I know when I used to have the 360 and XBL, I would play as much as I could (till my hearts content) because I knew that I only had a limited time with it.
Now on the PS3, I don't find myself playing as oftenly, only going crazy (like I did in the 360 days) when I'm about to have my internet capped.
If they don't charge a monthly fee, I don't think people will come back to it unless it is truly amazing (which it could be) and if people continually drop out of playing the game, there's less incentive to start playing or continue playing (like what happened wth CoD W@W after about 6 months, A LOT of people went back to CoD4).
I dunno, the deal breaker here is whether or not it's a good game (I'm sure if Warhawk was launched without any bugs but with a monthly subscription cost, people would still play it). Of course with Warhawk being free, it'll be tough to charge for MAG (so I guess it's obvious then that it was going to be free?). |
Glad that works for you. I however don't need to pay for something to feel pressue to use it so I'm quite happy to have it free personally.

Wow, I should be really worried if that's how people view paying for Xbox Live....

Um.... Hi.
My name is IllegalPaladin, and I've been playing a game like Counter-Strike (and it's iterations) for around 7 years and believe it or not, I don't have to pay a montly or yearly fee to play it.
