Geekscape Mobile: I Don’t Like ‘Angry Birds’, But ‘Angry Birds Go!’ Looks Awesome!
Briefly: I don’t like Angry Birds.
I’ve tried to put a good hour into any one of the franchise’s countless titles. The Star Wars version looks really cool, and the fact that a tiny developer could turn a simple game about shooting birds into pigs into a worldwide phenomenon is an incredible achievement, but I simply find the games insanely boring, and not really that much fun. I’m also getting a little bit sick of seeing that damned red bird every time I turn a corner.
All that being said, Angry Birds Go! looks fantastic.
Sure, it forgoes the shooting of birds into pigs completely, and instead takes on the Mario Kart ruled kart-racing genre. The thing is, I can’t play Mario Kart on my iPhone, and my search for a really good iOS kart racer has come up short (I’m open to suggestions).
Angry Birds Go! is a free-to-play racer that hits iOS, Android, and even Windows Phone and Blackberry 10 on December 11th. Watch the first trailer for the game below, and admit that it looks awesome!
