Sony getting away with paid online is the greatest current gen achievement so far.

Sony charging for online play didn't affect you because you were already subscribed PS+. But the reality is relatively few PS3 owners had PS+. Sony said subscription went up 3x shortly after the release of PS4.

I certainly give credit to Sony for "free games." But most PS+ subscribers aren't there for free games, many don't even download the free games offered.

That isn't the point, the point is it's a better service than what XBL was because we got free games. That's why most people don't complain about PS+, if it didn't come with free games, people would be complaining a shit ton. Plain and simple.

Years ago when PS+ was a new service I said this was merely a stepping stone for Sony to charge for online play. Sony fans told me I wrong, got angry, etc.

A few years later, it came true via PS4. My prediction was people would defend Sony because of what the service offers. Even though Sony's primary goal was to charge people for online play. The demand for online play is bigger than "free" games.

That's exactly the discussion that's happening right here. No need to argue, I already saw this coming.

What are you going on about? This thread is about how sony got away with paid online without no one complaining. The reason no one complained is because of free games, plain and simple. I'm not even sure why you're even trying to argue this.

No need to argue? Literally the first thing you did was start a SonyToo discussion by starting an argument.
