I hope Sony starts charging for PSN soon so they can afford to hand out the dev tools for a unified online system this is getting old in a hurry.

i would gladly pay for psn...but since alot of people like free there should still be free service....except if you pay, you get more features...i want that.

so it should almost be like xbl gold and silver, except you can play online on the free one.

that way people can play for free or pay for more features.

I went on my 360 the other day(not long I've been pretty busy recently, haven't even been on psn much), and i forgot about how much more stuff i can do while in game and not have to quit a game, and that everything is unified, and i can see who is on, what they are playing, i can talk to them, etc.(the other thought was dang...i forgot how loud the 360 was lol)

hopefully this comes for psn soon...i don't know when home is coming along with a lot of features...but i really hope its soon.

but yeah....just head me in the right direction and i might still play in the beta....the good thing is GTA4 is right around the corner.

I don't know about two ID's but this is kind of like what EA did with Medal of Honor Heroes 2 for the Wii. They didn't use friend codes they used the EA lobby so you had to make a profile there. It was a way to bypass the Wii system. So this is the way Konami bypasses PS system.

i don't see what the big deal is. Your going to be spending hundreds of hours playing online but you can't take two minutes to sign up?

Yea they are bypassing ps system but the question is why??. The thing is this isn't a big deal as people are making it out to be. A couple of days after playing the beta we will all forget about this. This is annoying as hell but that is all it really is an annoyance. Anyone know ryan paytons email so we can email him and complain. It is a service konami likes to use and because sony offers developers freedom in such issues, konami is abusing this freedom. This isn't a case of psn service not unified its simply a case of konami wanting to do things their way instead of the way osny suggested. They are a JP company and have obviously been using psn id there without problems.

I say we just email the hell out of ryan payton on his blog and see if he can get it back changed for us westerns. That is his purpose there isn't it? to get the game more accessible to westerners

Guys just wait for the effing beta to show up, you don't have to sign up now...

If it's like the first effin MGO then you can create an account right when you have the effin beta.

That is a good point. It's not that it's a big deal and I'm sure after you sign up there will be no problem playing it for endless hours. The question that doesn't have an answer or even a reason to defend is why. PSN ID is sound and secure it's your 'gamertag' as it were and all online games have used it so what's the problem with MGO? Did they have a code of sorts that doesn't play nice with your standard gamertag or is it just company strong armed tactics.

Who's to say but while it is 'not a bit deal' it still raises the why question just because by all accounts they don't need to do this at all.

Exactly. Instead of pointing fingers at the psn why don't we ask why? We KNOW the psn can do it so this is obviously konami's decision and i say we harass ryan paytons blog till we get an answer

Is not a matter of time but a matter of what is the need for?

would you guys like to go to the bank and cash your check but the bank lady/man says sorry you need to have 3 extra accounts or you cant use the money... how would you feel?

I dont mind paying for live because its so so so so much better than the competition. If you cant afford 3 dollars a month you should consider another hobby.

keep telling yourself its only 4 bucks a months.. makes it feel like less of a rip off huh... 150 dollars man.. 150 dollars extra. and in another 5 months... it'll be 200 dollars for those that purchased on day one... 200 bucks baby, just to play online, and chat with your virtual friends that you dont have cell numbers for.

smokey I get you don't care for Live but really you are spending a game a year for online gaming. I still pay for FFXI that I hardly play ever but that's only 15/month. Live is a decent bill and I don't pile it up yearly that seems to be just you.

edit: lol snoop lol
