PlayStation 3 version: Why Bother?

[Issachar]

I went to some PS3 forums to tell them to sign up for the beta to try out the game. About half the people were positive said they would sign up. On the other hand the other half wouldn't sign up because they said they didn't want to try the game because its not worth trying because of the sub fee so they wouldn't even try the beta.

PS3 users are used to having everything free as far as their online goes, and some people are very stubborn/entitled about it. I remember the PSN+ announcement and how some folk tried to boycott it because it had a pricetag for continued access.

Granted, I love my PS3's free online, but hell, 360 players had to pay a subscription for FFXI on top of their Live fees and they didn't make a (huge) fuss.

Yea its kind of a hard sell on PS3 when every other online game has no fee. MS makes you pay for everything on 360, even Netflix which is a separate sub still have to have Xbox Live Gold to use it.
