I agree with most of what you've written, but:

"While most MMOs will release free balance and bug-fix patches throughout the year, very few add new content for free"

..what the hell?

I can't think of a single MMO that I've played (and I've played at least a dozen) that DIDN'T add new content for free. While the fact that ALL new content for EVE is free distinguishes the game from a lot of others, you can't deny that everyone else adds SOME new content for free, even if they also sell expansions.

Thanks for pointing that out, that was a touch of bad grammar on my part. The sentence was meant to say that very few MMOs add all new content for free. I've corrected the sentence above.
