Angry Birds.

Is anyone else addicted to this app/game?
I bought it a couple of weeks ago and have been playing it obsessively...Got most of the worlds unlocked now as a matter of fact. I note that its so popular, Amazon is selling Angry Bird stuffed toys...

1. Mr Gut plays

He pulls it out anytime he has to wait for me. I refuse to get it because I have a history of addiction to games.

[TZ]

2. I just find that there is something very relaxing

in the virtual smashing and destruction of objects...LOL. :evilgrin:

[siligut]

4. He handed it to me, just to show me.

I liked determining the trajectory and the animals are cute. I can see that it would have a relaxing effect. :)

5. on the bad side

I stayed up late a couple of nights because I was just so determined to solve a level that had been frustrating me.......

3. I got it for free in the Android market.

And yes, I'm addicted. I even downloaded the holiday version.

6. People were playing it at work

So I got it. I am done with the whole thing. 3 stars on all the levels and all the eggs done..lol.

[TZ]

8. Wow. You are good.

Although I've unlocked all the worlds, I only have one egg and a few levels at three stars...

7. My obsession lasted until I got stuck on one level

then I quit playing.

[TZ]

9. I got stuck, but I had other worlds unlocked so I went and did those

and came back to unstick myself....

[LynneSin]

12. I'm still in first world stuck at 3-5

I've even found videos on youtube that show you how to finish the level and I still can't do it.

I just saw where I can purchase an eagle that will help me by-pass the level.

16. The board sticking out

When I read this my wife and I pulled out the iPhones and went back to level 3-5 to see how we did it.

Not the top board sitcking out but the second one down. I just watched my wife kill the whole deal with one shot to the end of that board, twice. I've yet to be successful hitting it like that but I did manage to come in through the roof with 3 birds. It's a tricky level but it can be defeated.

I bought "The Mighty Eagle" last night. Not so much to solve levels for me, it's just fun to watch him work :evilgrin:

[TZ]

20. I bought the Eagle last night too.

It is fun to use for sure...:rofl:

[guitar man]

21. yeah it is

It's a kind of "nuclear option" :rofl:

[pinniped]

19. There's an alternative method. Land a red bird somewhere on the top and....

everything will fall. It doesn't happen all the time, though. Your score should be around 90,000.

10. I like it, but I'm not addicted

I only play it occasionally. Of course, if a level is giving me trouble, I'll keep doing it till I get it, out of sheer stubbornness. :rofl:

11. Guys check out this hilarious Youtube a friend just posted...

24. Effing hilarious!

[SteppingRazor]

13. If I'm playing a game on my phone, it's probably the Live Hold'Em Poker Pro app. But Angry Birds...

is definitely my no. 2 game. Weirdly addicting.

[NV Whino]

14. I have the free version on my iPod

Assuming I ever crack all the levels, that will probably be it for me. Too hard to get the trajectory right on the small screen.

[Initech]

15. Been playing the new levels on the iPhone version. Awesome.

[MilesColtrane]

17. I'm not addicted.

I just love the sound of those green pigs being crushed.

[pinniped]

18. That game is a total waste of time.

I have completed all 5 current levels of the regular version and the 2 holiday versions with 3 stars.

Having spent over 50 hours with this silly game, I have determined that it's a colossal waste of time.

Don't play. Stay away.

23. Then, of all the posters to this thread that have played it,

you will most appreciate this story in today's Houston Press:
