I don't like children's computer games. I can't stand them.

Yes, their educational, their fun, the kids learn a lot, but in the end they are all ripoffs.

Even after you install them, they only work with the original DVD in the computer.

Let me ask you. How long do you think DVDs survive with kids in the house using them?

Not long. They get scratched, they get lost, they get broken. Very quickly they are useless.

I'm annoyed. A few months ago I invested in a bunch of these games for my kids. At first they were great.

But eventually, almost half of them crash in the middle because of scratches (or software incompatibilities). 25% won't load anymore at all for who knows what reason, and the rest, despite having installed the software, my kids don't remember where they hid the original DVDs, so now they are useless icons on the screen.

The children's gaming industry needs to find MODERN technology solutions (such as using the internet) to protect their property, but expecting young kids to understand how to properly care for a disk (or that their parents have the unlimited energy to keep track of the disks at all times and won't let their kids run the games by themselves) is unfair and wrong.
