Pokemon Go! Are you playing it?

[Stewart_Reptiles]

Someone is going to get killed playing that game if they haven't already. It appears to be very addictive. I honestly don't get it. I catch real animals. I already had to ban that game in my house and my car.

Close enough and I am sure it will happen.

Because I only have .25 GB of data a month, I've been limiting my Pokemon catching to Wal-Mart, since they have free wifi. Spent 2-3 hours total there catching Pokemon and caught probably over 100 before transferring them to gain candies. I've only evolved 3 Pokemon so far because there isn't a lot of repeats. I did, however, decide to say screw it to my data today and spent a good 30-40 minutes walking back and forth getting pokeballs from all the pokestops on my local Main Street (there's like 10 of them there, it's great). Went from 0 to 100 pokeballs and used just a couple since. The worst part about the game right now is how often the servers are down, but if you go out at night the servers are almost always up. Unfortunately, I can't do a lot of walking around looking for Pokemon because I have such an insignificant amount of data. I'm hoping to get an unlimited data plan when my phone is paid off in August. I'm not brave enough to try battling the gyms, I'm not a competitive person in the least.

I know a lot of people get stuck in the game, so I really hope they make the game so that it vibrates even when you've got the phone locked. If you leave the app at all, it doesn't track your walking (doesn't use a pedometer, uses a GPS signal) and won't vibrate if you happen upon the Pokemon. So you have to leave the phone unlocked and the app open, which absolutely sucks the data and battery. So yeah, hopefully they improve on that. I know it'd be way easier to take your eyes off the phone if that wasn't the case, too.

I've been playing Pokemon since I was nine so my excitement for the game was through the roof. To be quite honest, i've been walking and playing the game since it came out on gameboy all those years ago. My nose always to the screen. Lol I guess I have developed a 'sixth sense' for avoiding traffic. That or I just frequent places that rarely gets any. The walking aspect was pretty nice. It led me to places I haven't really discovered about in my own city. Which I've lived in for YEARS!

I am currently a level 7. Beat a gym over the weekend for team Mystic only to come back on Monday to have it taken over again. *sigh* So just catching the little buggers for now.

I am looking forward to the pokemon go plus which would be a wearable for the app but I am a little skeptical about it.

If I can get past the servers crashing, battery soul sucking, restarting my phone to play, and the competitive bone crushing aspects of the game Pokemongo has brought me back to a time in my childhood I enjoyed. I still play the old games, it's just that after I beat them...I don't want to start over again. Lol

I'm still using my old flip phone. Yup, I'm that fella.

darn you people, I'm trying to resist the temptation but this doesn't help. Makes it sound fun. I know my daughter tried it but it wouldn't run right on her tablet. I have too many time sinks already. No no no no no, hmmm, might not hurt to just download it for a bit..............

I have the game on my phone bit since it doesn't have a gyroscope i cant really enjoy what the game has to offer, but from what ive seen with my friends it lookslike a great idea.... Now that being said the affect its having on people with a basic lack of common sense is hilarios and scary at the same time, ive already had a kid walk out into traffic infront of me and stop in the toad trying to catch one. And yesterday while out fishing i saw a few grouos of people walking around looking for them and they just looked like little zombie hords.

Ditto. Mine is the Samsung indestructible/military model, and it's only $40/month so I'm keeping it. I only use it for emergency calls anyway. I got it in 2004 and it still works.

Definitely a game making the news and not in the best way http://www.wsbtv.com/news/trending-n...tims/396504387

I've played this game a bit but the fact that all I've found are weedle, pidgey, spearow, one psyduck and one paras is a little discouraging.
