I found this in a Kotaku post in which they posted via indie dev Stardock. A Bill of Rights for PC gamers, but some of these could appeal to gamers of other platforms as well. All ten are significant and while a few have been met, they all should be presented to other indie and major developers and practiced.

The Gamer’s Bill of Rights:

1) Gamers shall have the right to return games that don’t work with their computers for a full refund.

2) Gamers shall have the right to demand that games be released in a finished state.

3) Gamers shall have the right to expect meaningful updates after a game’s release.

4) Gamers shall have the right to demand that download managers and updaters not force themselves to run or be forced to load in order to play a game.

5) Gamers shall have the right to expect that the minimum requirements for a game will mean that the game will play adequately on that computer.

6) Gamers shall have the right to expect that games won’t install hidden drivers or other potentially harmful software without their consent.

7) Gamers shall have the right to re-download the latest versions of the games they own at any time.

8) Gamers shall have the right to not be treated as potential criminals by developers or publishers.

9) Gamers shall have the right to demand that a single-player game not force them to be connected to the Internet every time they wish to play.

10) Gamers shall have the right that games which are installed to the hard drive shall not require a CD/DVD to remain in the drive to play.

Yeah they should these are great.

I don't PC game, but I still agree that games should be finished :P

#10 FTW!

#1 and #5 would be nice, considering i just bought Team Fortress 2 off Steam, and it chugs horribly for no reason.

#1 is the only one I dont think will happen, I would love it to. But I cant see retailers budging that much. And yeah, overall pc gamers really get screwed over. We have more expensive hardware, yet it seems as if we get treated much worse by developers.
Another one that needs to happen, is that we dont get treated like dirty game pirates if we loose our cd key and need to re-install.

Amen

Stardock is based out of my hometown! Nice bill of rights, let's hancock that.

If #10 becomes true, #1 never will. Too many people would just install games to their HDD and return them. :P

You speak the truth man:D.

Saw it a while ago on Kotaku.

1 won't happen, but I like the rest of the list.
