this topic is the one which sony fans talk about the most isn't it... ms fans don't seem too fussed either way. funny that. |
They are not fussed because they haven't got a choice in the matter. If they want to access the online features of the xbox they have to pay simple as that. This argument has been flogged to death at this stage.
|
They have a choice.. they can get rid of the 360 and buy a PS3 for instance. They dont... why is that?
|
Because they have invested in the hardware already? Bought games, made friends online and got achievement points. Most gamers don't want to lose that so again they have no choice but to pay it.
|
No. They have a choice. They also had a choice 5, 6 and 7 years ago when there was a free alternative.
|
5,6 and 7 years ago, the xbox was a lot cheaper than the ps3. Why would they ditch their ecosystem they have created on xbox live for a console that was more expensive on first glance than the console they already have? Back then, the choice was simple. 7 years later, it is very hard to justify xbox live when you have other alternatives that do the exact same thing except for free.
Next gen is going to be interesting. Microsoft will need to justify Xbox live even more now that PSN has come along a lot. The premium service Sony provides for $49.99 a year eclipses anything Microsoft can come up with right now.
|
and still they are outsold massively in the most consumer centric and biggest single market in gaming.
|
In what?? It is called marketing, unfortunately Sony has been terrible over the last 6 years. I hope they can improve it next gen.
|
ok, well I'll leave you sony guys to talk about this.
|
Thank you mr microsoft guy for letting us sony guys discuss this in peace!! Easy with the labeling. Don't reply if you have nothing else to add if that's all you're gonna do :S
