May collect financial info… I guess only when you would buy something, but who knows. This is from the streets of rage page on google play.

Ah, also location and personal info. So, no thanks from me. They are all like that.

Weird. Nothing like that on iOS. Maybe because it was related to the online part that they are letting go? Anyway cannot you not block this type of outgoing with android?

It’s better to not go through hoops when you can just disregard their existence instead. Sends a better message anyways

In case you got not available in your country for iOS if you search for the name you will find it

I remember Crazy Taxi in the arcade being such a quarter muncher and it was so GD loud! I will give the designers major credit, you could not help but pay attention to that game with that metal pedal pounding and the noisy shifter. Any good arcade have the volume cranked to MAX and it was borderline painful LOL

Offering them for free instead of getting rid of them altogether? Just a nice thing to do
