[QUOTE="alfy57"][QUOTE="kuraimen"] So what did Live did? Cross-game chat? pfft I don't even like or find any use for cross-game chat.garland51

XBL also is the first service to brainwash its users, by paying for service that has always been free in the pc world. No body can really give use an good answer why MS charges for xbl, only that it allows gamers to play games online (free with pc and other consoles) , so i guess the charge is for users to have cross game chat is the only thing i can come up with, which is pretty expensive service for just to chat lol.

You do know that it actually costs money to run servers, etc., on closed gaming platforms, right? Plus the ones who are giving you online for "free" has money coming out of their pockets for their online division. That's why Sony came out with PSN+ to try to make money for their online division.

Best better believe, Sony (& even Nintendo's thinking about this) will be charging for online play next gen.

ussually when things are free that is online, they have bunch of ads. In xbl case, you just have bunch of ads regardless if you pay or not. So what's the point of charging for XBL, when MS is getting paid fo have those ads on their service. SO pretty much MS is ripping you off and making money from these companies.

[QUOTE="theuncharted34"]

[QUOTE="navyguy21"]I agree with the list, but Super Mario Galaxy should be up there instead of Bioshocknavyguy21

Not a new IP though.

There was a Galaxy before this gen?

THe name SUPER MARIO is not a new IP.

[QUOTE="The_Game21x"]

[QUOTE="kuraimen"] Exactly, also many lems say that online progression is thanks to Microsoft yet 3D progression is not thanks to Sony. Figures...kuraimen

Well, in terms of online progression, console online services are by and large inspired by Xbox Live. 3D? Sure, I guess you can attribute that to Sony but let's not kid ourselves and think 3D support is anywhere near as important as online support.

So what did Live did? Cross-game chat? pfft I don't even like or find any use for cross-game chat.

XBL also is the first service to brainwash its users, by paying for service that has always been free in the pc world. No body can really give use an good answer why MS charges for xbl, only that it allows gamers to play games online (free with pc and other consoles) , so i guess the charge is for users to have cross game chat is the only thing i can come up with, which is pretty expensive service for just to chat lol.

[QUOTE="mrmusicman247"]It's funny. Sony came up with Move. "ZOMG!! They're copying Nintendo!" Sony came up with 3D. "Gimmicky-ness. No one will buy a 3D TV. This will never catch on" Microsoft comes up 3D. "This is progression. I totally support this".OhSnapitz
Similar to XBL creating a pricing system for XBL.. "ZOMG!! They're charging you for online!" Sony then mimics this system. "OMG.. PSN+ is Totally worth it!" :roll: welcome to the system wars..

WEll unliike XBL, I actually saved up to 500.00 due to psn plus for them discouting games. Crap even IGN think its worth it, they saved a ton more. http://ps3.ign.com/articles/117/1179543p1.html

OPEN UP XBL, OPEN UP XBL, OPEN UP XBL!!!!!! but yah Gabe is right though, it seems that MS is just so stingy and of course the over priced service they offer, that really doesn't explain why they charge in the first place, since pc has of the fuctions free, makes you wonder why MS will not open. on well.
