Please go away now and realise that this is stupid. I pay more than $3 a month to wipe my ass with toilet paper but guess what? I could just save money by using the local newspaper for toilet paper and/or steal it from the local shopping centre. That's what this thread is. A ridiculous argument over $3 a month..... |
I see this argument often. It isn't the price, it isn't even the total concept of Live. The package of features itself isn't the issue.
The issue is paying to play online. MS does not have dedicated servers for retail games - although I'm told they have ones for XBLA ones. All MS does is enhance architecture already setup by devs. Devs use p2p or their own dedicated servers for the multiplayer component so why is MS charging you to use what already exists?
