Strong disagree.  They charged, with is flatly wrong, and others followed.  Online should be free.  Only one doing online right and that is PC.

Unless you mean something else by internet age.

100% agree with you. It was an influential move for sure, but it makes me unhappy about online play on all consoles, and I remember very well who is to blame for that (doesn't mean the others are without blame either, of course). From a gamer perspective, that's one of the worst things Xbox has done in its existence due to its influence.

It played a huge role in moving me to PC.  $500 console, plus another $500+ to play online...  at some point the cost of online buys a GPU.  Then classic games being behind a subscription, that broke the camels back.  Consoles arent cheap anymore.
