Flappy Bird

I don't understand why it was taken down. "Oh I'm making thousands of dollars over a game everyone hates but keeps coming back too. Better take it down".

This guy is an idiot.

I don't think he's an idiot... I respect the guy actually. He said he couldn't take the fame anymore and he never cared for fame and money in the first place.
Also Nintendo apparently were threatening to sew (how do you spell it?) him because of the pipes looking like mario design which I think is stupid. It's a pipe! A PIPE! -.-'
 
Oh, he was also said to be getting death threats which is pretty sickening. It's a freaking game and people are sending death threats over?

Anyway, my high score is 61 and I noticed it was taken off of the app store.

It's spelled sue. :)
 
My friends at school played it. I never played it, because I'll know i'll loose my temper if not xD My best friend played on it for the whole of lunchtime, still her high score is 2.
 
I'm glad it's gone. It's all everyone talks about.. "Meh floppy burd huhscore is six" is all I heard a few days ago at Starbucks... I don't hate because of the rage, I hate because of the uproar.. People think it's funny how you can say "Oh my gosh, like it's sooo mean and won't let me go to a higher score than 5533410427..." It's so stupid. And I don't know how it seemed to pass me like a giant scream over a field mouse... I haven't even played dis FLOPPY BURD. I don't have a high score or anything!! I don't even know how to play it. I didn't know it was on the app store! I didn't know it even existed! I gotta get back in the modern news.. Imma go watch some Vocaloid.
 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG_F7GK8xRY The other half of this video explains the situation with why Flappy bird got taken down, personally I respect the guy for what he did. That game is worthless, and there are other better games like that, such as Techno kitten adventure that is alot better than Flappy Bird but never got popular.

Just because they say they didn't doesn't mean they're telling the truth... Don't get me wrong, I think Nintendo is great but the pipes did look A LOT like the mario versions and the app was making a fortune. It would've been the perfect chance for them to get money. To be honest they probably didn't have a problem but I'm just saying that anyone could tell a lie on the spot.

Anyway I'm not saying they did or they didn't - all I know is that it's off the app store and people are actually bidding on the iphones with flappy bird on on ebay (whether half of them actually pay or not is another question).
