"When we heard about a real-world Angry Birds game at CES, we were at first amused, then curious, then a little hungry, so we sent G4's resident board game aficiado Kevin "I Love Risk!" Kelly down to the show floor with a video camera so we could see how Angry Birds looks when not played on an iPhone or Droid."
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.
If you want to remain relevant you need a mobile powerhouse. MS got Minecraft, maybe King soon, T2 got Zynga, EA got Glu, Tencent got most of the other big ones.
Sony is likely looking for one too or they will be left behind.
Sony already owns the #2 highest grossing mobile game ever in Fate/Grand Order.
That game is close to Genshin Impact levels of monthly revenue.
Well angry birds still makes money so it’s not a dead horse. They just need another hit.
Looks like something MS would grab. I wont be surprised some how ms gets Sega with this included magically.
We could fund more games like Sonic Mania
We could buy the music rights back to Sonic 3
We could reboot some old franchises like Ristar, Shinobi, Gunstar Heroes or Golden Axe
...Nah. Angry Birds it is
Wait, have they even made anything since then? Thought they were a one-hit wonder lol.
I didn't know they did a bunch of stuff prior to Angry Birds:

Pretty much everything since has been a spin off. Now maybe Sega will make Angry Chaos or something similar.
Mojang only made one game and Microsoft still purchased them for $4 billion
Sometimes one property is all you need especially when it’s lucrative
Rovio should be embarrassed over the way it's handled Angry Birds.
