The Office of Fair Trading’s Principles for Online and App-based Games: FAQs (UK)

Why has the OFT published these Principles?
Following a market investigation into online and app-based games in 2013, the OFT had
concerns that consumers, and children in particular, were being subjected to practices that
were misleading, aggressive or unfair. The Principles are designed to clarify how the UK’s
existing consumer protection laws apply to online and app-based games.

Firefighting action RPG The Firemen 2: Pete and Danny coming to PlayStation

In this sequel to a 16-bit original, Pete and Danny are two firemen sworn to fight fires and save lives. When a blaze breaks out at the amusement park on Christmas Eve, the two go into action to rescue trapped citizens. Unlike most action RPGs, The Firemen 2 takes a different approach since Pete and Danny don’t fight goblins or stop world-ending evil, they are battling against flames and time to save the day. Players must use their water nozzle weapons and power-ups wisely or they will get licked with the intense inferno’s tongue.
