But I already have The Quest (and haven't finished it enough to warrant buying the expansions yet...) Now if they came out and promised more expansions for free in this version, I'd jump on it. And the "having more apps" issue isn't because one you enable the expansions in the main app you can delete them off your device (which I think is a fantastic idea BTW!) mlkaufman Well-Known Member Apr 24, 2009 1,750 0 0 Chicago #6 mlkaufman, Dec 16, 2009 While I am not sure I would call it a fiasco, I will say that its generally not a smart idea to alienate your most rabid customers (IE, your early adopters). I own a fair number of Chilingo games, but you can be sure I have no plans to ever purchase another one in the first few weeks. Some I will probably purchase eventually, and some I will miss altogether as they fall off my radar, but their revenue stream from me is going to go down after this. They certainly are allowed to price and re-price their games however they like, but conditioning your customers to pause before purchasing can't be too smart an idea.
