Plants Vs Zombies is best-selling PopCap game ever

plantsvszombies1

The amazing Plants Vs Zombies is likely to be PopCap’s highest performer yet, the firm’s told Gamasutra.

PR man Garth Chouteau told the site the game is selling “incredibly well” and, “At this very early point in its history, it’s the best-selling game PopCap’s ever had.”

You’d have to go some to beat Peggle. The PopCap team is probably engaged in some kind of disgusting money orgy as we type.

If you haven’t played it yet, do so: it’s completely awesome.

This game is insanely addictive – try the 60 min demo, you’ll be buying it at the 61 minutes point so you can unlock and keep playing.

Other game studios take note: If you give away an hour of the full version of your game for free pirates can’t use the excuse “I was just testing it” if they have an illegal copy.

I still haven’t tried this. I have downloaded the demo though.

If you like any sort of tower defence game then you need to play this.

It’s ok. It’s a very well produced game. But the main campaign felt pretty short and the night missions weren’t too good.

Some of the minigames and puzzles are great though. Especially the names they give them. There’s even a nod to Portal in one of them.

Currently stuck on Zombie Nimble Zombie Quick. Same game, played at about 5 times normal speed.
