Angry Birds coming to Facebook on Valentine's Day

PanARMENIAN.Net - The smash hit Rovio game Angry Birds is coming to Facebook on Valentine's Day, ReadWriteWeb reports.

The release will happen fast, rolling out to all 800 million users at once as opposed to a slow Facebook feature rollout like Timeline, which first became available to New Zealand users, then to all - and now it's being forced upon everyone. The big launch takes place in Jakarta.

Indonesia holds the world's second-largest Facebook population, trailing only the United States. With its entrance into the Facebook ecosystem, Angry Birds will transform into a social game complete with leaderboards so users can challenge their friends, the report says

Angry Birds has been downloaded more than 700 million times, and is on its way to pass one billion in 2012. It has expanded from just an iOS and Android game. It is coming to Samsung Smart TVs as part of the Internet-connected TV future. Facebook is the next obvious move for the fast-growing game. Rovio's Peter Vesterbacka says that Angry Birds will even have a payments solution for Facebook.
