I'm glad to see all your optimism about this. With all these great games for free I'm worried that Sony will not get enough revenue out of it and it will become another money black hole. I'm really afraid that during this cycle Sony will have to put older or less popular games on plus. |
Wink-wink, nudge-nudge!
...and it will be hard to backtrack, once they've spoilt users thusly.

Yes, exactly that spoiling is never good. Gamers are spoiled by a lot of things and they react very aggressively if someone takes that away. Take Games with Gold. It's pretty much a laughing stock, not because the games are bad but because Sony spoiled everyone with fresh and acclaimed games.
Usually there are giant backlashes from the gamer community if a company decides to take just a tiny bit away or decides to charge a cent more for something. Because gamers are entitled little shits this could get dangerous for Sony.

Every action has a reaction. I see that the PS3 model of free giving is not going to continue to PS4 due to the sheer lack of games to give for free.

I don't think there will be a lack of good games for PS4+. With KZ, Knack, Driveclub and Infamous there will be enough high profile first party games in the first half they could give away for the next holidays. Giving away first party should eat a lot less of their profit since they don't have to pay off the studios. And there are always high profile indie games to give away.
They should be able to give away a AAA game at least every other month and cool indie games will fill the rest.
