I went to buy Eternal Legacy HD (a jrpg) for Android on Gameloft's website (only $2.50) and there was some sort of error when I hit confirm when I tried to pay via paypal. Grr. I don't wanna give my credit card details to Gameloft if I don't have to. The PSN debacle made me paranoid and it seems like the hackers are hacking other gaming companies right now.

Also after reading Gameloft's FAQ I found out that Gameloft's DRM is pretty batshit annoying ala the Wii. Apparently you're only allowed up to three years to re-download the games you purchased and in order to re-download games onto a new Android phone (if you wanna upgrade in the future) you have to contact Gameloft directly and provide them with your payment details. So basically I'd be effectively renting the game for 3 years instead of actually buying it (apparently Gameloft DRM doesn't let you physically transfer the games yourself from phone to phone and you can't back them up. So if I go get a new phone in 3 years, I pretty much don't own the games anymore and I'm SOL).

Why the hell doesn't Gameloft just put up all their games on Android Market like everyone else? This is horseshit. They have Modern Combat 3 (no interest in that. If I wanted to play Modern Warfare, I'd play it on my Xbox 360 or PS3) and some other stuff on Android Market but not Eternal Legacy HD and the Dungeon Hunter games (which is what I'm interested in).
