No, the point he was trying to make is that if you aren't a fan of PS Now prices, you shouldn't be a fan of this situation where people pay $5 for new accounts so they can play Madden some more. And Puggly's reply was that there are games he wouldn't mind paying $5 to play early, but that doesn't mean he has to be ok with paying $5 to play some old PS3 junk for four hours. It's a reach and a bad one at that. I mean, who here paid $60 for Diablo UEE? So you paid $60 for a game? Well then you should have no problem paying $60 for Murdered: Soul Suspect. It's also a game, and also $60. So apparently this is how logic works. |
You are actually very close to the point I was trying to make...
There actually are people that bought Murdered: Soul Suspect for $60. Probably much less than purchased Diablo. But they are both games sold at the same price, and bith had their market audience.
Same as in my example: Some people enjoy Madden so damn much that they cannot wait 5 days, but repeatedly pay $5 just to play more during the Early Access period.
But there are also people that enjoy old PS3 games (any from some 130 games) who are willing to pay to play classics.
However, some XBox users took to the internet to bash PSNow service any time they could. That's why I hope that those people are not hypocrites paying for one service (more than once) while calling out others.
See, if anybody really cared that much about my opinion (why would anybody?), they would have seen that I am pro EA Access. And would gladly pay $30 per year if I could. But I sure as hell wouldn't pay extra just because I'm too impatient to wait a couple of days.
And it's not fair to equate PSNow with some "old junk", because I'm sure there are some quality titles there, same as I'm sure that most gamers here, regardless of console, still enjoy playing a quality game from 2007 or 2011.
Who has the right to judge a person who would rather pay $5 for a few hours of Darksiders, Enslaved or Catherine or any other, than the same amount for Madden 15? Many would argue Darksiders is a better deal, even 5 years removed...
That was my point. And the source of all hypocrisy, in which a person can crap all over one service, while embracing another, similar, service......just because the console offering it is more favorable to them. (And this goes for both sides equally).
