    When I think of the number of talented MMO developers out there who are trapped making cash shop mobile games, I cry a little on the inside.

    Wow that's hilarious! I don't get how people can put money into mobile games :S

    Maybe it was the money he spent that helped fund those commercials lol.

    Haha, seriously...

    I'm not one to tell people how to spend their money...Oh wait, it wasn't his money.  Never mind.

    The only reason I know anything about that is game is because it had a rather attractive female on their TV adverts. Apart from that I have no idea what that game is actually meant to be. Then again I have never (and I really do mean never) bought a mobile phone game. I just don't see the point. I can't imagine them being very fun. The only time I've really played games is when you used to get Snake on the old Nokia handsets before smartphones were really a thing.

    That is absolute insane. I could understand if that million went to crowd funding a game such as Pantheon, but for microtransactions? Crazy.

    I haven't played any of these games either.  I'm just trying to wrap my head around what exactly 1 million dollars is supposed to buy you in game.
