(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So my father in law(lady's father), builds and maintains government network servers. He told us on sunday that if he owned the psn it would be up on tuesday, have already caught the hacker(s) himself then warned all users of the network that he was going to start charging for the usage of PSN just like XBL.

Then he said, but since he doesn't own it, that the PSN will most likely be completely restored, without the hacker(s) being caught on the following tuesday. With more security precautions that they have to pay for so they will most likely will start charging users just like XBL.

Besides: "cool story bro".

What i'm actually looking for is:

If the PSN does start to charge but their servers are more up to par as XBL's are. Would you stay with ps3 and pay for the subscription, or would you say eff it and just switch to Xbox, because their servers are already up to par?

IMO, I think that it would be more worthwhile to pay for the subscription, see if things are better for alittle while, connection wise. If not I'll purchase xboxes and keep the ps3's just for the first party releases and play all the third party releases, on the xboxes.

I would go buy an xbox, I would not start paying for PSN just to go Online.

Sony sound desperate!

it wont! They advertised 'Free Online' and that's misleading and would cause yet another lawsuit.

i'd go straight back to xbox!

I'd stick with ps3 even if they start charging

Imah sony fanboy xD F*** microsoft with the xbox unless sony charges alot higher for something alot worse (which i doubt will happen) then i might switch but i still doubt that i would even then..

I would pay for it, i wouldn't mind but i have a lot of games for the ps3, like in the 50's, if someone was willing to trade my ps3 and all my games for their xbox and as many games as i have, i would do it, course i don't know anyone whos like that so why would i sell my ps3? I just stick to it, its not my life, im not too bothed atm, i just want it to come back online so i can get all this free shizzle everyones saying, also i think i might get a game as well, but im not sure what game to get.

If PSN was to charge i would go to xbox just to have something new

Id stick with my Ps3, id rather just play it offline if its gonna be pay either way. There will eventually be work-arounds for free play on PSN if it does go to Cost to play.

i already wanna go on xbox, so id just go on xbox, besides i prefer their controller
