Yes, ranger, they had no excuse for that. To my knowledge, the game used the Unreal 3 engine, which is meant for all platforms, and free to play, pay to win? BAH! Why not just use an in-game currency system, like credits in Halo: Reach, which gives you the incentive to play more so you can get what you want. Plus, console players make a large customer base, right? If so, they would've made a lot more than with a "Free to Play, Pay to Win" scheme running on PC.

Bottom Line: Their business maneuver lacks what it needs most, FORESIGHT.
