Apple Offering Jetpack Joyride Free via the App Store Facebook Page

Apple is giving away free redemption codes for the excellent Jetpack Joyride game via its App Store Facebook page. Simply head to Facebook.com/AppStore and follow the appropriate directions to receive a redemption code.

Apple rolled out revamped App Store pages on Facebook last year with searching and sharing tools, though this is the first time Apple has actually given away an App to Facebook users, according to sister-site TouchArcade:

It's the first of a new promotion process courtesy of Apple, and I can't wait to see what else they end up giving away for free. Now, I've got no idea either how long this promotion is going to last, when it's going to rotate to something else, and how many promo codes there are to give away...

Seriously, we love Jetpack Joyride and there is absolutely no reason to not take advantage of this offer. Also, it seems you can even generate a code if you already own the game, and then give that code to someone else.

Jetpack Joyride for iPhone is normally $0.99 on the App Store.

sounds like a pretty good deal (for Apple). they hoover up all your personal data in return for a 99c game you'll never play.

Not a FB user, so no free app for me....

Me either. When I get bummed about not getting the free app, I remind myself how great I feel after kicking the Facebook habit and deleting my account entirely. Going on two months Facebook free!
