God I hate the EU. By that definition they have to ban everything free because nothing is free in life.

This would protect alot of kids of being swapped by game developers!!! If a costs money they should NOT to be allowed to promote a game as free to play simply becouse it's not true!!! And I hate people who don't know nothing about the EU but are complaining about the EU!!!

Everybody knows that F2P means there are transactions. It is no different than AT&T calling a cell phone "free" but you have got to pay for a plan to get it.

No, not kids. And I'm pretty sure a lot of the complaints are coming from parents whose kids have bought a shit load of stuff in-game, while thinking it was free. And don't say every parent knows that f2p have microtransactions, because that's just not true.
