Just because Wired is reblogging Threes' own piece on 2048[1] doesn't make it any more legit.

I remember reading this when 2048 came out and it came out as a huge whine from the developers. It completely turned me off of Threes.

Someone succeeded using a similar idea, and in many people's opinions, they did it better and it was free. The next step shouldn't be to write a smug blog post about how the other product is crap and people should be paying you instead.

Did you read the threemail post? It wasn't how you describe.

I thought this looked less like an article and more like a paid shill piece. Seems that impression was correct.

Do they ever admit to an influence from Zepto's Pudding Monsters and/or Triple Town? Seems a bit hypocritical if they don't.
