I reported him, hopefully we won't see more of em soon!

Reported me for saying I don't think F2P will work for a top-tier MMO...you've gotta be kidding me!  Report away, I'm expressing my opinion on a cost model that has proven itself for top-tier games, and there is nothing trolling about that.  I DON'T believe that M$ would agree to foot the bill for server and staff cost to support a MMO, and I'm not sure what sony's cost model will be either, but sony seems to have no problem taking these risk.  It's itneresting that they HAVEN'T tried the F2P model on Everquest, and many of the game that cost very readily try with tho...interesting, and it's hardly trolling to point that out.

You do realize that Sony just released Free Realms, their own F2P MMO, a couple of weeks ago, right?
