I had the 360 and finally broke down a long time ago to get the PS3 for a few games that were exclusive at the time. I was a PS hater for most of my adult console life. Then I started to realize I was paying Microsoft a yearly fee for a system I already bought and PS wasn't asking anything for the same services. The next system I bought was the PS4. There was some FUD about PS4 to start charging the same way XBox does, but alas, I can play my Call of Duty games ONLINE without paying Sony a cent per year. I believe the yearly subscription killed the Xbox.

As a counterpoint, XBOX Live subscription is not too expensive, offers a lot of value through bonuses and freebies, and most large studios are now offering their own subscriptions for users of their games.

What do you mean, FUD? Sony's own website pretty clearly lays out that online multiplayer is a feature reserved for PS+ subscribers. https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/get-help/help-library/playstation-plus/playstation-plus/playstation-plus-membership-and-playstation-4-online-play/ https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/get-help/help-library/play...
