A good analysis of why pay-for-perks games are de facto not "free", from Dmitri Williams, posting on TerraNova (Link: ) about a Sony service to allow people to buy and sell virtual objects for their games:
Even if you don't care about the intellectual property theft perpetrated by Medievia, Dmitri's reasons should be sufficient to convince you to avoid the "pay-for-perks" trap, especially when the community offers any number of fair (free or flat subscription) outlets for competitive play.
