OK, so anyone here who own's an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, if you haven't downloaded "Angry Birds" game- where have you been? it's the #1 app to download and it is totally addicting- I'm serious, it's like crack.

There is an "Angry Birds Lite" for free but the full version is 99 cents and worth every penny.

The object of the game is to launch birds from a slingshot at pigs. The sound effects are funny as the birds say "wee wee" when they launch and when they miss the pig's the pig's snort in a "you didn't get me" sort of tone.

I am on level 4-21 and think I have logged over 20 hours of playing- seriously - I have charged my iPod battery and drained it 3 times.

SO. anyone else hooked by this stupid game?

For the record, I am 41 years old and until this I HAVE NEVER PLAYED A VIDEO GAME in my LIFE! Now I know why.

I have the penguin slide. its a free game, and you have to figure out the puzzle on how to bump the penguin into the ice hole. Makes ya think.

there is ant smashing game. its a row of ants marching across the screen, and you smash them with your finger, but its fast paced and hard to keep up. I like the slower pace of trying to figure stuff out.

is angry birds fast? that would frustrate me.

no, the reason I had never played a single video game in my life is I was born cross-eyed, and had surgery on my eyes to fix it on my first birthday, because of that, I have very poor hand eye coordination. this game is easy enough for me to play, anyone can do it. Try the free version and see if you like it.
