30 มี.ค.55 Angry Birds Downloads Hit Half a Billion
The Angry Birds app has now been downloaded 500 million times, which makes it the most downloaded game ever. The addictive app, created two years ago by Finnish company Rovio, is also one of the most played games in gaming history. A Rovio spokesperson said gamers average about 300 million minutes of playing time every day. That works out to around 200,000 years of Angry Birds playing time in total. More than 400 billion angry birds have been created to wreak their havoc. Mikael Hed, CEO of Rovio, said: “This is a fantastic landmark achievement for us, and we’re extremely delighted.…We remain committed to creating more fun experiences and bringing exceptional quality to Angry Birds fans everywhere.”
Angry Birds costs just $0.99 for the latest version and is number two on the iPhone App Store. The free version holds the number 20 spot in the store, while two more editions are in the top twelve. Rovio has also heavily marketed Angry Birds products, including 10 million soft toys, books and clothing shipped worldwide. The company recently bought an animation studio and will soon start releasing Angry Birds cartoons, including a movie version. Other plans include opening retail stores in Finland and China. Rovio hopes to cash in on the game’s popularity in China, where it has become the most counterfeited brand in the country. The company is creating merchandise products including a Chinese-language Angry Birds cook book.
