Sony convinced you guys that MP paywalls were awesome. Now microtransactions are a gamers paradise. Only at Sony.

FYI, PS3's launch was a bigger FUBAR then RROD. It costed Sony billions more then what RROD costed. Unless offcourse you mean the public perception angle.

Ehh it was MS that convinced people of that, now they succesfully launch a game from a major franchise like Forza with less then half the content of its predecessor give you a 80 dollar special ed with a few extras and even but give you a 50$ car pass to buy back some more content that should have been there from day one at the regualt 59.99 price.

Forza 5 a $130 game with half its predecessors content, only at MS. 

PS3 launch vs RROD is debatable.  But X1s debut was the most controversial anything as far as xbox PS go.

Don't know what perspective you have, but Live Gold was adopted out of necessity more then anything. That and microtransactions have always got a negative backlash online.Doing it first doesn't translate to gamers loving you for it.

But to Sony fans, they now LOVE MP paywalls. Microtransactions? Bring em on! Indie titles? Downplayed last gen but now are the future!

I am serious here, Sony has this squeaky clean image that if there is anything controversal that gamers don't like, Sony can and will make it mainstream popular. Seriously.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
