If you’re loving your iPod touch for the gaming, then you’ve probably downloaded all of these apps already?
First there was news Doodle Jump overtook Bejewelled as highest game downloaded on iTunes. Now Fruit Ninja has overtaken both of them.
Have a strong preference to any of them?
Haven’t heard of them and (gasp) don’t want to feel left out?
Check them all out below.
Doodle Jump
In Doodle Jump, you guide a four-legged alien known as the “Doodler” upwards through a series of platforms without falling or encountering monsters or black holes. The character is controlled by tilting the iPhone left and right.
Highly Addictive. One reviewer tweeted “if you value your life, never download Doodle Jump”.
Download Doodle Jump on iTunes:
Business Insider reported that based on calculations, the app was at that stage being downloaded approximately 28,000 times a day. That many people can’t be wrong?! But of course, we all move on unless it’s something that can keep us entertained.
Next came Fruit Ninja….

Bejewelled
Now, even without an iPod touch or iPhone, I think you know how popular Bejewelled is. You have seen all your Facebook friends newsfeeds with who reached the highest score and such. But it has been fully optimised for touch screen. Global leaderboard where you can update your Facebook page with stars and medals, four different game modes, hours of fun!
Dedicated fans queued all night – again – for release of yet another Apple product. This time not the iPhone, it was of course the much anticipated iPad.
Apple Sydney (city) store have massive queues around the block – all wanting to be the first with an Australian iPad. Some had queued from 2am the previous morning.. in what would have been very cold and wet conditions.
Rahul Koduri began camping out more than 24 hours beforehand, was the first in line for the iPad release. “I could have pre-ordered but there’s a different feel to it when you line up outside an Apple store,” he told the Sydney Morning Herald.
Bondi Superstore
Completion of construction on the newly announced Apple super store at Bondi was under cloud yesterday. Would it even be finished in time? Of course… the official opening was 8am today, on the day of the iPad launch. Not a surprise that Apple chose to capatilise on the iPad hysteria.
The lines there were a similar scene to the city store, with staff at the new store whipping everyone into an Apple frenzy. It was perhaps disappointing, but not surprising, to hear that some journo’s jumped the line to be served first, who’d not been waiting long. We all know they can be a low form of life. At least there was no fisty-cuffs put up by those actually first in line. Although that would have raised more excitement in the non-Apple world…
With the iPad starting at $629 (eventhough it’s only US$499) – are you getting one?
It’s good to see that it has triggered better data plans from the telcos. Hopefully a price war may ensue?
