You can actually change the options so that a password is needed before any purchase, and you can even turn off in app purchases. Apple do have restrictions, what more can they do really?

Actually there is another party you could blame. The companies making these exploitative games. Even if Apple are to take any responsibility at all (which I still think they shouldn't have to) the parents and the game developers are still more to blame. Apple can't always compensate for stupid parenting. Maybe they…

That is a problem, but again isn't it the responsibility of the parents to keep an eye on their children when using devices such as these? When I mentioned this to my Dad he said "Why can't you just buy a voucher instead of linking your credit card." Sure, linking a card is a lot easier than going to the shop, but…

Again, that is too much for some parents.

You have it sorted. Shame many others don't.

Regardless whether it is for the family or an individual the parents have a responsibility to keep their eyes on their children. It isn't Apple's responsibility.

You'd be surprised. Regardless, wouldn't you keep an eye on your own child if they use your phone? I'm sure you would, yet many still wouldn't. Again, it's stupid parents.

It's the parent's fault as far as I'm concerned. Who in the right mind would link their credit card details to an any device they have bought for their children? I'm not a fan of Apple at all really, but they shouldn't have to pay back money for parental stupidity.

Looks like the best ad ever.

Nice!

I've know this for quite some time, but this was a good read.

But will I be able to stream the games I already own for no extra cost? I find it rather suspect that Sony hasn't let us know by now. If we do have to pay an additional cost it will be utterly ridiculous.

The original Call of Duty, which was released in 2003, was the earliest first-person shooter I can remember in which you could aim down the sight of your gun. Nothing before that comes to mind. It's a shame as well, because that Call of Duty game was so good. Puts to shame the crap that the series is known for today.

Bless him :P

I live in Kingston upon Hull, we are FORCED to use Kingston Communications. They have a monopoly over the area. I have literally no other option unless I use a dongle, but dongle's are hugely unreliable. If it was as simple as that I would have changed years ago.

'Option' is the one word I think should always apply to digital. In any industry. I download games, but I also buy physically. But digital games don't satisfy me, as the games are nothing more than files on my computer. The only games I download are games that are only available digitally. If digital becomes standard,…

I don't think anything Microsoft try and do will get the Xbox selling well in Japan. Nintendo and Sony have a death grip on that market. And history also points to the fact that American video game hardware never sells well in Japan. The Xbox 360 is the highest selling North American console of all time, and it still…

I'm not against digital as an option, or even the most common way of buying games. But I am against a fully digital industry.

There's nothing 'nostalgic' about wanting to keep a physical market. Digital simply doesn't appeal to me, and nostalgia isn't the reason. I simply get zero satisfaction from owning a digital game, as it is nothing more than a file on my computer. Maybe it's because I'm a collector, or maybe not. That's not to say I…

I live in the UK and my internet is complete shite.
