PS3 to Have "FREE" Online Multiplayer
PS3Land has a quote from a SCEA PR Manager confirming that online gaming will be free on the PS3, which many doubted would happen.
Apparently, Kaz Hirai’s presentation at E3 had somehow missed “online multiplayer” as part of the basic, free service on the PS3, setting Internet forums and websites on fire (come on… people have to bash Sony on something!). This comes in direct juxtaposition with the subscription model for Xbox Live, differentiating Sony’s online ambitions from Microsoft. However, as the article points out, MMO games on the console may still have some sort of fee.
