I already said i wasn't arguing, and i never said you disliked it either, i suggested that you didn't have positive feelings towards it, not that you had negative. *headdesk* seriously.cursedseishi said:Mhm, thats what I do and did, but perhaps you need a refresher course.dogstile said:... Yeah, screw arguing with you. READ.cursedseishi said:And where exactly did I say I hate live?dogstile said:So pretty much you're saying:
"Because Microsoft want to make a profit and other company's don't make as much as a profit i think they're being stupid".
I mean, i'm all for it being cheaper, but its a business. They have to make money somehow. Considering they've been lagging behind lately i don't see all the fuss. Some people like live, deal with it.
Dislike =/= hate
That's pretty much how I felt when the Avatar market was opened. All those people that bout a lightsaber (that doesn't even glow) for $5 are pretty good proof of how cautious and sensible people are willing to be with their cash.Sniper Team 4 said:I'm not sure what scares me more. The fact that he thinks Microsoft would do this, or the fact that there are people who would actually pay this.
I am not a elitist, but even I can't help but feel flabbergasted that so many people accept the Xbox Live Gold account as a "wortwhile deal", even though PC gamers (and PS3 gamers, for that matter) don't pay a dime in order to play regular multiplayer.Jack Gruff said:This all makes me grin very nicely.

Sean Malstrom had a field day with that one.

I mean even if it may come true, it's just a frigging prediction right now. And if you wonder why I don't like that guy, watch this:

I think
was his best."In 2010, Sony's going to have 55 per cent, Microsoft's going to have 35 per cent and Nintendo 10 per cent, with all three of those having plus or minus five per cent."
Another moronic statement from Pachter. Hello and welcome to Clueville: Apple is a COMPETITOR with Microsoft because of Apple computers vs. Windows-based computers and even Zune vs. iPod. Why on earth would Microsoft team up with them or vise versa? They wouldn't. Instead, if anything, they'd make some sort of Zune-syncable market with Zune partnered song sales (whatever marketplace that has).Andy Chalk said:What could Microsoft offer to attract members to the new plan? Pachter said a "Platinum plan" could include exclusive items for use in Microsoft games and possibly more advanced media center applications. "If members could get specialized Halo armor or weapons worth the extra $40, they might be more willing to sign up, and it doesn't really cost Microsoft anything to offer things like that," he said. He even suggested that Microsoft could make a deal with Apple to allow 360 owners to manage their iTunes accounts through their consoles.
