| osamanobama said: XBOX LIVE one of the biggest scams ever (for gaming) people pay $60 for what? hardly any dedicated server games (playstation has wa more) small multiplayer counts, i think the most so far is 24. (psn has 30, 32, 60, and i believe 256) no internet browser. very closed network (cant get games with features like LBP and Portal) it started the paid DLC psn has netflix, vudoo, mlb.tv, nhl network, hulu, and even espn3 through the browser (all of these at no extra charge) the only thing it has the psn doesnt (though the free steam does) is cross game chat. so they are paying $60 to use their own internet connection and are happy about it. theres a reason paid for window live failed. people new that werent paying for anything, they were getting scammed |
Their are deals on X Box live almost every other week so I highly doubt that the majority of users actual pay $60. Also if you buy a lot of X Box live Arcade games you can recoup the cost of a membership very easily with the deals of the week. Actually smaller multi player count is a good think for the most part because its very hard to find 30 people to play one game once it is no longer very popular unless you want to spend more time waiting to find a game then actualy playing the game. Also as long as you are restricted to one browers on a console being able to suft the web on a console is a bad idea their are cell phones out their that can browse the web better then the PS3 and the Wii.
