iPhone games (also Ipod Tooch/iPad games too)

ok flappy bird is pretty perverse but once you get past the first bunch of pipes and it turns into a straight RPG its kind of amazing

wait, its an rpg?

yeah, i'm curious to hear more about that. my friend at work was showing it to me today, and...after watching him go through 15 pipes and die 3 times in a row, i thought that's all there was

i couldn't get through ONE pipe, promptly erased and moved on.

yeah im not usually into rpgs but this is p cool

protip: turn up the sound for the water level

But it’s worrisome that we live in a world that would rocket an almost entirely mindless game like this to insane levels of popularity. Forget video games, what does that say about society as a whole? Have we reached a level of boredom bordering on dangerous if we’re spending our time en masse on something so pointless?

I Love Flappy Bird

the only part of Flappy Bird i enjoy is the spyhunter-esque sequence after you clear the first 40 pipes

Wow, flappy bird is not for me. rage inducing. I can't get past 3.

FB is an exercise in restraint. u have to get to a state of no-flap.

Woo I medaled in flappy

the flapless flap

The mobile game "Flappy Bird" generates $50,000 per day in ad revenue for its Vietnamese developer, Dong Nguyen. Nguyen told The Verge Feb. 5 that the game will not likely receive any more updates because "anything added to the game will ruin it somehow."

nguyen is a weird dude.

You're wrong - Tao Lin is the Dong Nguyen of hipster literature

Warhammer Quest down to $0.99 - will grab based on the rec here

definitely, especially if you like xcom type stuff

tao lin comparison making me never want to touch this game

game much better than tao lin

You will do better on this game on drugs though

i got a gold medal and haven't really picked it up since, but there's a satisfying difficulty level and when you're in the zone it's entrancing

anyone try Threes? that's getting some hype right now

Number 1 on the App Store currently.

I haven't tried it, just looks like one of those games that would infuriate me.

OK, I take everything back. Threes is insanely addictive. I like how it gets where you think you're screwed, you make a couple of good moves and then you're DOMINATING.

ok this makes it actually suuuuuper easy

oh yeah and threes is fantastic.

haha wow can't believe i've been doing it wrong this whole time. thx for the tip slocks :)

@dongatory: I can call 'Flappy Bird' is a success of mine. But it also ruins my simple life. So now I hate it.

love this guy

video v helpful ty i redownloaded it and it is fun now

woo just beat my high score

my new high score is 46. it feels good to be alive.

wow, you guys are terrible. my high score is 3,357

i'm assuming we're talking about our high scores on Threes

I only played threes once so probably not.

Dong Nguyen ‏@dongatory 16m
I am sorry 'Flappy Bird' users, 22 hours from now, I will take 'Flappy Bird' down. I cannot take this anymore.

!

ugh so is this game actually good?

If you want to play a game where you fly through as many pipes as possible, yes. If you want anything else to happen, no.

I tried three times to get past one pipe then deleted it

I got threw one

3

that poor bird

my Threes high score is 7,689. High number of 384.
