Angry Birds 2 - Pop those pigs!I noticed in the app store last week that Angry Birds 2 had been released. I loved the original version of the game! I have "Seasons" and "Star Wars" also, but I drew the line at "Bad Piggies". New and improved? I had to check out the latest incarnation of the wildly-popular mobile device game.

You still have the same birds to fling at the piggies, they look a little sharper, but they function the same. The biggest difference in gameplay is that each level is broken down into anywhere from 2-6 separate mission. So, to go from world-1 #2 to World-1 #3, you have to destroy a few pigs. It drags things out a bit, but I noticed that Rovio has made it pretty easy if you stink at the game. They award you with extra birds and ways to earn another chance throughout gameplay.

Endlessly entertaining, and very immersive, the new incarnation of Angry Birds is visually beautiful, and the surround sound that comes out of your ear buds totally takes you away into a world of breaking glass, pig poots, and sinister laughter. Very highly recommended if you need a quick burst of online gaming through the course of your day.
