DC Universe Online: releases today, who's getting it?

[goku2778]

just like the title says...i was stoked as hell since i saw the teaser trailer a few months ago...got stoked again when i saw the commercials...got stoked again today knowing it was releasing today.

went to Gamestop.com to see if it's available, it is...read some reviews, i'm not buying it now. apparently it's a pay to play online game, not just 1 time either to pay to play, it's monthly. it's 15$/month to play online, and from what i read as well it's that price for ps plus subscribers...if that's really the case, i heard pc gamers will pay 200$ for a lifetime of online gaming, yet we'll pay the monthly.

so i'm out...who's in??

HAAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHA FOOOOOOOOOKIIAAAAAAT


I will ridicule the person who pays this much for a game. On the other side, if it's this expensive, IT SURELY must be decent, i shouldve tried the beta out

the beta users all loved it but maybe only 1 of them said they'll pay all that money for it to play it...i think it's nuts for a game to pay that much to play online

there are internet connections that cost that much. There's cell phone plans cheaper than that. With the money you spend in one year playing that one game, you could get an used console. With 15 dollars in one month, i could make an average of 5 1/2 good sandwiches to feed the body that uses the internet connection that already costs as much as the damn game. With 15 dollars a month, i could save a child from slavery and support it for 6 days. Therefore, it's safe to say that this game not only robs people of their money, but it also kills and supports the slavery of children. In fact, it's downright microsoftian. I bet they even released it on 360, and pretend to charge people 15 dollars over the internet fee scam that is xbox Live. But no one would sink that low, right?

lol ^^ i thought about the 360 version...i have the console so thought why would they charge for it...went back to gamestop.com, it's a Sony and PC only game release!! go figure...

also add the amount, if it's true that it's needed, for PS Plus...which is a 50$/year subscription fee...so:

59.99 for the game + 50$ for ps plus 1 yr + 15$/mth =
for 6 months you're looking at 200$...without tax
for 1 yr you're looking at 290$ for this game alone!!! not worth it!

but uh, ps plus isnt needed for net play..

i was just if so...cause the reviews i saw some said that, but here's the pricings:
