WTF?
What does being a PC gamer have to do with not paying on online subscription?
I'm pretty sure I still have to fork out R120 a month for my subscription despite the fact that it's a PC game.

PC gamers don't pay a subscription to LAN. S/he meant its similar to PS3 in that sense.
Interisting observation...

If the mouse has two buttons, it can't be called a "real" computer
PS3 or XBox gamers don't pay a subscription to LAN - you still have to bring them all together though. Online gaming can still cost you a pretty penny though, PC or no PC. So, no I still don't understand the comment.

Name me one thing a Mac can't do that a PC can do!
Er... right click?

Dont think he meant LAN, but game online. To go online we have to logon to either the XBL or PSN. The PSN is currently free but you pay subs for XBL.
Now we're going in damned circles! I assumed online gaming (as per PSN vs Live), and said I have to pay for online play on some PC games. I was then told he was referring to LAN, now you tell me he is not referring to LAN. People, get your story straight! Look at this:
Not all PC online gaming is free, so how in the hell does that relate to PSN being free?

Since apparently this SA market is insignificant, lets look at subscription charges in the broader sense for overseas market. That being USD 49.99 / GBP 39.99 per annum or GBP 3.30 per month. This, in the UK is the price of a half-pint of beer! This is the equivalent of about R10 a month in this country, which is hardly going to break the bank.
Even in Rands that is R40 a month, which is a supersized Big Mac Meal!
Its much cheaper than a night out and it lasts a whole month.

OK. I gree with BurNThaM. I think Tyger meant online gaming. Hope that clears things up. 
The subs we talking about is to the network irrespective of the game that is played online. Currently I know of no games on XBOX and PS3 you have to pay subscription to the "game"/"server" like on PC. I could be wrong though.
