10 Mind Blowing Statistics about Facebook Games
I must say that i am a die-hard Facebook gamer. I play Sims Social, and the Hunger Games adventure daily on Facebook and i complete goals and earn money and points. And yes, i HAVE spent $1 to get ahead in my Sims Social gaming. On the site with the mind blowing statistics, the most interesting statistic to me was "56 MILLION PLAY DAILY!" That's a lot of people and another reason to be addicted to Facebook. And what's even funnier is that 69% of Facebook gamers are women. Who knew? To be completely honest, Facebook games are a waste of time and i have found myself playing Facebook games for hours when i could be doing something a LOT more productive. Plus, once your addicted, you will do anything to finish your goals on time. Even pay money to get ahead and get nicer things for your "Sim" or "pet" or whatever. These Facebook games are exactly like playing video-games. Just on a computer and a different augmented reality. You can eat, sleep, have fun, and do all the things you can do in the real world but you get to create your own farm, house, or even social life. Facebook games also scam you. In a website, it mentions that "In exchange for participating in the advertising offers, at the end the users receive virtual goods in the form of virtual currency or items....The problems is that some of these offers are of questionable integrity or downright scams." So you can easily get scammed or get harmful things on your computer just because you were trying to earn more cash for your game. How many of you play Facebook games?
I have played scrabble, farmville and uno but i have never been so addicted to these facebook games. What really surprises me on how people spend their hard earn money on these games to get more points or whatever they may need. I know a couple of people who Farmville is their addiction. They wake up in the middle of the nite or ask their children to take care of their farm during the day. To me, it seems insane to me to be that worried over a virtual farm or any virtual world.
ReplyDeleteHahaha wow that's insane for the farmville thing! And ya i'm definitely not THAT worried about my sims or my hunger games character lol. Ya it really is insane!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I never really got into any of the games on there, but I worry about people who are so addicted that they are actually spending money, like real life green. I cannot fathom doing that. Becoming so addicted to something like that, that it starts to become my actual reality. Like the video we watched that had the woman who had an actual job through an augmented reality. I just don't get it!!
