Lol at the Xbox boys here. I don't know where do you see the sheep changing opinions with the wind (Dmick) or suddenly paying for online isn't a bad thing (Wright) because this thread was made because, we Sony fans are not embracing it with joy, wanting to pay even more. Save for like 3-4 posts, people are either upset, or give good, legit reasons why they are fine with paying.

You're wrong. Look at the thread itself. Almost everyone goes like "Well, I'm a Ps+ already! No problem here!" or "But it is an awesome service! What gives?". So everyone can give good reasons why they are fine with paying.

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.
