i think i read that it was a 'premium' service, meaning you get exclusive access to content, but it doesn't prevent you from playing online for free yet

Unlikely considering all the advertising saying they have free online play.

Hello again,
the message I recieved was not through email but a message left in my message inbox on my psn account
and for a pic I don't have a camera
But it says word for word " psn will be charging fees starting January 12th, 2010."
now whether or not that is for a "premium" or basic online play, I don't know because it
dosent state what the charges are for.
I was more worried that I don't get shafted with fees later on.
But I will keep u guys informed if I hear any more on this. Posted via RS Mobile | |

i got the same message that was forwarded from one of my friends. If they did charge for online, I bet it wouldnt be more then $5 a month/$60 a year. I don't mind paying. What they really should do is have free and paid accounts. The paid ones would get exclusive extras or something worthwhile.

you guys talking about this chain letter that's been going around? http://boardsus.playstation.com/play...sage.id=716309
It's just a chain letter. I'm sure it's not the first time you guys have seen one.
There are whispers about Sony considering a switch to a fee-based system, but until that is announced by Sony themselves, just ignore the rumours.

$20 a month? That's more than WoW and XBL.
When you read things, do you actually consider in your head if they make sense? I don't think so.

Doesn't matter if they charge 20/month or a year
PSN is viable compares to Live because it's free. Online gaming is so much better with Live, a lot more player, and much less lags

If they do start charging, I doubt it will be for the overall service like XBL. It will probably be more like an all-in-one MMO subscription base, similar to what they're doing with their PC MMO games. That's my guess

LOL paying for online pfffft :P
I ♥ pc and you all should know why:
90% online game play has better structure and is free
(unless you are 1 playing mmorp like WoW or 2 running your own dedicated server which has is perks too)
also games are mostly cheaper(i cant think of one that cost more...)
downside, a pc costs more to build(unless u built it at the same time when ps3 first came out lol)
but i should really be making this rant, since i own every system any ways lol woot barging rights!

Well they should charge.
The latency and voice on PSN is not comparable to XB Live.
I definitely would pay for this rumoured premium service.
