'in-app' purchases - super monster bros.

[syntaxerror]

So, in-app purchases have been viewed by the cynical as a quick and easy way to turn coin, especially in crappy games marketed to kids, but SUPER MONSTER BROS has to be the worst example of this by quite a big margin. anyone seen worse than this?

That is awesomely bad.

I was getting a bit bored with them locking all the fun-looking stuff on the Simpsons Tapped Out game, til I just downloaded a hacked copy and got everything.

Oh dear me. Luckily Apple fixed the timeout purchase bug thingy, right?

NEW: SUPER CLOCK APP.

Only £1.69 to see the hour hand!

Then additional charges to see the minute hand.

Additional charges also necessary for hands to move.

ONLY £69 TO HAVE A FULLY FUNCTIONING CLOCK! Then a further £209 for an accurate one.

It looks like they nearly accidentally click on purchase a couple of times in that video.  I hope there's a confirmation screen and you don't end up buying them automatically when you select the wrong thing.  Still shit though in any case.
