I just read this post that Rovio, the makers of Angry Birds have turned down a 2 billion
dollar acquisition attempt by Zynga. I am happy that the great Angry
Birds series of games are not turned into "Angry Birds-ville". The two gaming
companies are fundamentally different... Zynga is the new social gaming giant,
while Rovio is more of the traditional gaming business model on mobile. Both
have good potential of growth, but in different ways.
Personally, I dont like the Zynga gaming model... it
is too irritating (ads, popups, timeouts, buy credits etc.). I'm more
confortable buying the game once, and playing it forever without any
interruptions.
