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?

 

But you'd want to play your games online, wouldn't you? That is one of the battles of this generation that the Xbox began to build upon last generation. My argument is just with games because I agree with other content.

If somebody doesn't want to pay for it then that's fine, but I don't think online games should be considered a premium perk when a majority of games coming out will be including online play.

I think the problem would just be that it's hard to say that you really don't need any online at all unless you have no internet access.

 yeah, as DKII says, it's not really free.  they're just charging you in different ways.  basically i'm saying just that.  it's just a different pricing scheme.
