 Pokemon Go
So who's playing? What's your opinion of the game? And what about the controversy surrounding it (robbery, dead bodies, personal info being accessed, etc.) so far?

 Re: Pokemon Go
Just downloaded it, but the server is down. Can't wait to start playing sounds like a blast.

 Re: Pokemon Go
I was in an IHOP today and some little kid was locating some Pokemon character on his phone just as they were leaving the restaurant.

 Re: Pokemon Go
It's a fun game and does bring AR to a new level that's super accessible to the mass, but I definitely see the danger too. Having teenagers gathering outside our house to search for Pokemon was not a welcome sign.
The # of daily-active users is already approaching 140m, and it's only available in a few countries. Insane growth since its release. Huge win for Nintendo.

 Re: Pokemon Go
I have 19 Pokemon lol. Haven't really been able to get lost in it like everyone else it seems. It's nuts, when I went to the mall the other day TONS of people were in groups playing this. Even my friends have gone out of their way to go all over the city to catch stuff... It'll definitely get less popular but if they keep adding updates who knows what'll happen.

It's not officially available in Croatia, but 8 out of 10 people I know play the game. And I already hate people playing it. My WhatsApp groups are full of people talking about where they caught which Pokemon. Ugh!

 Re: Pokemon Go
Kids are playing outside and it encourages real-life exploring of your local neighborhood.

 Re: Pokemon Go
I'm at Level 10, but I still don't have a pokemon over CP700. Which is lame.

 Re: Pokemon Go
It is a very, very fun game. My biggest Pokémon is a Gyarados around 1,800 C.P.

 Re: Pokemon Go
Due to my busy-ness at work, I still have yet to have a Pokemon reach 1,000 CP.
