Angry Farm is FIVE DOLLARS with THIRTY LEVELS?
Angry Birds is FREE with ONE HUNDRED LEVELS.

Why is everything on BB so expensive and with short-comings?

Big problem here is the blackberry platform…fragmented. Quality gameplay would require an OpenGL chip, which is found in only a fifth of blackberry sold. Also, a more standardized input would go a long way to make the game less buggy. Add to that the 2-3y old CPU found in the Torch and other similar blackberry, you have a recipe for a catastrophe.

Gaming on a BB? Right now, its nothing more than a joke. Maybe the playbook will come to the rescue, with a homogenous platform with similar input methods on phones with a similar screen resolution and 3D hardware…

Rim, the ball is on your side of the court.

Just like how minecraft is a blatent ripoff of infiniminer but everyone sees any kind of block building/rpg game as a ripoff of minecraft instead.

Good point. There’s so many games out there that could be considered ripoffs of another. Rovio proved that marketing your game effectively goes a long way to making it a success over a unique game concept.

Rovio’s game is just a rip-off of other games anyway. If they were to take legal action against anyone, they’d end up having some brought against them. It just so happens that Rovio put a good swing on their game and it became the more popular of all the other similar games. As such, the general mind set is that every game is now a rip-off of Angry birds when in reality Angry birds is a rip off as well.

Having played Angry Farm I’ve pretty much concluded that Rovio is just being lazy. They could port Angry Birds to the BB platform if they wished to do so. Angry Farm shows that clearly, it does work an while it may not be totally on par with that of other platforms. It’s pretty darn close.
