After being available just five days in locations like New Zealand and Australia, Real Racing 3 has been updated to include less wait times and freemium hooks. The change was made in response to several negative reviews on the game's App Store page, nearly all of which are complaints about its perceived abuse of the free-to-play model.
It looks like Australia is shaping up to be a large source of news in the mobile and social gaming industry. Less than two months back, KIXEYE announced their new development studio down under. Today, gaming supergiant Electronic Arts is happy to announce the unification of two of Australia's biggest developers into their new name: Iron Monkey and Firemint are combining to become Australia's largest game development company: FireMonkey.
