They are far more expensive and even more prone for a reason to need to warranty. There are tons of games coming out that are gonna rock. I am sorry I offended people with my jackass statement. |
If I could choose between a car that I KNOW will break eventually and one that is 1/4 as likely to breakdown for a little more money I am going to choose the one that will break down less. This is why Honda/Toyota are common in the US. They are reliable. Also, if I had to pay to use the radio in one car and free radio in the other I would, of course, choose the free one.
The analogy there is that some people buy games only for the online portion. I BUY the game to play online, why should I have to pay more money to access the feature I bought it for? And people who say that it makes online better, where is the evidence of that? Xbox Live rarely updates (much less ofter than PSN), dedicated servers aren't mandatory, so where is that money going?
Xbox Live is a rip-off at $50 a year. Sure its not a lot of money, but why pay when there are better options around? I would rather pay that $50 up front one time and get free online for the duration of the console than pay $50 a year for features that will come to the competition any way.
