Not really that big of a surprise. All this suggests is that Sony is years behind the curve when it comes to post-launch monetization of their games. They'll happily shed their "last bastion of AAA single player" crown for increasing their quarterly revenue.

They are a publicly traded company after all. Every company beholden to shareholders will inevitably be forced down this route in order to stay competitive in this market.
