Rovio, makers of all things avian and angry, have released a new game into the Angry Birds franchise called Angry Birds Action! The game is currently being rolled out softly in a few select regions, so I haven’t had the opportunity to try it out yet. That being said, the game fits the mold of prior releases, where players will pull back on Red, and then let him loose to bounce around a variety of outdoor structures (sound familiar yet?), to see what can be taken down.

[Update: Released] Tips and Tricks to consider when you are playing the upcoming Portal Zen Pinball table. New trailer also released.
Even though we have a week before the new Portal themed pinball table from Zen Studios arrives for all platforms including Android, the fine folks over at Zen Studios shared with us some Tip and Tricks that you might want to keep in mind for when you do end up playing this table once it is released. We also plan to preview this new pinball table over the course of the next couple of days.
Some background: As a life-long fan of video arcades since their beginnings I’m also a tremendous fan of pinball machines. It has only been in the last few years that video emulation of pinball has gotten close to matching the experience. In terms of commercial pinball video games there are two very different camps: On the one hand you have Pinball Arcade that places an emphasis on making reproductions of actual physical machines, on the other you have Zen Pinball that keeps the broad strokes of physical machines in mind but abuses the fact that there are no limitations to what they can do, making only original tables. While, on the whole, I will admit I’m more inclined to enjoy the best converted Pinball Arcade machines there are several Zen Pinball machines I’ve gotten some quality hours with. Rather than have my reviews for these tables go over the merits of the game engines themselves, we’ll assume that the people reading the reviews are familiar with the base games already and are only really interested in a review of just the table itself.
Due to the popularity of The Walking Dead franchise it should not really be much of a surprise that Zen Studios will be bringing The Walking Dead: Season 1 to Zen Pinball in the form of a new tablet to play. Considering how much eye candy, animation and general fun most pinball tables from Zen Studio have, this newly announced The Walking Dead table should be pretty good.
Zen Studios is really promoting their upcoming expansion to their Star Wars pinball series, releasing a new trailer for one of the four upcoming new pinball tables each week. This week is no different with the release of the Star Wars: Masters of the Force pinball table trailer.
As you may know, especially if you follow this site, that Zen Studios is getting ready to launch an expansion to their Star Wars pinball called Star Wars: The Hero Within which will feature four new tables right off the jump. Well today the company has released a new trailer for one of the tables coming with the expansion.
Zen Studios have announced four additional Star Wars themed pinball tables that will be heading to Star Wars pinball in the near future. These new tables are basically a new expansion to Star Wars Pinball called Star Wars Pinball: Heroes Within. Like previous tables, these new ones will highlight specific events from the actual movies.
Zen Pinball will be getting a new table next week themed around Super League Football. When you download and begin playing this new pinball table, you’ll be able to choose which football team you will want to play as. This team will be the one you represent and support in league play and on the global leaderboards.
Pinball Arcade by FarSight Studios is one of the two major pinball platforms on numerous platforms including Android (both mobile and consoles like Ouya). Pinball Arcade up until now would reproduce actual pinball tables that used to exist, and some still do, in arcades and other places, bringing these true to life reproductions to mobile platforms so we could all play them.
