There are games out there that are awesome to play, have great content, great visuals, and are great value for money.<\/p>\n

Then you have games that should be free – they are not, but they should be.<\/p>\n

If we look at free-to-play titles, they are free to download and play, but if you want to customise your look; get guns, maps, or new characters; and sometimes progress further, you need to cough up some cash.<\/p>\n

I think this model should be applied to the following titles.<\/p>\n

Every Call of Duty since Modern Warfare<\/h3>\n

There is no doubt that Call of Duty is one fat cash cow, with the publishers making millions each year from DLC alone.<\/p>\n

Why not make the base title free to play, and then reap the rewards as more gamers queue up to buy Snoop Dogg voice packs?<\/p>\n

The latest title in the series, Ghosts, had the usual gameplay and maps, but added some nifty extras through DLC – such as an Xmas gun, a space suit, the Dogg, and much more.<\/p>\n

I would buy all this DLC if I had not spent R899 on the actual game.<\/p>\n
