Rocket League

Exactly mate. They should be criminally charged for fraudulent transactions like any other entity that makes false promises. They should be given the harshest punishment as well so that it serves as a deterrent to any other gaming company that is thinking of trying the same thing.

No problem mate. It happens to the best of us. Then again, there are so many horrible ripoffs, the few good alternatives are really scarce. If you're trying to search for better alternatives, the list is even smaller...

I never gave them a pass. I just said that they should be separated into different categories.

Personally, I'd rather they tone down on the microtransactions. I agree that they can charge for some of the optional game modes.

When I used to wail on my friends in Pokemon on the Game boy. They deleted my save files. Needless to say, I've not spoken to some of them ever since...

I know it didn't come out this year but Rocket League is my favorite game this year because of just how easy it is to get into it. It's a game you can play casually and enjoy without having to devote extended hours to it.

Thanks for the laugh but you do have a valid point. It does come down to lack of understanding because of what gaming was perceived as in the past compared to now.

Well, I normally designate a period of time for gaming per day and try my best to stay within that time frame. It helps me to be productive every day. It's a relatively simple technique but it takes a lot of discipline to actually stick with it.

When it comes to poor quality games, EA is up there with the absolute worst. Bandai Namco isn't much of gaming company though. They're more known for action figures. Konami is definitely a terrible one but Nintendo still produce quality content although they have hopped on the greed bandwagon in recent years. Sony are a greedy bunch as well but they do also have some quality titles.

I still have the original Final Fantasy 8 CD collection and my old PS1 memory card stashed away in one of my drawers. It's a personal favorite of mine...

Syphon filter was a great game to me and I enjoyed the original game on PS1. Sadly that's the only one I've ever really played for any extended period of time so it's my favorite by default.

The concept for Sonic hasn't changed much over the decades so every sequel becomes pretty boring and repetitive after a couple of hours. You're analogy about Sonic games is absolutely spot on. I mean, Sonic Drift has to be one of the oddest games of the franchises. He's already fast on foot so why would he need a go kart?

I think he was talking about good alternatives not the terrible, cheaply made ripoffs...

There are many factors at work here but the biggest one is the licensing. It costs EA and other companies millions of dollars just to get licensing rights to register teams into their sports franchises. I agree that upgrading the base game constantly would be less costly for both sides but lets be honest here - do you really think these greedy gaming companies want to lose out on any profit?
