PSN+ & XBOX LIVE

Since we are paying yearly for these subscriptions for both console. Both of the company should implement a new SERVER for the paid subscriber so they can have matches like Super Street Fighter 4, or any other Fighting Games, FPS, or any Racing Games etc via PS3 vs Xbox 360.

By doing this. Many people that were hesitant or doesn't like the idea of a paid service would think otherwise. That they can finally battle it out with their favorite console against the competition. I think its a great idea, because I for one would like to pay the service, just to have a more variety of players to battle with. Especially with the other system.

Since its not the server from Sony or Microsoft. Maybe the game developers can work something out with them. Offer them a little bit of something so all 3 company will gained something out of it. That way it would have more people willing to pay for the service.

well.. 90% of PSN aren't paying yearly subscriptions.

And another thing...
Servers for games like SSF4 aren't managed by Sony or MS.
They are done by the respective dev/publisher (or their contractor).
So even though we are (might be) paying Sony/MS, it gives Capcom (SSF4 publisher) NO incentive to put a better servers for people that are paying for PS+ or Gold Live.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster922d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
