Thing is, whenever a "xbox guy" give a legit reason why they were paying for Gold, people would always chastise him. As in, "Well, Ps3's free". There's a serious "It doesn't affect me, so I'm cool with it" attitude here going on now that things are changed.
I'm not calling anyone hypocrite. I'm just saying that, suddenly, paying for online isn't a bad thing. It's nice, you see, PS+ gives you a lot of things and it's a pretty nice deal. But you understand what I'm saying. |
Maybe I'm not a frequent guest of Microsoft threads, and some may espaced from my attention, but I haven't seen much of ranting from Sony guys about free online, it's a neat thing no doubt, but it was a hot topic at the start of the gen, not recently. so I haven't seen the arguments in a rather long time.
On the other hand I also recall, not particularly on this site, but overall, that MS fans were often claiming, that Live is better because it's a paid service, and the sub-par PSN has conservations all the time, worse apps and got hacked. And now I've seen comments that used the PS4 payed online as a point in downplaying the service and/or (but it might have been only Sales2099 :P) so both parties like to change their attitude, it's nothing new really. But such generalisations aren't bringing much into the discussions imo.
So it is happening...PS4 preorder.
Greatness Awaits!
