@Pre_ordered_PS4 F2P if you pay our yearly subscription, hahahahaha..

You're seriously blowing this way out of proportion. They've never gone down for weeks at a time for maintenance, not once. You're flat-out lying, and doing it poorly if I might add.

@hurryup8 You've clearly never actually played a PS3, or at least played online via PSN. It goes down for 6 hours at a time, tops, and that's for server maintenance.

@grokh Umm.. no? I've played the game plenty, and it's entirely possible to play the game for hours on end without spending a penny.

@L1quidSnak3PL @yearssomuch And just so it's clear, this is for MULTIPLAYER F2P games? These are generally the kind of games that are F2P anyway, I only ask because of Sony's specificity in regards to PS+ being a requirement for online multiplayer.

From what I'm reading all F2P games on PS4 will be simply that, free to play. Microsoft keeps digging the hole deeper and deeper...

@bushferret Haha, someone hit up Google for some big words. But hey, you gotta do what you gotta do to make the Sony crowd look bad, right?

@CyDidley Because we're in the middle of a console war, and GameSpot knows this is fanboy bait. Plain and simple.

So can someone confirm something for me? I know Sony's going down the free-to-play route as well, will their F2P games require a PS+ subscription?
Why would any console manufacturer, Sony or Microsoft, advertise F2P games, yet require an online subscription to access any of them? If I'm paying a subscription to play them, directly or indirectly, then it's not free. End of story.

Either way, who cares? WoT isn't that great anyway.

HEY GAMESPOT, THIS ISN'T CONSOLE WARS-ORIENTED JOURNALISM, WHAT'RE YOU DOING?!

@udubdawgz @strothers101 He's clearly a troll.. his avatar and his comment make that obvious.
But with a name like 'udubdawgz', I wouldn't expect you to catch that.
