Sony adds subscription

Remember how Sony said the difference between them and Microsoft was Microsoft charges for Xbox Live, but Sony would be free?

Sony just introduced Qore, a "a highly interactive, monthly lifestyle gaming program covering the world inside PLAYSTATION", and "will feature exclusive news, developer interviews, in-depth game previews and behind-the-scenes looks at PlayStation games and special access to game demos, special beta invitations, game add-ons and other downloadable game-related content."

Qore is either $2.99 per monthly episode, or $24.99 for a yearly subscription of 13 episodes (Que?).

So, to review: For half the price of an Xbox Live Gold subscription, you can get once-a-month episodes.

But remember, PS3 online is still free!

(For what it's worth, the content does sound cool.)
