I'm sure some of you have downloaded it and have tried it. For those of you who have not, I highly suggest you give it a shot. It's free in the Android Marketplace, and should be .99 - 3.99 or so in Itunes. Anyway check it out, it's pretty fun. I'm on my second go around getting 3 stars on a few levels I have yet to earn.

    I don't know what "beat it" means. Just getting through the levels is pretty simple, it's getting 3 stars on all the levels and getting the achievements that makes it a great replayable game.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Just got it a couple of days ago. Talk about a frustration factor of 9 on trying to get 3 stars i everything! Boy does this game chew up the clock when you're not paying attention.
    Now that i've started it, i have to finish it.
    Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!!

    The App store has really spoiled people over the price of software. Games on a handheld device used to be $30-$50, now if it's more than a dollar people freak out. I promise you quality software will decline QUICKLY if people refuse to pay even the price of a cup of coffee for really good games.

    Games like Angry Birds can obviously pull off the $.99 price because of volume, but most people, especially individual developers, can't spend months writing good software and sell it for a buck in the hopes that millions buy it.

    They can, and will.

    Look at starving artists... they spend weeks on some pieces only to sell it for $500.

    It's about that way with programs.

    Of course some will. Some people just do it for fun. But money is a great motivator, and you will get a lot more people trying to create something good when they're not giving it away. And the douchey mentality that everything should be free is just stupid.

    I don't think everything should be free, i'm just saying that a lot of people will spend a lot of time only to make a few bucks.

    Not even going to download it. The lady next to me on the plane to CES was playing it, and on one of the shuttles to the Venetian, 3 other people were playing it and wouldn't shut up about it.

    Something that enthralling or addictive I can't even think about trying.

    23 hits so far, your all hooked. Good !!! Thought I was the only one. I have it on Ipad and it looks very good. Some of my other favs include Plants Vs Zombies which is very fun also, Words with Friends, NOVA if you want a good shooter. Also suggesting you guys check out Cut the Rope.

    Angry Birds can make you a tad frustrated, but if you want those 3 stars & Golden Eggs you gotta keep at it. Happy Slingshooting !!

    While Angry Birds is a great game, I find that Plants Vs. Zombies is a much better experience. One of the better games I have played in a long time.

    Just got this on my iPod touch, the free Lite version. Pretty fun. I'm really not sure how it assigns stars, and thus how to get 3.
