eh…Gilbert, Purcell Schaffer were the trail blazers in that crew. David, while he did do some stuff once, like a real long ass time ago is more like b-list personality that specializes in reminiscing and signing ops at a convention.

I never played Angry Birds, never seen it live, and i'm proud. I won't eat the cereal. Birds with eyebrows i can do without.

IamTylerDurden1370d ago (Edited 370d ago )

Not into mobile. Idgaf. Flex...ok. Angry Birds looks dumb af. Not for me. Not into the acquisition or AB craze. Sorry if it offends you. If Sega wanted in on mobile i can think of 800m better spent.

IamTylerDurden1370d ago

Angry Bird sympathizers. I won't even eat the AB gummies. I stay flexing.

Also, my first post wasn't meant as a flex, i was goofing about. AB does look dumb but idc. Man, Angry Army of bird lovin folk. I apologize. Eyebrows on birds are ok.

Probably getting more devs for arcade, Mobile and console platforms.

Profchaos370d ago

Sega has wanted to make it big in the mobile space for the past decade anyone remember that nightmare called sonic 4

Sgt_Slaughter370d ago

One of the unfortunate parts of my Steam library after I bought one of the Sonic Humble Bundles years ago

You're not alone I suffered to that character model and animation still haunts me

SEGA to Acquire Angry Birds Maker Rovio Entertainment for $775M

SEGA has just acquired Angry Birds studio Rovio Entertainment for $775 million, and looks to use the studio's expertise in mobile gaming.

XiNatsuDragnel372d ago

Nice Sega mobile about to make Sonic mobile

solideagle372d ago (Edited 372d ago )

wow 775 million I thought Rovio was going serious downhill. As I saw multiple youtube videos on it. Rovio was supposed to be a juggernaut gaming company but management they went in all direction based only on 1 IP.

We are definitely getting an Angry Birds Sonic edition

DarXyde372d ago

I feel like that was kind of what Shadow the Hedgehog was.

Plenty of edge and seething, and if you played it traditionally (without weapons), Shadow throws himself at enemies.

... Similar enough

Fonsecap371d ago

Nah, we're getting Alexx "The Angry" Kid :)

FinalFantasyFanatic371d ago

Oh god, a mobile game about Angry Sonic, I suppose we already have Ugly Sonic, why not?

Sega upping their own value if anyone wants to acquire them! Not just getting console expertise but mobile now as well.

GameBoyColor372d ago

I doubt being acquired is in their plans. I used to think sega was in the dumps like capcom was in 2012-2014 but they own so many arcades, pachinko machines, and they publish western games in japan. They were able to buy out atlus and now this company, i think they in a position to not be touched.

Viljong372d ago

Nice everything in finland is for sale. We even sold nokia and our own electricity network so global corporations can charge us from something that is made with taxpayer money.

Shane Kim372d ago

Hey, kinda sounds like Sweden.

darkrider372d ago

Sega got angry birds. That's crazy. How did Microsoft let this one escape

thesoftware730372d ago

They were too busy buying the company that wasn't tanking. You know the top-rated ones.

Good for Sega, maybe they can right the ship.

LG_Fox_Brazil372d ago

The top-rated ones managed by rapists, you mean
