All Systems Wars banter aside, I think Sony is purposefully not marketing their F2P games at launch. They're likely hoping that, at the very least, Shadowfall will win some popular acclaim and that people (such as myself) are just burnt out on the current gen hardware and ready for an upgrade.
When hundreds of thousands of these things are all over the place and people start downloading the lesser known F2P stuff, I think it will sink in that there is plenty of games to play on the PS4 despite this current penis measuring contest with launch lineups. Unlike the last generation, Sony isn't in the position of just having a small trickle of noteworthy games coming out the first year, they actually are backing up their launch with a lot. It sucks that Driveclub hurt the notion that PS4 has a weaker launch lineup rather than help it, but people need to stop fooling themselves if they think the PS4 is going to be collecting dust.
If not for just the simple fact that the PS4 is infinitely more developer friendly than the PS3 could ever hope to be, they have ensured that they can keep games coming in steadily this generation as opposed to the infamous waiting game of the PS3 era. Just my 2c..
