Angry Birds, a highly addictive iPhone and Android game, is going to be released for the Xbox, the Wii, and the PS3.
Angry Birds is a puzzle game with an odd story behind it. The point is to put the birds in a slingshot and fire them at the enemy – in this case, egg-stealing pigs. It has a fun design, multiple levels, and a lot of personality.
At $1.99 per download, the game has done amazingly well on the iPhone and the Android. However, recreating it for the larger consoles will doubtlessly raise the price (Xbox games average about $45). On a larger console, there is potential for more levels and improved graphics, but will consumers really welcome such a pricey rendition of an old favorite? Would you?
That means that anyone with an older iPod Touch or iPhone 3G are out of luck and have to pay for the service. The only way to get this feature for free on the new current gen models is by having to upgrade to the new iOS 4.2 then go to Settings on your iPhone/iPod/iPad, select “”Mail, Contacts, Calendars”" and choose to Add an Account and enter your existing Apple ID info, which should be the same as your itunes log in info.
Steve Jobs had reported to expect a new Mac App store in 90 days 2 months ago. Now, Apple has been hassling developers to submit their apps, however, it is still unclear what benefits developers will receive for their apps.
Of course, anyone can develop their own app and send it to get it approved by Apple and make money off it. Whoever likes making apps or is interested in making one, do it, because Apple needs them!
As recently as this past summer, the iPhone 4 was the most desired smartphone on the market. In a survey conducted in June 2010, exactly 50% of the participants said that they wanted to buy the iPhone 4 once it was released. The Google Android took second place at 30%.
However, when a similar survey was conducted again in September, consumer preferences appeared to shift. Support for the Android had jumped to 37%, while the iPhone had plummeted to 38%. And it’s easy to see why!
Unlike the iPhone, the Android is highly customizable.
There are also fewer restrictions in the Android App Store, which means that third-party programmers will have more options for creating apps.
And Finally, the Android is not tied down to AT&T. Consumers displeased with At&t are making the switch to the Android.
All in all, the battle between the iPhone and the Android is coming down to which phone has more options. Which do you prefer?
