Why exactly should it be free? Servers aren't free to maintain.

Some services should be paid. Having the ability to have cloud save is something that is a premium. But the ability to simply play online is not. It has never been until they saw that its nothing but bucket loads of money for something that cost minimal to run. Not to mention third parties run server for tons of games but never get a dime, its just pure profit

Again I must state, a companion smartphone app, that could be paid, maybe voice chat, and cloud saves. But the plain ability to play online should be free.

I mean if it took that long it's probably cause its bringing something to the table. 

They might sweeten the the deal a bit more, but the fact still stands that online gaming should be free.

But, based on what, exactly? Saying PC gaming is free doesn't mean it "should" be free. It's very nice it is, and would be awesome if it was free on every console, but it seems a bit entitled to say it should be.
