May The Force Be With You – Angry Birds Star Wars HD – iPad App Review


I’m about to admit something that may cause you to question everything you’ve ever known about me. I don’t like Angry Birds. There, I said it. I feel liberated. It is a dark secret to keep when you are an app reviewer, but I don’t like Angry Birds. That is the first thing people ask me about when I tell them what I do for a living.

Physics-based games like that had already been around for a while, and frankly, I was bored with the genre by the time those red birds came around.

I am however, kind of a Star Wars geek (although these days, who isn’t, right?). When I first found out that Rovio was collaborating with LucasFilms to create a bird-brained version of my favorite movie of all time, I was excited and irritated at the same time. Puffy little birds dressed like Chewbacca and Han-flipping-Solo… yes, please! It’s just too bad that the game is so boring.
