I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not.
The game's called Kwari. It's an online first person shooter. It's free to download. You only pay for the guns and amo you use in the game.
How do you win cash? You pwn people in the game and be the one with the most kills. Awesome right? You get money per kill depending on the kill. The pay ranges from one cent to one dollar. Headshots most likely paying out the most. Sounds like all those years playing CS and Quake will finally pay off!
The catch? People kill you, you lose money too. People get what, 20+ kills in CS depending on the match. Just imagine you being the one getting killed over and over again.
People have already ended their lives because of video games(WoW and Evercrack)
I can see this turning bad pretty fast. We're talking about a video game genre that's already extremley competitive. Add money for kills in there and you've got a deadly combination.
This is going to add more fuel for anti-video game politians. Expect to see Jack Thompson on CNN about this before it's even released.
