People still play Tradewars... There are still telnet BBS's available and development continues on some versions.

If I'm going to play a game that consists almosts entirely of repetitive tasks, it better be text based!

I should have clarified in the previous comment that if you don't have the ability to dictate the terms of the contract (such as if you buy the product in the store), it is my belief that you can likely recover damages already if it is due to gross negligence of the developer in question in most jurisdictions. As mentioned in the previous comment, proving that can be another issue entirely.

The following is my non-professional opinion:

You can already sue developers.

Any development contract should have language indicating what is desired and minimum standards compliance (example: PCI compliance if you're handling credit card data.) If it is later found that the developer did not adhere to the terms of the contract, they can be sued for breach of contract.

Further, if the flaws in the software are extremely severe, even if the contract didn't explicitly call out the problems observed, they could be covered under gross negligence and the developer can be sued for that as well.

As with many other things, a new law isn't needed for this, the ones on the books are perfectly suitable. The money/time it takes to get a remedy to the issue via our court system is another matter entirely, but would be similar regardless of a new law.
