London Philharmonic Orchestra Does Angry Birds

December 22, 2011 by noemi Leave a Comment

Angry Birds has gotten old for a lot of people, but tell that to my little nephews who forget all their worries when they hear the Angry Birds theme playing on the iPad. They may not be able to play the game yet, but the mere sound of the music makes them happy. Would that adults be as simple!

Whether or not you are still enticed by the idea of playing what might very well be one of the most successful mobile games, I think that it is hard to deny that the playful theme music is quite irresistible. So irresistible that even the famed London Philharmonic Orchestra decided to play around with the music and give it their own special treatment.

Who doesn’t like receiving free stuff?

And that’s how we are going to end the week – by letting you in on a not-so-secret way to get your hands on a free copy of RAGE for the PlayStation 3.

If you regularly spend part of your disposable income on video games, skip this part. You already know what RAGE is. For those who may not know much about the game, though, RAGE is arguably the hottest video game this holiday season. That should be enough to make you want to have a copy, shouldn’t it?

Angry Birds Rio Trailer

That little game that pitted irate birds against green pigs has reached such proportions that everyone around the world knows about it by now. Angry Birds, the game, has converted many a self-proclaimed non-gamer into chronic casual gamers. From the iPhone to the iPad, you will see people swiping and cursing just to get those irritating viridescent hogs out of the way. And, I bet you know just how tough those pigs can be!

There have been several versions of the game, but now, the birds and the pigs are coming to the big screen! In a few months, we can all queue up at the theater to see Angry Birds Rio the movie. The plot – if it can be called that – is ridiculous, I think. Still, the game itself is so ridiculous that it is good, isn’t it? So anyway, the birds are shipped off to Rio for a “vacation”. READ: They are caged and kidnapped. Of course, the protagonists escape from their cages, and that’s when they discover hundreds of other captive birds.

Angry Birds Rio will also be released as a game to complete your avian experience. Here’s the newly released trailer to get your adrenaline going.

Oh, and if you are impatient and cannot wait till March, you can get the Valentine’s Day edition in a week or so. Of course, it goes without saying that this version will have lots of pink in it. 🙂
