| scat398 said: And the hypocrisy of a million Sony fans begins.... With that being said this definitely the right move for Sony. It will give them the level playing field they have desperately needed with Xbox live and pricing. Ms has been able to use live as huge leverage on the financial end to keep profits up and price low. This is a good move by Sony just a lot of fans are going to have to eat some crow. |
The hypocricy is from both sides to be fair.
xbox fans : eww you have to pay, haha there goes your 399 console - yet they've always had to pay, and adding xbl increases price of the 360, and one still requires subscription
ps fans : yeah well i dont mind since drm etc
Truth is it makes no difference, and in the long run the benefits xbl had are long gone with the new generation it becomes a matter of value for money - for ps fans thats without a doubt ps+ as it provides access to ps3, ps4 and vita titles at no additional charge beyond the subscription, every month, however you look at it, that's very good value for money.
