    Ha! Like I'm gonna give them anymore money. I'm not giving them money for a paid app that feeds me a bunch of ads. I'm gonna wait until they reverse that.

  22. Newser says:

    Angry birds on graphics steroids. No pigs? And diffilculty is ridiculously easy. Finished already and i'm not that good at it. No challenge whatsoever.

  23. Terry says:

    Why are there ads if it's a paid app?

  24. DataCentre says:

    I haven't seen any ads yet at all. Game is okay, and yeah, so far it's not very challenging.

  25. John W says:

    Why can't they make a universal iphone/ipad app instead of separate apps for each?
