iWhack: The Whack-a-Steve Ballmer iPhone Game

There is nothing quite like summer carnivals and town fairs and all the carnival games that go with it. My personal fave? Whack-a-mole. You know the game: plastic mole pops up randomly out of holes and you..well..whack the heck out of its head.

So now imagine taking that carnival joy and shrinking it down to an iPhone screen-sized scale. Now imagine having some added incentive to whacking that mole. With iWhack that mole is none other than Steve Ballmer himself.

The game, released by myNuMo, can be played here. Start whacking! And if you need some added incentive, remember what Steve Ballmer said back in April,

Theress no chance that the iPhone is going to get any significant market share. No chance. It’s a $500 subsidized item. They may make a lot of money. But if you actually take a look at the 1.3 billion phones that get sold, I’d prefer to have our software in 60 percent or 70 percent or 80 percent of them, than I would to have 2 percent or 3 percent, which is what Apple might get.

Enjoy.
