One game I really love right now is maple story. I love the classes and the cash shop ( when it opens) so i like the IDEA of the cash shop. It seems like a great game to me and i think there should be more games like it.

EQ.... they need to make like a free game like it, it would be awsome.

yeah, i have noticed that there is almost not one single game which doesent require you to use money on it.
Kal-online and few dont, but within reason theres not many.

Everquest like that, but free, would be good, i only played trial, but fun, and geat enviroments, pity now though im not a fan of magi, wizards and stuff.
Maybe someone in time will make one like it.

The use of Cash shops where the game is free but you can spend money to get equipments and gold has been around and seen in Project Entropia and Gunbound.  There is a problem with this method.  It hasnt to date become a profitable method of subscription.  Thus far it has only proven to maintain the servers they run on.  Update funds are limited however.  This is why many still use the monthly payment method.
