Are you one of the only people in the United States that hasn’t played Bejeweled 2? If so, you no longer have an excuse not too. The Amazon Appstore for Android has made Bejeweled 2 free as part of its ongoing Free App of the Day promotion.

Prepare to head to iTunes, as another video game company is going to hold a sale to benefit the 2011 Japan earthquake relief effort. PopCap’s joining the ranks of companies like Capcom, Sega and 5pb by discounting every iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch game it has ever released. All of the money goes to help people in need.

PopCap casual games are typically well made, but they’re also quite expensive. Thanks to distributors like Big Fish Games, people have come to expect $6.99 casual Windows and Mac games, not $20 ones. Well, PopCap’s 10 Years of Fun Sale should help people decide to buy directly from the developer…

Mac owners in desperate need of some casual entertainment are going to love PopCap’s Complete Mac Pack. PopCap games are typically available on multiple platforms, and the Mac is one of them. To help show love for said Mac owners and hopefully make some money, PopCap has decided to bundle together 13 of its best and most popular Mac games in one $49.95 bundle. You have to act fast though, as this sale is limited and won’t last forever.

Let’s check out the games you get in the Complete Mac Pack bundle…

Included in this bundle are Bejeweled 2, Bejeweled Twist and Bejeweled Twist. These games sell for $19.99 a piece on PopCap’s site, but you can get all three for $39.95. In the end you stand to save about $20 on all these games. All of the downloads are for PC only and are in English.

On March 23, 2009, Mike Leyde did what many thought was impossible – he mastered Bejeweled 2. After playing for over 2,200 hours and three years, he managed to get the highest possible score in the game – 2,147,482,575. Theoretically, he could have gotten an even higher score, but when he made the next match the game couldn’t handle it and his score turned into a negative number.

So far, the gaming media has been a little slow taking the iPhone as a gaming platform seriously and with good reason too. Yes, the iPhone does have the potential to create some amazing looking and innovative games, but the problem is that very few developers are taking the time to put out anything of quality past various puzzle and word game clones. For proof, you can check out our weekly App Store gaming update (which you should be doing anyway!).

So it should come as no surprise that when Apple announced the top downloaded games for 2008, there are some familiar names on the board. Some of these games have been featured on a top ten list for at least three weeks if not more. Keep in mind that this is a top ten list out of thousands of games. Regardless, here are the top ten lists for both paid and free games…

With the release of Apple’s new App Store, a decent number of titles have been released to cater to our screen touching needs.
