I loved this on 1.1.4
Installer, how I miss you.

Man I wished I was a great app developer. Put out something great and then sit back and collect millions. Too bad I don't have the talent. I blamed that on my mom for not giving that to me.😛

I would really wish less start ups were bought

So folks could cut their teeth in the industry and get experience.

Being absorbed by a conglomerate like Disney will steer a lot of people away.

I would Tap Tap Miley Cyrus 😱

But please don't break her heart - her achy breaky heart.

Good for them. I remember downloading the original Tap Tap Revenge from the app store. I liked it a lot. But I must say, I do prefer Guitar Hero & Rock Band's style a lot more. Tap Tap Revenge seems focused on cheap gameplay and is full of ads of their other apps & paid music content.

YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL DUDE! She's only 17..

It's not a crime to want to "tap tap" a celebrity. If one physically tap taps a young celebrity, then it would be illegal (assuming they were in a province, state, country, etc., where 17 wasn't equal to or above the age of consent.

wonder how this will play out for twinkle. do people even still use that?

 

[AppEzzy]

Wow that's awesome, congrats to them!

Sick man, she is underage.

Seriously? she's the one who can't be tamed now... watch the music video, and come again and tell me she's underage 😎

I would Tap Tap Miley Cyrus 😱

*edit* as this seems to be causing some offence to some members I would like to clarify that I am within the UK, where she is over the legal age of consent.

LOLOL BEST DISCLAIMER MAN! But Miley is ugly?

 

[Lord Vader]

It's even legal in Illinois.

I will keep this in mind 😀

I jest. 😀 See, I put a smiley guy. Now you know.

Backpedal much? The world does not revolve around america and its laws. All you people accusing random people on the Internet of being pedophiles should be ashamed of yourselves. You don't know this guy and he certainly isn't bound by the same laws as you are.

Age of consent in Spain is 13. Vatican is 12. Does it make it right? If you lived in Spain, would you tap tap a 13 year old? Gross! They aren't even developed yet. [Insert puke smiley]

Sometimes the law isn't always right.

Then take it up with spain's government. Stop trying to push your own morals onto others.

Only people who use twinkle it seems are teenage boys and men pretending to be teenager girls. Any girls still on twinkle simply have yet to download a good twitter app.😉

This is definitely a good trend, as big companies are also realizing that mobile devices such as iPad, iPhone, android are the future. Most of the developers I talk to are moving away from desktop development, and moving to either iOS or android. Most are staying away from webOS and blackberry ( RIMM ). I think electronics arts and ubisoft got on the wave early and are seeing the profits. It makes sense that Disney is jumping into the game. Activision is being stupid and not jumping in. This is good for gamers also as we will see more A++ titles. I think in the next five years or so we'll see less and less new games/applications developed for desktop operating systems. That is the reason apple is ignoring desktop Mac OSX. If Microsoft doesn't smarten up and transition their business, they are dead in the water. HP also sees the future and bought palm and webos, however, I think HP should have concentrated on making Android devices instead. Dell has the correct plan, stick to making good cheap hardware with android. In the end, It'll be apple and android, and maybe Microsoft. Rimm will be gone, and HP will move over to android after they waste some time with webos.

Indian girls used to marry and have children once they had their period. 11/12 at the earliest probably. Just because America might say spain's laws are wrong it doesn't mean they are wrong.

And gross? Geez, just because I don't have double D bewbs I'm not attractive? I'm pretty sure I'm developed quite well thank you ><

In fact, I was 12, almost thirteen and I looked like most girls who are 14 look around here. So I don't see how it would be "gross" because even if thirteen year olds (some 12 and 11) aren't "fully developed" most (usually 12/13) are developed at least half way.

Sorry for the Indian history lesson thing but... I thought it was necessary.

Anyway, please please PLEASE no Hanna Montanna tap tap anything PLEASE!

Wait, I have only played one tap tap game. I don't remember what it was called but yeah, why am I so worried?
