Oh, Photek! My post wasn't a dig specifically at Microsoft; I'm frustrated by all of the console manufacturers increasing their online charges! It seems reasonable to assume that not many gamers - certainly in the mass market - will pay circa £130 a year to take a PS4, XBO and Switch online.

I don't think it was console war anything. jawa simply said that if one company can raise its prices and the subs continue others will follow suit. I don't get the problem with that statement.

You're on his side of it anyways.

Fair enough. I'm just saying that post on it seems fine to me.

It is a shame that the prices are increasing, hopefully, they won't do a Sony and increase the price and lower what you actually get.

Edit: As you edited your post to say I am on his side I will say that I am not on anyone's side. I literally give no gooseberry fools about any company, have all 3 main consoles and PC, so unless I am misunderstanding something, please, refrain from accusing me with your bullshit, thanks.

If its just the UK it's fine by me. ;)

I get my live from cdkeys.com, it's the cheapest.

You've called me a fanboy more than anyone else in this forum, so retain your bullsh*t, wallow in it, in fact.

I also get live from CDkeys. I did with PS+, but I THINK it went up in price there too.

Like I said, if the price is increased due to various things then it's not TOO BAD, but Sony were dicks and decide to up the price and then remove PS3 and Vita games from the deal.

I'd be great if the did a pay a I dunno £100 a year deal and you get live and Gamepass.

Wait, I've called you a fanboy more than anyone else? I really really don't believe that to be true.

I shall go check my posts for fanboy now.

OK, I just checked. I have 3 total post with fanboy in them, the one above, one about the Gameradar poster Fanboy and one other.

So, not only do you act like a dick you are in fact a massive strawberry floating liar to boot, well done Photek.

Can you please link me to these posts, looking at my post history I've defended you at times, like this here example.

Are you saying Photek will have only voted for Xbox games, even the gooseberry fool ones, just to push down PS games? Surely not! :slol:


I don't think he ever owned a PS3 or PS4 so why would he vote for them?

While joking it is funny how people can be OK for lack of tutorials and gooseberry fool in one game, but against it in another. Like people wanking off Dark Souls and then crying about Sea of Thieves.

Again, I am not on anyone's side, but I will now at least get to use the ignore feature because you are a child, not a fanboy, a child.

You do this sort of stuff all the time on me.

You have defended me, generally by saying im not as bad as other fanboys. :lol:

Look, honestly it's fine, I'm not getting into it.

It's cool, I've just ignored him, I can't deal with his gooseberry fool anymore. First time I've ever had to do this.

I'd imagine that means "our main competitor is charging more and so we want a slice of that pie, too". I *really* dislike this "online subs" thing; prices start out reasonable but, over time, prices rise and features drop. I used to be a multi-format gamer but there's no way I'm gonna pay out subs to each of Sony, MS and Nintendo.



Sony raised prices worldwide. This is a UK only price increase.

The “changing market conditions” must be something specific to the UK.

For those who don’t want a year-round subscription, Xbox Live Gold and Xbox Game Passes are free via Microsoft/Xbox/Bing Rewards. I’m currently saving up for 3 months of Game Pass, which is easily done if you have the Bing app and are on their email mailing list.

It seems quite tough to post in this thread without someone thinking that Microsoft is being "got at"; I've had it twice recently with no real reason behind it. I received plenty of stick in past months when some folk felt I "wouldn't let criticism take place" in other threads and yet in this thread it seems okay to instantly rage against even the mildest of perceived criticism. It makes me wary of posting here, tbh.
