I agree with you 100% Sillasybin.

I played Dust 514 on the PS3 which is a Free to play MMO FPS game, and I love it. I didn't mind spending 20 bucks a month, or even 40  just to get the "other" currency in which they had, but they are not greedy assholes like those at Mobage.

I spent money in Dust, but honestly I never had an advantage over anyone who didn't. The best investment was to buy the XP boosters which gave you increased XP for X amount of times.

They had items you can pay for with real money, but it was nothing better than what you could get anyway with no real money.

Especially with a game like Transformers Legends, or any one of their other game. Someone earlier mentioned about costs and etc. This type of game costs nothing compared to games that come out on PC and consoles, and you pay 60 bucks for them, and you get something that looks a lot nicer, has a story, and is more of a real game

While I'm a huge transformers fan, I ask myself what is it about these types of games that are so addictive. I really don't know. I think it's the whole "What am I going to get next" from the space bridge, and competing and I do like to compete, but what I don't like is a company that doesn't give a crap about it's customers.

Mobage could learn some very important lessons from other companies like CCP who make games on a much larger scale, offer it free to players, and as CCP stated, is "Not a pay to win" game like we are seeing everywhere else.
