Here I am with Kwaad ,I dont want to pay for online .I am more of a single player gamer .I like sometimes a online match or session but thats about it .For me and the users like me the X360 is more expensive than the PS3 .Plus ,the PS3 online will improve over the time ...for example we have heard today rumours about the Playstation Home with Mii-like avatars and Achievements .PS3 Online is very good being free and it will improve over time .
Seriously, saying that the XBox 360 is a $700 system is like saying World of Warcraft is a $500 game because it has a monthly fee ...
Or that the Wii is a $2400 system because after you spend $250 for the game, you will need to buya steady supply of games for 5 years ...
The logic behind this makes me justified in saying the PS3 is a $15,000 system because you will need a top of the line TV and Surround Sound system in order to take advantage of the system ...
Look ,the money is money .If you spend 1000 dollars in a MMORPG between the game ,the fees and some add-ons for it to work in your computer is 1000 dollars no matter what .That games cost money we take for granted ,and nearly the same for the three consoles .But the associated costs also matter ,and in associated costs you have in the X360 the online play that like it or not marks some difference .A user that has been paying the fees since the original Xbox Live started and until the end of the X360 lifetime will have paid effectively 400-500 dollars for 6-7 years ,just about what a Playstation endures in the market .
To Xbongox I wont answer ....he is such a fanboy !!
