Good point. But as good as it may be, there's no point in argueing, because there seem to be too many that think giving money away is ok.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Paying $10 each month for gameplay is better than buying 5-10 games each year, each one of them for $40-$60.

We barely know anything about either game, and you won't even consider playing SL, becaues its a WC copy (tell me, what game that takes place in space didn't originate from WC?), so how can you make a statement like that?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Who says that I won't buy SL? I probably will, but I don't expect it to be especialy good in anything.

But FS2, SL, or any kind of MP that there can be in an SP WC game, won't compare to what you could do in POL. Death match/squad wars, could all be available for free in POL, but the main point of the game is to interact with people all over your country, and the entire world. $10 a month isn't that much and internet connections won't probably have to be faster than 56K.
We already have 10 SP games with 6 add-ons. I enjoyed all of them (at least the ones I have) but it's time for something new. And even though we don't know practicly anything about POL, we do know that it's coming.
