Mob Wars - Facebook Game Tips

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 01:00:00 +0000

I love playing Mob Wars on Facebook because it’s one of those pointless games that you just can’t help but play every day at work :)

So here are my Facebook Mob Wars tips trick and cheats

First you should try to gain experience. Basically when you start playing Mob Wars on Facebook try to do jobs only in order to gain experience and make money.

Invite all of your friends to join your mob. Make sure you invite the maxium amount of people per day because the more people you invite the more money you will get.

Just do the jobs and let your energy regenerate and keep doing jobs. Once you have some money...say 60,000, you should try and buy a city. Go to city and buy an empty lot and a restaurant. If you do that you will get money by the hour.

The more cities you buy, the more money you make per hour. So keep doing jobs, and buying cities.

When you reach level 10 the I would suggest you start to fight. Go into you stockpile and look at the weapons and cars.

To get some good weapons you will need around 150.000.

Buy an Armed Range Rover for 90,000. Buy an assault rifle and some body armor. You can start to fight people and by fighting them you will gain experience and sometimes money. So mainly, do jobs, build cities, fight, and INVITE.

Always attack people who have hotels and casinos because when you attack them and win you could potentially win around $70.000 per fight

That’s it, now go to Facebook and start playing Mob Wars

Mob Wars - An epic game of Mafia warfare, played on Facebook.

A million Nintendo Wiis sold in the UK

Thu, 30 Aug 2007 00:00:00 +0000

The Nintendo Wii has become the fastest selling video games console in UK's history after one million of the consoles were sold 38 weeks after the Wii was launched.

The Nintendo Wii achieved the one million landmark in a shorter time than the Sony PlayStation 2, which, after a difficult launch in 2000, went on to become the world's most successful console so far, selling more than 115 million units worldwide.

The Wii, designed to attract casual gamers, is outselling PlayStation 3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360 by at least two-to-one.

Last month Nintendo announced that its first-quarter net profits soared more than five-fold, further vindicating the Japanese group's declared policy of making video games for "people who don't like video games".

The new data from Chart Track points out that the PS2 took 50 weeks while the Xbox 360 took 60 weeks to top the magical figure. The diminutive Wii now controls a whopping 68% of the UK console market, while Nintendo’s other little earner, the DS dominates the handheld market with an 86% share.

Nintendo put the console's runaway success down to the fact that it has been selling regardless of seasonality, and due to the new, nontraditional gaming audiences that the Wii attracts.

Bourne Conspiracy to be launched for PS3 and xBox360

Thu, 28 Jun 2007 00:00:00 +0000

Vivendi Games / Sierra has revealed Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Conspiracy for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, a stealth-action game due to be launched at E3 next month.

The upcoming Bourne Conspiracy game will give players the experience of becoming a 30 million dollar elite agent, fusing an experience that delves deep into Jason Bourne's character with gameplay and game presentation inspired by the aggressive filmmaking and frenetic action found in the films", they say, adding the mandatory clichéd intrigue:

Only by playing Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Conspiracy will players discover Bourne's true identity and experience the very moment he became a malfunctioning weapon, first hunting targets around the world as a deadly government assassin then marking himself as his agency's most wanted.

From the looks of the first screenshots, you can expect the Bourne Conspiracy game to step in Sam Fisher's footsteps, clearly resembling Ubisofts's Splinter Cell franchise.

As a third-person espionage action game, players move from fistfights to firefights to experience sequences that, unlike any other game, seamlessly blend Bourne's signature hand-to-hand combat with intense shooting and the ability to escape and evade deadly situations.

The Bourne Conspiracy is currently developed by High Moon Studios.

Over 155 Million Pokemon Games Sold Worldwide

Tue, 01 May 2007 00:00:00 +0000

After reporting the massive success with Wii- which sold more than 5.84 million units in less than 6 months- Nintendo announced that more than 1 million copies of Pokemon for DS have been sold in the US in less than a week.

So the fact that Nintendo reports a new success with its Pokemon franchise doesn’t surprise anyone. It’s quite a usual thing lately for the Kyoto-based giant to produce revolutionary products (e.g. Nintendo Wii’s code-name was Revolution) that immediately attract customers of all ages.

Pokemon is no exception. In the US, more than 1 million copies of Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl for the Nintendo DS were sold in less than 5 days of availability. Consumers rushed to snap-up their own copy of the game at an amazing rate (almost 200,000 copies per day!), setting a record for any Pokemon game sold until now in North America.

The recent success boosts Pokemon’s worldwide popularity to outstanding levels, more than 155 million copies having been sold to date.

But that doesn’t stop here: Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl are also on track of becoming US’ top selling games in 2007. More than one half million people pre-ordered the games before launch. Additionally, thousands of people attended the kickoff launch event in New York, and demand for the games continues to be off the charts.

The million in the US is a completion of the more than 5 million Pokemon games already sold in Japan since September 28, 2006.
