That’s right, Angry Birds will be making its way onto new platforms, including the PSP, PS3 and Nintendo DS, but are you addicted enough to stump up for what probably won’t be a 59p game on any of those consoles…?
As yet there are no dates or prices available, but we’re waiting on word about what stages of the development new Angry Birds formats are at.
Sales of Angry Birds on the iPad and iPhone have hit £2 million, and with 100 levels, it’s certainly long enough to exist as a full length, but is it too simple to be fleshed out and still be just as addictive?
Chillingo Co-founder Joe Wee, 35, whose company markets the games, leaked the info to The Sun: “When it was released last December Angry Birds made a slow start but as word got round, everyone’s gone crazy for it,” he said. “We are also releasing it on Nintendo DS, Sony PSP and PS3.”
The news that Angry Birds might be appearing on the PS3 is perhaps the most baffling. What sort of conversion could justify using the capabilities of the PS3? What Wee might be alluding to is the game joining the PlayStation Network.
Would you pay for a fleshed out PSP or Nintendo DS version of Angry Birds, or does its key appeal lie in a quick and easy mobile format? Drop us a line in the comments…
