Games To Be Removed From Android Market In South Korea
Google is going to pull all games from the Android Market in South Korea in a month’s time - the reason is because the country’s regulatory system prohibits games from being sold before being rated. Google took this decision because it was impossible to have all games sold on Android rated by the local regulator.
Apple ran a similar exclusion of games in its App Store for iPhone users but South Korean iPhone users could still create a secondary account outside of Korea and be able to download the games available. South Korean game software makers also found a loophole by listing their games in the entertainment category of the App Store. We’ll probably see the same thing happen to games on the Android market.
