Microsoft couldn't have done it without the money from membership charges.

I know what your little mind is thinking,
"Then how does Sony do it then?"

Well, it's called competition.
They needed to offer something that consumers would choose over the other guys. They decided to use the Exact Same things. Because they're innovative.

Sony knew that their reputation for having free online gaming was very important, so they k...

I love knowing that paying for LIVE made all those great features that it offered long before Sony, magically appear on PS3.

It's beautiful.

1. PSN is free because it had to be. It's reputation demands it.
2. PSN had nothing at the start, but to compete with LIVE copied all of LIVE's features: Store, Video store, Trophies.
3. LIVE is getting even more features this holiday.
4. PSN will probably copy some of them next year.

NO.
Live shouldn't be free.
But I wouldn't mind if it was cheaper.

Wouldn't it be nice if the PS3 was filled with components that actually cost $400?

This news farther pushes the fact that Sony needs to cut the price tag down.

6347d ago 2 agree4 disagreeView comment

Actually,
Had this been about the 360?

Every PS3 troll would be saying:

"M$ at it again."

"M$ all they care about is money."

"M$ stealing stealing money from gamers."

"M$ pennypinching again."

It's true, there's about 5 years of that crap on this website if you care to investigate yourself.

But maybe now that they're saving money, Sony might c...

After Fable 2's co-op, RPGs from now on will have to consider it at least.

Bioware could pull it off.

At least 2 player.

I wish every game had at least 2 player co-op campaign.
Kindof like Gears, where the game is written around the 2 main characters.

The load times lasted 5 seconds.

And the game still has some of the most realistic textures on consoles right now.

The main character's face alone is comparable to crysis.

So add in the fact that it's all streaming off the disc(not installed) and those amazing textures popping in isn't a big surprise.

The new install feature on 360 will change that problem.

Exclusive to anyone who has a pc that can run it better than an xbox.

or.

Exclusively not on playstation.

Also, the 2nd game will actually take your decisions from your 1st game's save file, and you will encounter people from the first(if you didn't kill them) with their attitude reflecting the choices you made in the 1st game.

Thats a huge feature.

And obviously not a feature that will carry over to PS3.

With the new 360 install feature it won't suffer from texture pop-in.

(if they make it installable.)

ME2 will be installable for sure.

I'm getting them right now.

I've been getting into point and click a lot lately.

Too distracted by consoles.. Missing out on some great stuff.

Yes, especially the year-late version of Bioshock.

Superior crappiness.

6348d ago 4 agree4 disagreeView comment

So instead of the 360 version being better looking.

They'll just look the same.

Scooby doo w/Batman & robin was kickas$.

Finally.

Same here.

The campaign co-op in Gears of War was a huge breath of fresh air for gaming, and a lot of people need to realize/experience that.

It's my favorite part of gears.

The game's story mode is tailored for co-op.
(the seperate paths are great.)

It's brilliant and more games should have that.

Gears of War is closer than any other game to bringing that Contra feeling back.

You missed a comma.

I skipped to the bottom and still didn't read it.

Gears of War is a great game.

It's easy to pick up and play.

And the visuals have a gritty comic book feeling to them that would satisfy anyone who likes gritty comic books.(the Maxx, Spawn)

I never listen to hype pre-release.

But I couldn't ignore my whole friends list inviting me to play GoW and yelling at me for not having it launch day.

Another great NEWS article.

Not with that price tag.

LBP will not sell consoles.

Sorry.

If they want wii games they'll buy the wii.

IN-GAME.

Remedy confirmed on their forum.

But,
It's probably a PC screen.

Which still doesn't matter.
Remedy has promised near identical graphics on pc and xbox.
