Deffo milking it! I'm quite bored of it now and still have many levels left to finish on seasons version. At one point I was obsessed with getting 3 stars on the original one, but now it's way too jar and rather boring. I guess I will end up buying this anyway! Sadly.
Yeah, you're right. This will only target the 10,000,000 Angry Birds players. What are they going to do??
I wished they showed a bit of gameplay, but oh well. I loved the game until it got so big and maybe just a tiny bit overdone. Now it's good, but it's lost its shine IMO
Curious if this will be free or not. I'm not sure how it wouldn't be, it seems kind of tacky to need to pay for what basically amounts to interactive advertising for a movie, no?
Yeah it will probably be free. There's probably gonna be a load of ads on it telling you to check out the movie. But it might be paid, by including exclusives to the movie. Who knows?
Amazon bought the exclusive debut rights for Angry Birds Rio: http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/14/angry-birds-rio-will-be-exclusive-to-amazon-appstore-on-android/ Will be out at first only exclusively on the amazon android sub-store, it might be months until it comes to iOS, depends what aggreement amazon exactly bought. Or maybe never?
PocketGamer just released a video of Rio with gameplay. And it shows a battle between the birds and a giant white one (the bad guy from the trailer). Interesting. See it for yourselves.... http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/iPhone/Angry+Birds+Rio/video.asp?c=28330
I hope that the game has a more stylized visual style, just like in that trailer. If it's the same Angry Birds as before, I'm not buying it.
This will without a doubt be the best Angry Birds yet! The monkeys are awesome and I can't believe there are boss battles. Finally, AB with a fresh twist!
Yesterday they announced the release date: March 22. Just 7 days away. But its only 45 levels with increased difficulty and boss battles
