a ps4 is $400, just put $25 in a draw each month and you will have it before they cut off support. probably sooner since price will drop over time. Can get one used for probably half the price.

the ffxi comment is kinda moot since they did stop ps2 support with their last expansion.

Sorry if this sounds cold, but do you really expect a company which has a business model set to milk 10$ a month really focus on those with such limited resources. I would not expect any company to spend big dollars for design and test on any console after a year of its successor being on the market.

Also if $400, spread out over a year is to much, you really should look into getting a better job or some budgeting websites.

It is not appropriate to limit the entire player base to what a PS3 can support for a small number of people who cannot upgrade. I say pull the plug sooner then later.
