/month, but it also asks for 15GB of your HDD space.


1.) It's only $15

2.) Doesn't MMORPGs usually require a good amount of space to play?


No, the game is $60 to start, then you install 15GB, then you pay another $15. People whine about Live costing $60/year, including me, but $180/year for just 1 game is SO much worse.

Your 1st year of DCU Online will cost you $240. No defending that.

 

I have always felt that pay-to-play titles should be free to begin with. Free to download, then pay to play.

Why pay to get it and then pay again just to play? DCU Online is a ripoff and I love watching Pay-2-Play stuff fall on it's face.

 

As for your 2nd point. Like the article mentions, they have 50GB of space on a dual layered BD disk, why need to install 30% of it? PS3 isn't a PC.

Look at WoW: $40 for initial payment then $15 a month if you pay month to month, and something cheaper on a "per month" scale if you buy for like 3 or 6 months. Just like PS Plus and XBL. It's always the most expensive if you pay month to month.
