After Surging Past Angry Birds, The Heist Now Selling An App A Second

For as long as I can remember, there has been one app that has constantly held the top paid app spot in Apple's App Store: Angry Birds. Sure, other apps surge to the top briefly. But Angry Birds always comes flying right back. But a new app appears to be bucking that trend. Today is day 3 of The Heist's reign, and sales are quickening. As The Loop noted after a partial day 1, The Heist saw download numbers just over 25,000. This was already enough to overtake Angry Birds. But what's really remarkable are the day two numbers. There were 89,798 downloads of The Heist on day two. Again, that's for a paid app ($0.99).
