But YouTuber Giaco Whatever came up with an incredibly dangerous way to make the game interesting again: try it in real life with a flying razor blade.
In the same week that we were given the news of a Tetris trilogy, we are also cursed with the knowledge that a Fruit Ninja movie is in development. Yes, that is the game where you slice fruit in half for as long as you can.
It's an ad, so bear with the never ending attempts to sneak in Toaster Strudels but here's master swordsman and multiple Guinness World Records holder Isao Machii slicing up fruit with a real sword better than any wannabe ninja can on his phone.
In one of those Internet things that exists solely to delight us, science fiction author Neal Stephenson starts slicing up fruit (and other things) with swords, shot at about 2,300 frames per second. Come for the cantaloupe, stay for the amazing shot of Stephenson demolishing a plastic water bottle with his…

Your Fruit Ninja high score is irrelevant. In fact, no game of Fruit Ninja that you've played in your life so far matters anymore, not now that a motion tracking system, 5.1 surround sound, and a Wiimote have given the popular mobile game this insane virtual reality iteration. The only thing the CAVE—the Cave…

Aurora Feint's mobile social gaming network for Android launches today with top iOS games like Fruit Ninja, MiniSuadron, Super Slyder, The Moron Test, and Tic Tac Toe. Announced earlier this summer, OpenFeint aims to be a cross-platform gaming ecosystem.
Fruit Ninja, an iPhone favorite, is coming to the iPad this week, the bigger dojo allowing for more luxurious, 8-finger multi-touch slashing and head-to-head competition against other players. Bigger, riper fruits and craftier ninjas? Sounds good to me. [TouchArcade]
