"Free-to-play is the way that gamers should want their MMOs to be. If we don't do a really good job, we don't make a dime... it's entirely our responsibility to make sure you're entertained." Everquest Next director David Georgeson explains to IGN why he considers free-to-play superior to other, pay-up-front models.

World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition will release globally on Feb. 12 (a week from tomorrow.) The game is free-to-play for Xbox Live Gold subscribers. World of Tanks had been in an open beta on the console since December.
