Has anyone stopted to think that that extra 4 dollars a month could benifit MxO. I mean its more money, and i know its not directly to MxO but who knows, it could benifit us. The Vangaurd, EQ, and Starwars geeks could be building our future SMILEY

It doesn't matter if they make more money, unless they decide to budget it in this direction. Which given the track record, I doubt.

just stay with MxO and drop the rest of those subs cause MxO is the best game out of all of them imo. you will get that 15 dollar sub, and that is it

It's more money but it'll go toward the new game's Dev's pay packets and Sony's coffers. I can't see it Benefiting MxO in any way other than possibly encouraging people who play the other MMO's on the pass to start playing MxO......

If SoE gets more money they will have more money to invest in the Access games period. MxO is part of station access and Im sure it gets some revenue from the station accounts. I know it fun to think SoE is money grubbing whose focus is purely profit but that's not neccesarily in line with their business plan. I think there plan it more to levelage all station account games and to get people subscribed to the network. They have a couple of hot games in the works I will just have to buy the boxes and not put up a monthly sub for them.

Therefore, with each new Access game, the pass becomes more and more attractive. I imagine it's more attractive to the people who just play games to entertain themselves vs. trying to min/max one game at a time. MxO isn't neccesarily a game people go out to buy. I think new players are probably more likely on the pass and checking it out because they can. I have been really impressed by the game so far and am glad I got the pass just because of it. I like the other games too and find value in 30 bucks a month for EQ2, SWG, MXO and Vanguard. The offerings will only get better even if that's means price increases.

who seriously plays all those games on a regular basis to justify 30/month? And the games included on the station pass are hardly attractive. Everquest maybe, but that's one game for 30/month. I currently sub only to MxO for 15/month, so it makes more sense to sub to one game rather than a package of games you'll never play.

And tell me one corporation whose aim is not profit, and I'm talking big-time, the likes of which Sony can accurately be labelled a part of.
