Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
I notice the game manager has changed once again. When I open it, there's a quick glimpse of that Casino Game under new ways to play, it then disappears and under New Ways to Play is a tab for the Free to Play games. The Casino game is on the page of free to play, but isn't the most prominently displayed.

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
I have a smartphone, but never play games on it. The only ones I have are old that I downloaded for my son before he got his iPhone. I certainly couldn't imagine playing a HOG on that small screen.
I guess I'm lucky that BF Casino only showed up once on my GM. I deleted it and it hasn't shown up again. I'm also glad the link to the forums is back on the GM.
I'm just starting to play the free-to-play games, and enjoy them. But I refuse to pay actual money for them. Because of that, they're a good way to kill a half hour or so, then I run out of energy and have to quit.

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
I have a dumb phone so I'm definitely not playing games on it.
I'm trying to play FAIRWAY TEE IT UP. I got to the end of the "free" courses. Then they wanted big golf bux to unlock other courses. I'll do that if i can accumulate free gold bux but they aren't getting RL money from me.

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
I really like the Free to Play games. It has saved me lots of money. I am too busy jumping from game to game I don't have time to get a real one. I almost completely finished Fairway Tee it Up. Just had I think 3 or 4 courses left. Certainly not enough to spend real money on. I have both of the real games of Fairway.
I am really enjoying Rooms of Memory (it is in the online section) but it is a Free to Play and Dark Manor is enjoyable to.
I have given up on Found. I think that was their first one. They seemed to have give up on it as well. Very slow with updates for the PC version and even slower for the iOS version.
I also play the Casino sometimes but there is no need to download the game .It is just a link to the online version anyways.

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
It's been announced on the BFG blog that the cloud streaming instant games service will end Oct 15.
Has anybody been able to access BFG's Facebook page? I used to be able to read it without signing in to Facebook, but today I'm getting a really weird page - all white with blue letters, just a generic sign-in page.
I wanted to check and see if Hondo had posted the highlights. Between battling wth Green Moon and Facebook, I'm ready to throw my laptop out the window.

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
Sorry, Tirama, but I steer clear of Facebook. Sorry you're also 'battling' with Green Moon. It sounds like you're not enjoying it much. 
I just came across this comment posted on the BFG Blog on 1 September. I don't know about you guys but I find it quite disturbing...

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
Sorry, Tirama, but no one from BFG has commented on anything in that Blog for ages - it's Josh's blog where he kept us up to date (sort of) about the changes to the forums. But here's the link ...
It's only the 4th or 5th down from the top so you should find it easily. But I sure can't believe they've allowed those sorts of names and images to be used! I think maybe it's a totally different crowd who play BFG Casino online than those who purchase downloadable games. And it's a crowd I'm glad I'm not a part of. Maybe, if that's where all the money is, they're not moderating it to keep all the paying players.

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
I went to BFG's Facebook page and followed the link for Big Fish Casino. It took me to another Facebook page but said I needed a different browser. Not willing to install something just to check out a game I have no intention of playing, but, if it's being played through Facebook, I imagine it would be Facebook that's allowing the "adult" content, and BFG would not have much, if any, control over it. Well, I suppose they could boot people out of the game, but who knows what sort of legal issues that would raise? Your Facebook avatar follows you from page to page, so I'd say it's up to Facebook to tell these people to clean up their act.

Re: Business Decisions in the Gaming World
Hooray! Riddles of Fate: Wild Hunt Collector's Edition has taken over the #1 slot for PC downloads. I was beginning to think Big Fish Casino had moved in there permantly.
