| Game_God said: A console life span is in general = 6 years. To play on-line you pay a yearly $50 internet fee, X 6 years= $300. Games are about $20 cheaper on PC, say you buy 4 games a year X6 years= 24 games @ $20 cheaper= $480 saved. With the money you save on internet & games alone you can build yourself a $800 rig! Not to speak of all the extra stuff you can do with a PC... Any questions? |
Oh, just a few
1. Will Sony come and knock on my door now that the ps3 has been in the market for over 6 years? Or have they already come? Why are developers still releasing games for ps3 in 2015 if it's life span is 6 years? Is someone allowed to play older games on a ps3/xb360? So, could someone keep playing video games for a decade if he manages to hide from people who want to take his console back?
2. I've had a ps3 and a vita for years and never paid for online. Strange. I've been a ps+ member since it came out for the games it offers. Does that mean that if I buy a ps4 I have to also pay a $50 fee for online and get no games? What if I find better deals? Will I still have to pay $300? What if I quit gaming in 3 years? Is that $300 a final number? Seems so.
3. I get most of my games either through ps+ or ps+ sales, which are pretty much as good or better than steam sales. Does that mean I'm still losing money? What if I buy used that Steam doesn't offer?
4. Based on your points, I saved 0 money, I paid extra for windows, antivirus, and a gamepad. I have -$150 for that $800 rig you're talking about.
Not interested in the extra stuff, since I have a laptop for that.
