gaming Flappy Bird is SO Overrated

Recommended Posts

Flappy Bird was never "fun" or "addicting" in the first place. People are just dumb enough to fall into it's curse.

 

:okiedokielokie: ...okay, okay, I see what's going on here...You're one of those people that think that just because you have an opinion on something, it somehow makes it the superior opinion and everyone who disagrees is a moron.

Thanks for the insult buddy!

 

Besides, it rips off Super Mario sprites (the fish and pipes). >_>

 

The only fact in this post!

 

Seriously, what is a stupid high score on this...game gonna earn you in life? :eww:

 

To be fair what is a high score on...Pacman or Asteroids or Donkey Kong going to get you in life?

 

What is getting the top spot on the leaderboard in CoD, Battlefield or TF2 going to get you in life?

 

What is beating Super Mario World, Grand Theft Auto V or Devil May Cry going to get you in life?

 

NOTHING! It's just for fun!

 

To put it simply: FLAPPY BIRD IS OVERRATED GARBAGE :angry:

 

In other words "STOP LIKING THINGS THAT I DON'T LIKE!!!"

 

And stop making posts that turn me into a complete asshole and a douchebag!!!

I could probably name off about five used-to-be or currently overrated smartphone games. Flappy Bird is going to be like Angry Birds; people will play it now, but eventually, it'll be forgotten.

I thought it had peaked around the time it's creator flipped out and pulled the original game. Didn't know it was still going strong.

Pffft.

 

You're just jealous that your high score isn't 175. B^)

It's overrated sure, but it is a very simple game. That's what made it popular; difficulty and simplicity.

Woah woah woah...maybe I didn't word this right. I shouldn't have said most of this stuff. I'm okay with people liking Flappy Bird. It's really an ok game. Sorry if I came off as a total a**hole. I'm a terrible person. I know. I shouldn't have let my opinions get the better of me. -_-

For me, it was a wise decision to not install and play Flappy Bird and the reason is this. Instead of it being fun for players, it makes them rage with frustration and anger. Some players even destroyed their phones after playing the game. I'm not kidding.

 

I think it's not worth playing Flappy Bird. Especially when the creator faced a lawsuit with Nintendo and took the app off the store because of his reasons.

Thank you for being so considerate! I was worried I was too harsh on my first post. I'm probably gonna stay away from the forums for a while to better myself. I'm gonna try to learn how to control my opinions. Farewell ;)

Did you hear about the story where somepony killed his brother because the brother teased him for beating his high score? Truly saddenig. -_-

Like my best friend said,"How come flappy bird got popular instead of another game like it" And I would have to agree with her why do some games get popular but others don't? Sometimes the world confuses me sometimes..

It's such a simple game, but all its elements work well, its design, its sound, its gameplay, its difficulty, etc, it is not original, it just takes elements of other games and make them work, is a good game (for the standards of that kind of games), and that's the reason it can be addictive for some people, so i don't think it's overrated, making a simple game like that work is not easy, and nobody is saying that Flappy Bird is better than a console game.

Can't really see these games as"overrated" but more so uncreative. Keep in mind these aren't blockbuster console games, they're just silly portable time wasters

Well, it's a game that's simple enough for just about anyone to play, and it helps being on devices like phones & tablets.

 

I wouldn't say it's overrated; though. It has a reason for being popular, and I can see why it is.

People say it's popular because it's addicting.

I don't see how it's addicting in any way though.

It's just tapping a jumping bird through pipes.

It is WAY too simple to be actually entertaining.

Personally, I think it's boring as fuck.

Different strokes for different folks. Some people enjoy a challenge like that, while others will deal with the rage they feel by never accepting defeat, haha.

 

For me, it'd be too aggravating. If I want a simple, yet addictive game, I'll do Angry Birds or Soccer Physics.

Good for people who are into those games, but those bore me. I'm not gonna stop playing a Smash, Odin Sphere, Metal Gear, Castlevania, Zelda, Metroid, Ninja GAYden just to play Flapping Bird or Tetris

There's a game theory videos describing how gaming media is all Dependant on Pewdipie, and compares him to other things. It showed a graph of the downloads a day for flappy bird. The graph was flat, then a spike on the 14 january. Pewdipies video came out that day.

Pewdipie is literally the only reason flappy bird became a thing.

Pewdipie...

Yes, it is.

It's also the worst of all time, just like pretty much nearly every other smartphone game.

Even worse than Cheetahmen II, Shaq Fu, Big Rigs, Crazy Bus, Daikatana, and ET 2600.

Excuse me while I play a real game like Metal Slug 3.

Just because you play Flappy Bird doesn't mean you can't play Flappy Bird, that game can be entertaining when you can't use your console because you're not in your house, for example
