Hello All,
I hardly post in this community since i'm so stretched as is in other gamer forum communities i belong to in membership. It seems this particular message board on game legislation is on anti this or that in light of its threads.
Here's something i found via my C-Net newsletter posted on Aug. 29th by Rich Brown.

PC gamers get bill of rights
Edge Online (http://www.edge-online.com/blogs/the-gamers-bill-rights) had an interesting post Thursday in which it reported that PC game developers Gas Powered Games and Stardock have collaborated on a PC Gamers' Bill of Rights. The full 10-point list below:
Gamers shall have the right to return games that don't work with their computers for a full refund.
Gamers shall have the right to demand that games be released in a finished state.
Gamers shall have the right to expect meaningful updates after a game's release.
It goes on to state another 7 bulletin points of the "Bill of Rights for Gamers" in the article.
The ECA would be a good consumer advocacy group to wrap itself around something like this for gamers. If not this particular movement by "Gas Powered Games or Stardock" than something similar in notion.
