Are people really using the MMO model to justify Live? Totally different animals, but okay ...

The level of defensiveness I see over Live always catches me by surprise. I, for one, and not saying Microsoft has to change their approach or that anyone else has to stop buying Live. Both can keep what they are doing to their heart's content. All I'm saying is that I will choose something other than Xbox next gen if Live continues in its present form. It's as simple as that.



Pretty much exactly whay I have to say as well. I used 360 as my primary console, tried the other platforms and found Live to be not worth the extra money. So next gen if XBL keeps charging for basic multiplayer (I don't care about cross game chat or other glitter), I'll switch to PSN if they still have free multiplayer at the very least. If I'm feeling PSN+ has value (like it does now), then I'll get that. But I don't see myself getting back into a position where I have to pay to play just MP.
