| IllegalPaladin said: Yea, but that hidden fee is where I'm against Xbox Live. Sure, $400 for the 360, but then the hidden cost of online comes in after in the form of an extra $50 a year. I'd have to factor that in as I like to play games online and if I had it for just two years, that's already an extra $500 for permission to play games online and permission to purchase things from a bigger lst. You pay a premium for a greater list of premium things to buy? Well, I guess its worked so far so your right, lol. |
that's exactly the point--let the people willing to pay for the subscription to subsidize the price cut. why should i pay the extra cost if i don't need PSN?
the bottom line is, i think, sony doesn't think it can compete with Live yet, so for now PSN is free. but as the service improve,they're leaving money on the table, and when that happens, i'd much rather see sony slash $100 of the PS3 and subscription PSN instead of same price and free PSN.
the Wii is an epidemic.
