Yh a nice $100 feature the 360 doesnt have anyway ;) u cna play online and download 99% of the stuff ont eh store without getting plus lol.


That's not even the point. 

1. I don't care about the 360. I still have everything and more that was promised me when I bought it. Unlike the PS3.

2. Several people in the thread stated that MS doesn't charge publishers because they are charging their customers, guess what, Sony is too.

3.Yo mom!

4. The only difference between the slim and fat at the time of my purchase was the $100 price tag and OtherOS. To get on PSN I have to give it up. So yeah...

A.Why do you keep going on and on about the 360? :P. I'd much rather get games for my computer which still has linux btw... :P 

2. That wasn't a rant. I just find typing with numbers easier and faster, and my dinner was ready >:D

3. Your mom likes the 360 more!

4. Nah, I bought my 360 before RRoD was discovered, so that was just a bonus :-p



Sig thanks to Saber! :D

Sony isn't though.  Microsoft is charging customers for key features of games such as playing online at all.  Sony is providing a service (PSN Plus) that is completely and totally different than Xbox Live.  It has nothing to do with playing online whatsoever.  PSN Plus has to do with those who like PSN games can get a bunch of them rented (as long as they keep their subscription), along with discounts, for an extremely cheap price.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.

I still call BS on that as a reason. Battlefield Bad Company 2 for instance onlya couple weeks ago released a 1.7GB mandatory patch most of which was for the VIetnam exansion (when you buy Vietnam it is just a tiny unock file).  Vietnam is £10, to buy all SSFIV costumes would be I think £22.40, or about £15 as a bundle when that releases in April or so.  The SSFIV costume are only about 350MB in total, so the costs for releasing them are not only a lot less than BF but the money to be made would be significantly more also.  BF runs dedicated servers to.

 

Capcom just cheaping out and using Sony as a excuse.

 

No one will buy them if cannot let others see them, evidently most people agree with this since the previous two sets of costume you'd see people using often but I haven't bought any of these and never get the messae that someone using a costume I do not have.


It's actually not BS, whenever you download anything on the PSN (including free demos) it costs the publisher money.  It's all up to the publisher if they want to pay for that cost or not.  With BF, they decided to pay it, for Capcom, they didn't see the need to.

I don't even know why I'm arguing with you.  Sony has a service that is like $50 for a year that provides games, it has absolutely nothing to do with online play.  People are paying $50 for games, as games cost money.  Xbox live is a service that costs like $50 a year for online services, such as playing games online, timed exclusives for games, and all sorts of other goodies.  It is a lot more online related.  The money going in for Sony is a completely different source of money, and should have nothing to do with whether they charge publishers or not for dlc.

Quote the part where I said it was for online play. The first person that quoted me said they don't charge users(or something along the likes of that) which is wrong 

2. From what I've seen the majority of the games that Sony has given away were published by them, no? So it doesn't cost them anything. And you lose them when you cancel your subscription, no? So you are more or less renting games. 

3. For the second time, why do people keep bringing up Live?

4. Since everyone else is doing it I might as well, MS is using some of the money to upkeep Live, and it pays for stuff like this. Sony is using the money to upkeep PSN, and then charging the publishers money to upkeep PSN. Quite brilliant actually charge people to get discounts on games and access to demos and people will love you for it
