We have discussed it many times here on the blog, but video game pricing structures are failing the consumer on a monthly basis. New games--particularly annual release titles--debut now with more bugs than a dilapidated tenement. $60, whether for a perfect title or one that essentially comes with broken gameplay, is a good bit of coin. To answer the question at the top: Yes, tiered pricing needs to be the future of video gaming.

Holidays
I don't mind if my kids play
video games, but I have two rules: no more than 30 minutes per day, and nothing with blood, guts, guns, and other violent images.
That leaves out a lot of the most popular releases, like Battlefield 3, Call of Duty: Medal of Honor 3, and even
Batman: Arkham City. If you're a parent like me, that can create something of a quandary this holiday season: The kids have outgrown the educational stuff, but you'd rather not expose them to all that realistically-rendered brutality.
Fortunately, alternatives exist. If you want to give the kids something new for the
Xbox,
PlayStation or
Wii, you can choose from dozens of fun-filled titles that haven't a trace of violence, gore or adult themes.

Product Review
This week I take a look at another mobile gaming gem I actually broke down and bought recently. As you all know by now, my motto has always been "You can't beat free." But sometimes a good game comes along that justifies spending that hard-earned $2.99. That's right $2.99...stop laughing.
