One of my favorite board games as a kids was Monopoly. I never seemed to win a lot but I liked playing. I still have it at the house, which my kids now play. When Monopoly came out for Android, I was a bit skeptical. Could

Angry Birds Beta Now Available

b_500_274_16777215_0___images_stories_news_angrybirds_angry-birds-rovio-android.png

We just wanted to let everyone know that Angry Birds Beta is now in the Android Market. So what are you waiting for.... Oh, what is Angry Birds? Well if you must know before you download it it is a strategy/action/carnage game that is similar to being a kid and destroying ant hills.

In this game there are birds, of course, and pigs.... what? wait... Well anyways the birds are mad at the pigs and want to destroy them, your job is to help the birds by shooting themselves at the pigs to destroy them. Trust me it is a BLAST, in more ways then one.

Angry birds has been the App Stores #1 game for awhile now and for good reason. It is a ton of fun. It has lots to do. It is easy to pick up and play a couple levels, though hard to stop. It will keep you thinking on the best way to take down those horrible piggies. And above all it just works! Sure there are other games on the market that kinda resemble it, but Angry Birds is polished to near perfection and that is why it is the best at what it does.

The game play is simple just aim birds with a slingshot at the piggies, but the problem is that the piggies have built themselves a fortress that you must break through. At your disposal are a limited amount of birds, but there are different kinds of birds some simply explode in different ways while others knock stuff around and everything in between. The love of the game that has made it super popular is just how fun it is and how easy it is to get into.

Look for a mini review of the beta later today, but for now what are you waiting for. No amount of words can possibly explain the fun that is to be had, so open the market and put down Angry Birds! No word on an exact price yet.

As a MAJOR warning, there is currently an app in the market place called Angry Birds for 1.99 by CrazyAndroidApps. This is not the beta of Angry Birds. We will provide links to the beta if you are unsure which one to download.
