Chris Buffa (Modojo): Every significant video game character left humble 2D beginnings for 3D, exchanging colorful sprites for polygons, with Mario, Mega Man and Sonic the Hedgehog among the most notable heroes to make the list. There's nothing wrong with 2D per se. It's just that, eventually, developers set out to try something different that breathes new life in a franchise. That, and the mass market has a love affair with flashy 3D visuals.

According to Rovio, the redundancies are due to Angry Birds Dream Blast "not... performing as expected."

The Japan-based entertainment conglomerate is expected to pay about $1 billion for Rovio Entertainment.
Wait, have they even made anything since then? Thought they were a one-hit wonder lol.

Rovio should be embarrassed over the way it's handled Angry Birds.
Just going to say this: Worms went 3D and it was not 1/10th as good as the 2D masterpieces.
