Angry Birds by Rovio Mobile - The survival of the Angry Birds is at stake. Dish out revenge on the greedy pigs who stole their eggs. Use the unique powers of each bird to destroy the pigs’ fortresses. Angry Birds features challenging & lifelike physics-based gameplay and hours of replay value. Each of the 150 levels requires logic, skill, and force to solve.

One of the biggest iPhone games of all times is now possibly the biggest Android game to date. Being downloaded over 2 Million times within the first 36 hours of it's release. This game is so extremely popular for a reason. It's hours, and hours of fun. Will keep you busy and entertained for a long time, (or your kids). There is up to 5 different birds that each have unique skills or powers that you fling into the pigs fortresses to win. The Objective of the game is to take out there structure and get revenge on the pigs inside. Get bonus points for winning with birds left over, or get lucky and find that sweet spot that takes out the entire thing and all pigs in 1 shot. Once you learn or discover how to take out each level with the least shots as possible you can earn up to 3 stars. Or just simply beat that level and you'll most likely only be awarded 1 star, but will unlock the next level. This game has very vivid colors, exceptionally great graphics, and the physics are the best I've seen in a mobile game. Sometimes if you wait long enough the physics will take effect and the pig will roll off, or a structure will fall over... Timber!


Pros & Cons:

Pros
- Vibrant Colors and 3D Graphics
- 3 Sets of 50, for 150 Levels Total (Hours of Time Wasting & Bird Slingin Challenges)
- FroYo App2SD Support
- Realistic Physics makes this game "that" much better than the rest
- Some of the Best Sound Effects of any game
- Multi-Touch, Pinch to Zoom in and out on Levels for a birds eye view

Cons
- Game sounds can be irritating to some, or those around you
- Only full game option currently on market has adds
(Paid Version without adds is said to be coming to Android Market very soon for $0.99)
- No other cons, this game is amazing


Conclusion: In the end I must say that I can completely recommend you download, or when available buy Angry Birds. It by far is one of the top games in the entire Android Market. It's hours of playtime and the replay value alone make it totally worth it. So go download it now, delete something if you need room. Scan the QR Code above and get to slinging those Angry Birds! :p

The only reason I haven't played this game is because of how addicting I've heard it is!

Decisions play this and lose what little social life I have left or pass by on what appears to be a great game?

For those Captivate users not upgraded to the JH7 firmware yet, you may have to use the AppBrain.com app and their Fast Web Installer app to download it, as it has been reported that it is not showing up in the Market for some users. Or grab the .apk from somewhere and use the Side-load Wonder Machinehttp://www.androidcentral.com/sideload-android-apps-all-you-want-sideload-wonder-machine from Android Central or ADB from the Android SDK to push it to your phone...

Awesome review!! Love this game :-D

I do not agree with the con for sound, because Rovio makes it easy to mute the sound. I honestly play with the sound muted most of the time.

I do agree that the physics are awesome and would also like to add that the level design and the thought behind the game is also very unique, fun, and captivating.

The game is addicting and I love launching the birds and trying to find the "sweet spot" in levels where you can take out all of the pigs with 1 bird!!
