SorceryGames Dev: Midway3 Minigames in Home Popularity List

BeansBeansBeans.JPG

 

In Playstation Home people are still busy earning their rewards and Avatar items by playing the Midway games. I received a list of the popularity of these games and so figured I would post them for those interested players :smileyhappy:

Now some of this order may surprise you (it does me). So after the list I will post a few thoughts on why the order is like it is.

  1. Beans, Beans
  2. Penny Pincher
  3. Dead Ringer
  4. Pull My Finger
  5. Big Foot
  6. Puck It
  7. Miz Fortune
  8. Scattershot
  9. Light Me Up
  10. Whack Off
 So whats surprises you? For me there are several, not least the most played game being 'Beans beans beans'. Also I would add that the least favourite game is 'Whack off', which I thougth was pretty fun, but is bottom. I was expecting something like Penny pincher to be top, as it has that Special Exclusive prize that people play for, and it was indeed close.
 
I think Beans beans beans is top as it is just so fast a game to play. I think the fastest out of all the game in the Midways to be honest. Therefore I think people can throw away a game very quickly and so just simply have another. Also with it being so fast, freeplay frenzys on that game will allow a larger number of players to participate than a slower game like 'Whack off'.
 
Any thoughts on why the games are popular in this order?

Re: SorceryGames Dev: Midway3 Minigames in Home Popularity List

It's clear that the easier ones are played less as the top rank can be achieved easily. Once people get that, they move on to the next game that they need to complete. If you look at them in terms of difficulty it's clear to see that's the case. Whack Off can be done in around 10-15 minutes, completing all 10 ranks in a short time, therefore less playing required.

Beans, Beans, Beans is a game of accurate timing but not easy to master, if you get a split second out you miss the target. Leaving you attempting it over and over until you get it right. Penny Pincher is a game of chance, even if you land the so called sweet spot you can still miss the target. So again requires more plays to get what you want out of it.

Is that 'Special Exclusive Prize' from Penny Pincher [the giant gold penny] even available in EU? I only ask as I have never seen anyone at all with it over here...

That's the one. Wonder if anyone could confirm that it is obtainable in EU though and not just NA?

I've seen it in EU. No idea if it was obtained legitimately though.
