That was a horrible analogy. Same goes for the house, you dont just pay for it and live comfy in it, unless of course you dont want electricity, water cable, etc. and taxes. "play the entire game without having to get credits to get upgrades to actually complete the game" Again, idiotic. You can play the entire game without buying energy. I did. You can. Everyone can. STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT FREE STUFF! Nobody is forcing you to buy the extra energy, and its not like you HAVE to have it. Especially since it matches you up with people at your level. They are simply giving you the option of leveling up faster. Is it a crime to try to make a profit, especially when your giving away a great free product which most likely took a lot of time and money to create. So stop complaining and trying to sound smart because you just look like an ignorant jerk Dreamcee, your an idiot

My favorite one is "but u hav 2 pay 2 keep playin". NO. YOU. DONT! You never ever have to spend a cent on this game. You can still level up and upgrade your equipment without spending money. Another point I'd like to make is that this game clearly isn't designed in the sense that you'd be sitting around for hours playing it. It's a pickup-and-play a match or two type game. Maybe when you're on the bus or break in school or work. By the time you are ready to play again, your energy is recharged and you can earn more credits. Many other developers have struck it rich with this business model of free to play, plus micro-transactions to enrich the gamer's experience. Take Maple Story for example -- that game has earned billions of dollars globally thanks to a similar business model. All in all, absolutely nobody should be complaining at this point. Ngmoco is about to give away an amazing game that we should be excited about, not crying over its business model.

I can imagine in 6mths time all games will be free to download but to play the full game you will have to actually continually spend money on dlc and never actually have anything to show for the money spent. To dvessel Im the consumer that pays for things I don't expect to get things for free but I do expect that when I pay for a game that to complete it I don't have to continually put more money into it when a car you have is bought and paid for you don't continue to give money to the manufacturer to beable to use it to te best of it's ability same for a house same for every single thing in retail when you buy a house af I along with many others would prefer to buy a game and then actually play the entire game without having to get credits to get upgrades to actually complete the game, trust me this is only the start once other folks click on to what they can get away with in regards of costings the gaming experience on both touch and phone will become rather more expensive.

Knowing full well some individuals can't have the pie others made they stand on the sidelines desperate to get a whiff. All they can do is demand how it should be sliced. Pointless, no? Make your own damn pie. :) How about this one?
