Angry Birds: The Pigs Will Have Their Revenge

In the few short years since Angry Birds was released it has become a cultural phenomenon. Heck even my dog and cat both have toys based on the series.  Our feathered friends have traveled to space and beyond but when do the pigs get their revenge? Rumors are that Rovio is looking to add the option to play as the pigs in the next chapter of the oh so addicting series. There would be a variety of pigs on board to help you defend the eggs the pigs pilfered from the birds. Keeping with the theory if it ain”t broke don’t fix it, the game will still be physics based and involve the catapulting of pigs at birds who try to get their eggs back into the now famous wood and stone structures.

Maybe the pigs were wrong to steal the birds eggs but I think it’s due time the pigs get to fight back for the pig popping genocide the birds have subjected them to. If speculation holds true look for the new game to be released before the end of the year. Rest assured Don’t Hate The Geek will inform you of all the details if and when they become available. I wonder what the new game will be called, Pissed Off Pigs perhaps?

Rovio is looking at rolling out the payment software in 2011, probably quarter one or two.  According to Peter Vesterbacka, head of Rovio’s business development in North America, Rovio is wanting to do this to “give operators some revenue, compared to none.”  Read more: Rovio to Look to Billing Apps
