Belgium rules that loot boxes are gambling - wants them banned in Europe

If nothing else though, all this noise about loot boxes, predatory tactics and pay to win will hopefully make game developers more reluctant to include them. The road we were on was leading to a bad place - very similar to where mobile gaming has ended up - I remember being able to buy games for my Galaxy S2 for around £5 that were the full games, some of the earlier Asphalt and Gameloft's version of Call of Duty games (was it Modern Combat or something like that), now the new versions of those games are all this freemium nonsense with hours of grinding or get the wallet out to progress. Hopefully all this furore will at least will steer us away from that course...
