City of Heroes (CoH)

[TheRealRoxas]

you all make it sound like 14 dollars a month is going to bankrupt you
i spend more money then that on booze in a week i think you should all take the choke hold off your wallets LOL i never played heroes but villians played a lot. I had a power level 19 corruptor it is very fun and worth the monthly fee
i would have to say D&D online is a good one to but i do hate wow with all of my soul mostly becuase of they put sratcraft on the back burner
i want to see jimmy kill kerrigan

Thats just it, that would mean i had less money FOR booze than i originally had in the first place without actually buying any!

Non a bad argument if you're and avid gamer and
That's $168 a year or three to six games plus the cost of the initial game. This is on top of other games that I might want to get. Even for the avid gamer the game would have to be four to seven as good as other games. I'm more of a casual gamer than I'd really like to be. This means it usually takes me longer to finish a game this making pay for time worse than, buy a game and play it on my own time.

Basically it works for some but not all

Alot of gamers (myself included...though I'll be turning this year, yay) are under the age of 18 and thusly lack any real source of heavy income and then it really is alot of money to spend.

I'm apparently barely older than Tsuyu. Huzzah!

...I'm not sure why that's important, because it isn't. I'm just in a weird mood.

Anywho, I wanted to play City of Heroes/Villains really, really badly; It's a wonderful concept. However, there are some issues:

For one, I have comparatively very little money that I can spend each week...I may be 18, but that doesn't mean I'm yet able to move out from under my parents :-P Then there's the fact that I have other games that I want to play. Then there's my friends, none of who have the game and I like to know the people I'm playing with before I do so. And so on and so forth.

I know what you mean, i dont want to pay for games monthly for the pure fact of i alternate between games alot and hardly play any games for a real long time unless they are very special. Im 21 and still live at home with parents so i know that feeling aswel

I got like 300 dollars from christmas still and selling my xbox so I can afford it... But I think my grandma is payin for it because u need a credit card 2 pay and I said "U use the credit card to pay for it and i will give you the money each month" but its been over a month or 2 and my acc hasnt been shut down... so I think she's paying without realizing it....

less booze is bad and if your not gonna play every day like me it realy isn't worth it
but watching heroes all the time has given me a hard core craving for BRAINS
