Both Xbox and PSN had to start offering extra bonuses to stop people from having that "Hey, wait..." moment. For a lot of people, the free games were the whole cake, not the cherry on top.

!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

its inevitable under capitalism
The lack of self awareness is amazing. Yep, fuck Microsoft! How dare they make a product that the gaming community chose to support instead of buying competing products! Shame on THEM for making the thing YOU voluntarily paid for!
We did this to ourselves. Literally.
As somebody with a PC, I don't understand this. Does this mean that console games are only subscriptions now?
If you want to play anything online with a console, you have to pay for a yearly subscription.

Paying to play exclusives online is fair game, servers need funding and all, but the fact that you need to pay for online games of third party devs who won't see anything from the extra expense is bull.
