Angry Birds hits 10 million downloads
Rovio’s announced today that Angry Birds has hit 10 million downloads on the App Store.
A Halloween version of the game was released last Thursday, with Rovio confirming earlier this week it had sold 1 million units from the App Store.
“It feels fantastic to have such a phenomenal number of customers and fans,” said Rovio CEO, Mikael Hed.
“Angry Birds is truly taking mobile gaming to the mainstream. It is a privilege to develop games and provide entertainment for so many people worldwide.”
If you haven’t gotten on the bandwagon, it’s probably best you join it. Do that here.

Properly mental number… though I must admit that I can’t say I rated the game.

It’s a perfect piece of mobile gaming.
You can pick it up and play for 2 minutes or you can spend 2 hours trying to 3 star everything.
Couple that with a sub-quid price point (or free on teh Android) and you’re gonna sell by the fuckin truck-load.

I didn’t think much of it to start with but now I’m fearing for my phone’s “life” as I’ve got hooked on it. Evil bloody game.
