I've never known any different but it still always felt like paying twice to the Internet to me. My first console with online connection was an Xbox which required Live. Before that they just didn't have any network connectivity at all.

PS2 and GameCube had network adapter for MMOs.

My parents never would have got me something like that just for one or two games.

I know, I got the GC adapter hoping to have multiplayer Mario or Metroid games. So imagine my surprise when those never came.(I was more PC gamer back then and multiplayer is already plenty.)

True, I paid for it on the 360 back in the day to play Gears and Rainbow 6 Vegas. Haven't since I've had a PC.
