Those worried that with the rapid growth of PlayStation users thanks to some recent major releases (Metal Gear we’re looking at you) that Sony may start charging for use of PSN need not be afraid. PSN Head Eric Lempel has these calming words for you:
The fact that it’s free is nice for consumers who want to try out the online experience, those who may be new to it and may not be ready to commit to spending dollars, and that’s a really good message for us.
With the slowly improving experience, PSN may reach the feature set of Xbox Live soon enough (cross-game voice chat Sony, cross-game voice chat). Then, Microsoft will have a tough time explaining why we’re still paying for the service.
