Title: How much are you paying
Post by: Masterchief on November 23, 2003, 11:28:08 AM
How much are you paying to play your consoles games online? for xbox its 50$ a year no matter how many games you have.

Nothing, because I don't waste money playing a game online with strangers when I can play with my friends for free...

Theres plenty of PC online games for free. Xbox Live is Meh IMO.

I'm gonna have to go with Bill, too. Even if I could play online for free, I wouldn't- I'm just not interested in that sort of thing.

I am really not that interested in online gaming either. A) It's not accessible to me B) I don't want to play with strangers. It's more fun with real people.

I pay NOTHING.  I wouldent mind paying for a thing like x-box live were its yearly for unlimited play on all games but I would never pay for an individual game ever.

I do play lots of online games and if there was no such thing as online games I probably wouldent be playing games today.  I just think charging for each individual game is rediculas. these are the games I play now online

warcraft 3
starcraft
halo
MOHAA
MOHAA spearhead
Armagetron (fun game )
Worms Armegeddon

now just imagine I had to pay individually for those games.  letes say lowest price possible is $10 a month each. well thats $70 a month just to play online.  forget that.....  its a complete waste of money

Nothing. I consider it a waste of money that could be buying more games.

well i would consider paying to play PSO, because i'm inlove with the game, but as of this very second $0, paying to play online is silly, when you consider the enormous PC online comunity paying a total of $0* to play their games online, to expect anything different from consoles is ludicrous.

*mmorpg's aside ofcourse

yep *nods head*

zippo the hippo says "paying money for a waste is a waste of money."  Think about THAT.  The main reason I would get into online multiplayer would to play with friends across the country or in another country.  For free of course.
