[QUOTE=ChaosUnleash;18988975]To be honest I think that £40 a year is pretty fair for all the shit you get with Xbox Live, and I'm quite happy to pay for it.[/QUOTE] My thoughts exactly.

I knew they would do this. It's simply not reasonable to host massive expensive servers for free.
those ads are for selling more consoles,and for every ps3 slim to be made it costs 370$,so they're losing 70 per console. its like they're shooting themselves in the foot.
They'll only charge for new features. They've said (in a dance of obfuscated phrasing) that the online service will refrain from a having a monthly fee.
Sony finally got jealous of Microsoft's earning in XBL
I figured this would happen sooner or later
[QUOTE=shipkiller;18987459]this is a big kick in the sony fanboy asses[/QUOTE] Why? Xbox users have been happily sucking off Microsoft for so long it is only logical for other companies to get in line behind what they are doing.
I'm posting this again because you idiots didn't even bother to look at it and kept going with the "Oh noez it's not free I'ma sell a perfectly good system over a rumor."

[QUOTE=Bengley;18984774]That's $5 on top of internet price, phone bills, food costs, water, electricity. Plus Microsoft already make enough money from all their other products and they surely make enough on 360s to be able to run some servers.[/QUOTE] - I am not one to usually say something like this, but if 5 dollars a month will break your bank on top of your food and water and house and insurance and gas and electricity and so on and so on, then you need to not be thinking of getting a PS3 or an XBOX. I am not directing the you towards your personal self I am meaning it in general for whoever thinks that 5 dollars is going to ruin their life...
Well this sucks. Looks like Sony is about to screw themselves over.
Let this damn rumour thread die.
You could say... Sony has seen the S[B]on[/b]y Button for cheap money

A good majority of FP does not pay for their own gas/electricity/water. If they have an Xbox, they can afford the $7 a month for Live.
