Microsoft already makes tons of cash on Xbox Live Gold subscriptions. It also makes plenty of money from advertising on Xbox Live. Why not make some more? Despite being ad-driven itself,1 vs. 100could have its very own pay-to-play model, and Microsoft definitely won’t rule out the thought.
We first had a clue that Microsoft may be demanding extra cash for1 vs. 100when news of a mysterious“season pass”surfaced. All we currently know is that the first “season” of the game will be free, but that Microsoftcan’t tell us anythingmore about its future.
The basic jist of this seems to be that if1 vs. 100is popular, they’ll hike up the price. You know, kind of like what they did with XBLA when they realizedBraidandCastle Crasherscould be used as leverage in MS Point extortion. I know I’m definitely excited about the prospect of paying to play something on an ad-supported service that I already pay for.
