PopCap sales up 85%, drug cartel revenues down
39
If you're looking for proof that PopCap's stash is still the most potent you can find, look no further. While PC sales took a 14% hit in 2008, PopCap Games has announced its year-over-year revenue has jumped 85%. Citing data from NPD Group, which does not take online sales into account, PopCap stated the biggest needle in the vein came in the form of Bejeweled Twist -- a franchise that has already hit the $300 million mark. According to our dealer PopCap, this boost in sales puts the developer within the top 20 video game retail publishers by dollar value, a first in the company's history. We'd continue writing this post, but we need to sell our computers to get more-of-that Pop.

It's funny because Peggle is like crack in the sense that both are addictive.
Now, if you all will excuse, I must go and state the obvious else where.

Mr. Show (David Cross and Bob Odenkirk) did and act about a black white supremacist before Chapelle did.

Gear Second fucking rocks yo. I was actually considering changing my PSN account name to LuffyGearSecond but then I'd have to re-add all my friends and that's too damn much work for me...
