Mac App store Review

As you all may be familiar with your app store on your phones and iPods apple has just brought this to the computer. Imagine simply downloading a simple app, no installation, it just works.

Apple recently released there mac app store. Its pretty much apps.... for your mac!

 
The mac app store simply adds another icon to your toolbar.
Simply click it and BAM
Instantly we are greeted with apples friendly app store. And yes that is Call Of Duty.... on the app store.

There is a pretty fair amount of free apps but.... the pricing makes me sick to my stomach.

There are a few apps that are so overpriced its sad. Theres this one, called yummy soup. Its basically a soup recipe organization program. Thats awesome. Just think of chefs or parents in the kitchen simply looking up recipes through a simple app on their laptop or desktops.

Its 15 dollars. Yes. 15. I mean come on its useful but... at the same time its still 15 BUCKS. Id rather write down my recipes on a piece of paper, or just google them.

There are alot of other overpriced apps but it would be rude to start naming them all.

Games? You got it! The games are fairly priced. Heres a quick screenshot of the games page so you can get a quick overview of the prices. There priced VERY well. They also run extremely well and download and install in just minutes. My favorite so far has got to be civilization 4. Its really alot of fun and worth the price. Another good one is this free solitare pack they have it comes with like 5 different types of solitare and i made extremely well. The graphics are superb on these games. The app store is no joke when it comes to games and I would love to see some AAA titles like The sims 3 and world of warcraft on the app store. Now that would be cool. I mean we already have modern warfare on there. Yeah its not black ops but still its a step in the right direction! I really like the games they are offering and the prices they are at.

The mac app store is for sure a step in the right direction. Its pretty cool If you have a mac check it out for sure. Even leave a comment and lemme know what you think.
