Plants vs. Zombies breaks iPhone record

As Bejeweled 2 sparkles past 3m sales.

PopCap's tour de force Plants vs. Zombies has beaten App Store records by selling over 300,000 copies in just nine days.

At an unmissable price of £1.79, that means the game has grossed £537,000.

PopCap's Bejeweled 2, meanwhile, has soldiered on past 3m sales on the App Store. Peggle has also topped the Top Grossing App Store list. PopCap offers Bookworm and Chuzzle on iPhone, too.

No wonder PopCap co-founder John Vechey was so relaxed when we talked to him recently.
