I think some Filipinos are pauso, while others are nakikiuso; one thing is for sure, we are technology fanatics. We, at times, get to ride with what's new and fresh in the app marketplace. I must admit that I have used and/or played some of these apps.

Of course including the list of popular applications and/or games in the Philippines are Monopoly, Scrabble, NBA Jam, Slice, and Tower Madness. As for the widely used applications in the Philippines, the top five (for me) are as follows.
1. Instagram - one of the best applications made, Facebook-acquired Instagram is a fun, quirky way to share moments of your life by editing photos that you take according to the degree of aesthetics that you want. Its presence somehow eliminates or reduces the distinction between shots taken using a DSLR and shots produced with the aid of Instagram. With this, anyone can create nice memorable photos of experiences in life.

2. Tetris Battle - with over 11.4 million monthly Facebook users, no one who has a Facebook account cannot deny that this game is one of the most popular game ever. This is actually a social interactive online version of the black 'n white Tetris that we used to play in the simpler brick game, sold in the streets several years ago.
3. Fruit Ninja - its extremely unique and simple swipe-to-cut game mechanism makes it easy for anyone in a group of friends at a house party to jump in, substitute the loser and play again.

4. Angry Birds - a strategy game mixed with rounded bird and pig characters, Angry Birds is a must-play game that enhances your shooting range-guessing skill. The noise that is released every time towers of piggies fall down really remind you of the evil act that you did, lol.
5. Plants vs Zombies - who would forget this extra addictive game of sunflowers, pumpkins, suns, shooters, cherry bombs, and walking and athletic zombies? Plants vs Zombies is indisputably one of the extremely unforgettable games ever to come to the Philippines. It's been all over different media from laptops to smartphones, and from pillows to other merchandise.
