which are really easy to go through

已有 60 次阅读2012-3-2 12:51 |

Clickgamer certainly made my weekend, or at least 15 minutes of it. The company is responsible for one of the most popular iPhone and iPod touch games available in the App Store right now. I am talking about Angry Birds. This puzzle game has reached version 1.4,If youre one of the many, which is now available to download as a free update. Of course youd need to have Angry Birds installed on your iPhone to get the free update, but the game itself is just 0.99 and its totally worth getting. I started playing Angry Birds Lite a few weeks ago and it took me only a few minutes to go through the first demo levels. That only made me want the full app and Im glad I got it. After finishing all the levels in the full game I started replaying them to get three stars for every level and thus unlocked some special treats.Angry Birds is definitely one of the best iPhone games I played so far,000 and breaking that down by hour, and the team behind it will apparently keep updating it. The current update, version 1.4,www.sacprada.net/11-loisirs-sac-prada, comes with some brand new 15 levels, which are really easy to go through, at least for a one-star rating, and a brand new bird, that will basically help you knock-down almost any object in order to demolish those piglets, but I dont want to spoil it all for you.Whats also interesting is that Clickgamer will launch a bunch of updates in the near future as the new level shows there are 30 more levels coming soon. As always the real challenge will be solving them in order to get a three-star rating, but thats exactly what makes us play this game over and over even after weve finished it.Those of you that want to play Angry Birds on the iPad, thats possible too but Angry Birds HD will cost you a little extra at 4.99. And in case you want a couple of cheat apps to help you through the game, they are also available for 0.99 each but the game is just too good to ruin it with cheats.
Often when it comes to numbers, games, and productivity, the resulting stats end up much like a game themselves. This may be the case in this study done by Alexis Madrigal, a senior editor at the Atlantic on the Angry Bird Effect where he determines how much money is going down the tubes because workers insist on playing Angry Birds while on the clock.Can you believe the number he came up with was 1.5 billion? The question is what numbers this number is based on. Lets break it down a bit to see just how accurate this study is. First, Angry Birds is played 200 million minutes each day which adds up to 866,666,667 hours a year. Heres where the first assumption comes in. He assumes that 5 of that time is spent while on the work clock which makes 43,333,333 hours at work. The other assumption is that the average income for smartphone owners is 35 an hour (which could possibly be quite a bit lower). Do the multiplication and you come up with 1,Of course,nike shox canada,516,666,667.Infographic courtesy of The AtlanticEven though just one or two assumptions can throw statistics far off base,nike shox norge, studies like this are still fun to think about. Although the total loss in money due to loss of work-time productivity may not be perfectly accurate,www.burberrysac.net, its still true that productivity is still lost due to silly games like Angry Birds. Some even speculate that several quick breaks for games like that throughout the work day could actually increase concentration and productivity.
One thing is for certain, folks: Angry Birds is popular. And with that blinding flash of the obvious, its now time to get into the meat of the news here, as we discover that the Angry Birds franchise is sufficiently popular to have generated over half a billion downloads to date. But as it turns out, the crew out at Rovio isnt stopping theretheyve got some plans for the lineup, from new merchandising to print matter and beyond.Its worth noting that its not just Angry Birds fueling those numbers, but also Angry Birds Seasons and Angry Birds Rio that are thrown into that mix. But considering they all play roughly the same way featuring mostly the same characters (Angry Birds Rio is a bit of a departure in that pigs are really not involved), its safe to lump them in. And considering that we were just talking about Angry Birds clearing the 200 million download mark last May, its a pretty big advance for them indeed.And theyve got some big plans for the future, too, with merchandise shops going in in Helsinki and China, and fully ten million pieces of merchandise having already shipped. Theyve even got a line of print books going up around the troubled avians,videos and more.Still, and that Chinese merchandise store is projected to bring in fully 100 million for Rovio just in terms of merchandise sold at that one store.Now, where are they going to go from here? Well, with the merchandise pulling in nine figure sumsat least, projected toand three games to their credit so far, Rovio could go most anywhere they like. In fact, one would wonder if theyre going to do anything but Angry Birds,housing ensures clean sound, and while information on their future plans is somewhat short on the ground right now, they have to be looking at something to come when the birds lose their impact.So what do you guys think here? Is Rovio going to try to branch out from Angry Birds? Or will the birds dominate their plans for the foreseeable future? Either way, we want to hear from you,chaussures prada, so head on down to the comments section below and tell us what you think!
