Symphony=region locked? cant seem to find it on the store o.0

it's up on the Google Play storefront:
link.

didnt buy these because:
Clouds & Sheep Premium ->in app purchasing still active
Let's Create! Pottery ->i think i already have it.lol (free from amazon appstore)
Symphony of Eternity ->cant seem to find it; probably region locked
Granny Smith -> in app purchasing active
Asphalt 7: Heat ->in app purchasing active
Draw something -> craze over, i think+my drawing sucks
NFL Kicker 13->in app purchasing
OfficeSuitePro 6+->got it already
London bus checker->reviews say it crashes alot.

i dont see why we have to be subjected to in app purchasing since we've already bought the damn app. even if it's just minor things, i still find it to be a FREE app "feature"

for some reason or another, you'd have to pay within the app to advance.
i read some reviews before buying the games, and they all say once you reach a certain point in the game, it'll be hard to progress unless you buy boosters of some kind.

swiftkey is on sale!

whoever doesnt already have it, get it.
just get it.

brief on the app:
SwiftKey made waves for being one of the first Android keyboards to really embrace predictive text. Not only is SwiftKey able to correct your typing and guess that you meant to say even if you wind up typing gibberish, SwiftKey can scan your emails, Facebook posts, Twitter posts, SMS messages, and more—all to learn how you naturally type and who you speak to. All of that knowledge goes into its incredible predictive text engine that knows how you type better than you do. Available for phones and tablets with custom keyboards for each, SwiftKey is regularly updated with great features, incredibly powerful, and well worth the money.

free can only be used for a month (already written on the app page)

by purchasing apps that require/encourage in app purchasing, you're encouraging that business model.

so more and more developers/publishers will see this as a good thing and pull the same stunt. later on, all you'll be buying-regardless of the price- is a client shell with little to no content.

that's a future i do not want happening.

apps are locked to your google account, not phone.

you posted earlier not to take heed of user reviews.
in this area, user reviews are very important.

To take a statement with 'a grain of salt' or 'a pinch of salt' means to accept it but to maintain a degree of skepticism about its truth
Don't take heed - don't listen or pay attention

More or less the same thing-their opinion doesn't carry much(if any) weight

I'm somewhat old school-I like to purchase something, and be given something complete. If developers still enforce in app purchasing to complete a level, the base app should be free.

Having people buy an app only to be stuck due to severely limited abilities is just wrong.

no, you dont need a constant internet connection to play it.
the game comes with a free live wallpaper


EA has been doing that since their first available sale earlier(in this sale) @.@
just grab the EA Inc version, not the EA Netherlands version.
someone here mentioned before that the Netherlands version lacks updates compared to the inc version

so far so good, haven't encountered any of the issues they're complaining about.

wasn't interested in it at first, but after your post... bought

over spending but want some more good apps

most of the games on offer today seem to be touch screen friendly..but just remember Order & Chaos Online is a MMORPG, and actually requires a subscription

ALL EA games thus far have 2 of the same apps on sale.
others have noted that the games by EA Netherlands dont receive updates as often as EA Inc, so just stick with EA Inc.


screw it; bought Broken Sword

its in the description:

lol just got a call from Maybank asking if i made any purchases from Google.

"banyak nih!" he said while looking through the list xD

great to see they monitor our transactions and not blindly let us buy everything non stop -even if it is just 77 cents

at most 70% of the apps on sale

the sms is normal, the phone calls are somewhat out of the ordinary.
like what spikey2506 said, they probably look at the spending pattern.
from petrols and groceries to a sudden turn to non stop google...something must be off for that to happen.

i usually use my cards for petrol and steam games.
so far this google transactions are the first time anyone ever called me up from Maybank asking to verify the payment.

lucky that didnt happen to me during the 10cent sales last year

this i had to go through just a couple of weeks ago. so frustrating!
