I call your stealth trolling here. What is the best selling franchise on PS3? What are the top selling games on PS3? What are the top most played games on PS3? What are the fastest selling games on PS3? PS; the answers are COD, COD, COD, COD. Everyone plays it, no matter the demographic, and everyone is equally likely to buy the Elite service, no matter how useless it is may appear to you. Singling out 360 users in this particular case is just stealth trolling the Live service tbh. It's peoples choice, and really $60 is chump's change, it works out like 6 days for $1, it may add up in the end but so's putting 20 cents every day into a jar. It really doesn't have that big of an effect that people keep claiming it does. I'd rather pay $60(£25) for service that has solid record of stability in the last few years than the service that is plagued with downtime maintenance or is pretty much unstable for most multiplatform major releases - COD/BF/FIFA. |
Well you are paying $60 on top of $60 for the game in the first place
The Elite service is effectively to fund playing CoD for a year. Activision wants a subscription service to take advantage of their userbase in the same way that Blizzard does with WoW. Xbox users already pay for a subscription service to play their games online, PS3 users don't, that is the difference.
Also, I just subconsciously moan about Xbox Live Gold because I object to being unable to play 1/2 of the game that I have paid for in many cases. Also I would rather use a service that works well for all well made games when I don't play online that much, and always complete SP first giving me extra time to wait for the issues to be ironed out
