Find the quotes for DC Universe and Agency being free please. I have heard none of that nonsense. PSN already has pay for content stuff (Qore) so I don't see how a MMO charging would be out of the question.

They said it will be free but they will use in game micro transaction like they will charge for the costumers and weapons that are used.The games will be free to play.

Again I ask you to find the quotes. If you can't find a source then I am just going to assume you are making things up. I have been on and off following DCU and have heard absolutely nothing to this effect.

the 2 other online games for the 360.. Phantasy Star universe and Final Fantasy XI require a monthly fee but they also run on Silver accounts..

 

and PS3 owners with BC can play the PS2 version of FFXI which requires a monthly fee..  it install's Square Eni'x Playonline viewer which takes you to their Billing fees among other thing...



No Mmo's on 360 should not count be covered by gold.

I am an adult who expects people to back up their claims. You refuse to do so, thus I am inclined to believe you are making stuff up. Either be ready to back up your assertions, or don't make them. Simple as that. Burden of proof is on you.

@Solid

I googled it for you and it is all just rumor at this point. They are hoping to find corporate sponsers to use in game advertising instead of a monthly fee (which about 1/3 of MMOs coming out have that exact same rumor.) Hopefully it works out.



Sigh why is it no one listens to me when i say this no matter where I say it? For the last time MMO's can be played on Xbox 360 with Xbox LIVE Silver thus far. Final Fantasy 11 is this way but who knows if this formula will stay. IMO it will since you are actually paying money to play on the mmo's servers and not Microsoft's LIVE servers.



 How our favorite systems are just like humans and sometimes have issues finding their special someone...

Xbox 360 wants to KinectPS3 wants to Move!  Why are both systems having such relationship problems?  The reason is they both become so infactuated with desire while watching the Wii as it waggles on by. They simply want what they can't have.

Neither of those articles mention DCU at all. I am forced to believe you mistakenly thought DCU would be the same when nothing to that effect has been mentioned. Although there is an irony with you being so reluctant to answer my request when you are asking a question with a readily available answer (FFXI).

FFXI has two fees,one is MS gold and 2nd is Square Enix server fee
