EA Sports’ Microtransaction U-Turn, Garfield Kart’s Jab & Malware Threat | FOX on Games – Video Game News & Industry Analysis

EA Sports has officially pulled all paid progression options from the College Football 27 Dynasty and Road to Glory modes after fans organized a successful “CFB Play, Don’t Pay” campaign against what they described as a $100 cash grab. We also discuss the bizarre social media feud between Garfield Kart and Mario Kart Tour following the latter’s scheduled shutdown. Finally, we break down a serious security alert: a federal complaint has been filed against a Florida-based hacker who allegedly used malware hidden inside four video games to compromise 8,000 devices and steal over $220,000 in cryptocurrency. Plus, I sit down with FOX News Rundown host Jessica Rosenthal to discuss the joys and challenges of gaming with children as they reach console-ready age.
