I found several things interesting about this story.

First, 25 million downloads is a huge number, but given the incredible popularity of Plants vs. Zombies, and the fact that the franchise was purchased by Electronic Arts, that number is not that surprising. What is surprising to me is the fact that that number reflects pure iOS downloads. The game has not yet been released on Android. The original Plants vs Zombies was released on iOS in February 2010, and on Android more than a year later, in May 2011.

I also found the tone of this article amusing.

Without the help of Android, the number one mobile OS in the world with millions of devices activated daily, the extremely popular Plants vs Zombies 2 is still doing great. While we all know these numbers would be substantially higher with a simultaneous release, the developers from PopCap games are already celebrating nearly 25 million downloads.

This is an Android blog, fair enough. But is an article pointing out that one of the biggest mobile games of all time is not yet released on your platform the appropriate place to hammer home the phrase “the number one mobile OS in the world”?
