This spring, Need for Speed: No Limits will be available on Android and iOS. The only problem is that there will actually be limits in the game. Electronic Arts, the company behind the Need for Speed franchise, will utilize in-app purchases with this installment. The in-app purchase that will make players very angry is to fill a vehicle with gas. Yes, Electronic Arts wants you to pay for gas like you already do with your real car. Of course, there is the option of waiting on a timer to countdown until the gas tank is refilled at no charge. Furthermore, Electronic Arts has in-game currencies. So you can actually pay for in-game money to pay for the gas to play the game. Makes sense, right? Sure.

Hit the break for the game's trailer.

You have got to be kidding me! Paying for gas in a video game is ridiculous.
