My pet hate is those smartphone games where you can only play for a certain amount of times or attempts. Then you have to wait an hour or a day or whatever until you can play again. Obviously geared purely towards getting you to pay for another go.

Infuriating.

I don't mind microtransactions on smartphone games in general. They're often free and have to make money somehow. But the ones that are purely there to exploit you really piss me off. It's a very fine line.

I long for the days when games weren't there just to exploit gamers.  Anything with a "Best value - pile of gems, £69.99" can go and get stuffed.  I don't mind paying a reasonable amount for a game, and I will also pay a reasonable sum for additional levels.  But too many seem to require payment to allow you to beat certain levels, and that's just theft in my opinion.
