Draw Something gets knocked off the Top Grossing list by Angry Birds Space

Rovio, the producers of Angry Birds Space will be excited to know that the latest instalment of their popular game franchise has dislodged Draw Something by OmgPop (bought over by Zynga recently) from the number 1 spot at the Top Grossing list on Apple’s iOS Store. Early reports put it at 10 million downloads in the first 3 days of the app’s culmination.

As of now, Angry Birds Space has succeeded in overtaking the OmgPop/Zynga application from both the ‘Top Free’ and ‘Top Grossing’ list, replacing ‘Draw Something’ in both cases after the latter held the top spot for some time. This might explain why Rovio had an offer of $2.25 billion from Zynga prior to their purchase of OMGPOP. It is only speculation but who knows what the price would have been if Zynga had waited to purchase OMGPOP until after the release of Angry Birds Space. Would it still have been $180 million?
