None of the previous Sony published titles had this level of popularity.

I think that's called "moving the goalpost". Also, I doubt Last of Us can't be considered popular.

I’m not trying to move the goal posts, just pointing out why Sony thought this was the game to start forcing this in.

It only got this popular partly because of the lack of a PSN account to play. Developer said they had somewhere between 5 and 20 times the number of players they expected.

Good luck explaining that to the suits.

I'm not going to. Ultimately, Sony is a megacorp and I'm just one dude. I'll simply voice my displeasure to people inquiring about them, and never trust a Sony product or promise in my life again. They probably won't give 2 shits, and I'm fine with that.
