wtf...

you pay $50 for the service of xbox live.. all xbox live enabled games can be played for free...

unless you think it's $50 for halo2, another $50 crimson skies, another $50 for ghost recon, etc, etc, etc..

silly...:lol:

nice opinion... too bad that one game doesn't cover as many genres as xbox live games..:)

[QUOTE="VoodooHak"][QUOTE="Rosencrantz"]

The fact is that if anything is going to kill XBL it is going to be Microsoft themselves. They have full control over it and they profit off of it. Meanwhile developers get little to nothing out of the deal. I predict that if other consoles can gain enough of a percentage of their user base, developers will focus more on them. Developers don't like that the PS2 online is unreliable in terms of who will buy into it. However, they love the fact that they have full control over their own product...something XBL doesn't exactly offer.

Having said that, right now the user base for online shows no signs of breaking through that %10 point. So to argue that nobody else can compete is like going back in time to the 80s and asking Sega to compete with the Power Glove. It's stupid and not worth the time at this point.

Free = you get what you pay for = crap

Free PC Online > X-Box LIVE

:lol: XBL is pretty useless anyway. If a console online service is free it's alot better

xbox live is the only console service... the ps2 only has online capabilities....:)

that's only b/c you're not educated enough to recognize the rest....

there's NOTHING to "maintain" on xbox live for the gamer.....

pc gaming is not easier than xbox live noob..

unless you think you can join a game by pushing one button like you can in xbox live...:)

that's one... only 500 to go...:)

You can use xfire or gamespy....pretty much all the features of xbox live right there. For free too.....

"pretty much" doesn't cut it....:)

xbl still better..

to be honest, a lot of those features wont be exploited to a relevant degree on the 360.

and to be honest some more, part of the reason why, is, because a lot of features arent wanted....

yes, sure, there will be the opportunistic poster that will disagree with me, but, nevertheless, XBL only has 2 million subscribers, im betting all they want to do is play their damn games online.

Sony, is going to let developers create their own interface for consumers, and let each developer customize how they want to interact with the players......DLC/payments/etc.

i can see how some people might see XBL as being superior due to features, but all i want to do is play my games online, im not looking to be super social and in depth on my PS3, why would i want that on the 360?

Burnadube

spoke like someone who's never had xbox live...

it's crack....once you start.. it's impossible to see gaming w/o it....

i feel bad for the cows claimimg the ps3 online is "free" when you just admitted developers/publishers will charge.. then again, they will have to to offset the cost of creating their online features and servers....
