So you're basically saying PC gamers suck it up and pay for online why don't console gamers do the same? |
No. I'm saying paying for online isn't seen as evil if Blizzard does it, but for if MS does it people act like stealing money from orphans. I'm also asking if all online fees are fundimentaly wrong or just the ones fans don't have the cash for?

No service should be asking you money for allowing you to play online. The pay for online model has existed on PC only, before Microsoft came alnog with Xbox. A lot of people do pay to play online, but there are a lot more who don't like to pay. Console gamers are just trying to avoid this PC practice from becoming 'normal' on consoles.
Unless you're an employee at one of those companies, i don't understand why there are people who are trying to make this happen on consoles as well!

Hey. I personly would rther not pay anything to play games. I wish I could have the cake and eat it too. But I pay entry fees for games just like I do if I want to see a concert. I could listen to music on the radio for free, but if I want to see it live I accept that it will cost me. I'd love to play Halo 4 online for free, but I'm not going to deny myself fun for a measly 4 bucks a month. I spend more on soda ever month.

If you want to play Halo/Gears/Forza online and pay money for it, then you can do so. I will play Uncharted/GOW/LBP/Infamous/Resistance/Killzone online for free. Same with multiplats. You can pay for the same games like COD/BF/AC while I can play them online for free.

Great. We agree to be happy that the other is enjoying what they want to enjoy.
There is one difference between us. I'll be playing all your examples because a tiny fee is not a wall too high for me to climb.
