Mob Wars

Mob Wars is yet another one of those games that Jeff and I have become addicted too (as well as most of our friends.) Damn these Javascript games. The idea behind this game is as follows:

  1. Commit crimes to earn cash and XP.
  2. Buy property to earn you cash.
  3. Kill fellow mobsters to earn cash and XP.

When you play as often as I do, there's a small time window before you starting pwning everyone. Casinos, the best property in the game, are very hard to save up for. I only have 68. My favorite aspect of this game is definitely the hit list. Now, the idea behind this is, if someone gets you angry, such as because they attacked you and took $100,000 of your hard-earned cash, then you can get payback. You just click their name, and then choose "add to hit list..." Then, for a small fee, (generally around $200,000,000 for me), they are added to the hit list for all to see. Anyone who clicks hit list can attack them and claim your bounty (a very hefty profit.) When the person on the hit list gets killed, they lose a lot of money, a lot of XP, and sometimes even levels. This angers people. I like to anger people. I have a lot of fun with this, as I am in no way short of money (I currently have about $3,000,000,000). So, just for fun, I thought I'd show you how I roll... These are snippets from my newsfeed:
