Astro Channel 200

If most of you all didn't noticed, there used to be a free games channel here at 200 where one can play mind boggling games like boxes, reversi and the likes for free. As I haven't been free to play, I tried to access the game menu yesterday and was excited to see that it has been upgraded and with all new games. I tried my hands hoping to kill time but all these are FREE PREVIEW FOR A TURN/GAME. What the... We've been paying our astro bills and enjoying the fre games and all of a sudden its been revoked and now we need to pay to even play games.

Fine, I tried to read more on the payment and walla... RM3 for 24 hours on top of the normal sms charges apply for them to reply the code to me. I'm like What the... Astro is increasing its price and now charging an arm and leg to play the once free games? Who is their right mind would pay RM3 to play games on top of the monthly subscription for the other 'interesting' channels that's provided by Astro.

Oh yeah, I've forgotten that we can only utilize one channel at a time while paying for whatever channel in the various package.. Now wouldn't it be great if Astro reimburse our view time everytime it rains heavily thus disrupting our viewing pleasure?
