A NEGS game is an acronym for Never Ending Gob Stopper game. The origin of Never Ending Gob Stopper is from the book Charlie and The Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl and describes a sweet that never ends no matter how hard you suck. This metaphor has been applied to video games in this context where there is no end and instead the developer continuously adds content to keep players playing. Other aspects of this may be that the game is free to play (FTP) and revenue is generated from the sale in game of virtual goods - micro transactions.
