From the review: "With the explosion of digital distribution, we are currently in a renaissance of arcade and puzzle gaming the likes of which hasn’t been seen since the early 80s. Small, simple games are dominating again as developers use their digital games’ small size and easily understood premises to reach millions of new gamers. For arcade fans like me this is great news, and new titles like The Splatters, freshly released on XBLA, show that a simple concept can go a long way when used smartly. But as always there’s a dark side to any booming craze, and this time it’s good old fashioned laziness: consumer laziness, and developers taking advantage of that by being…well, lazy. Of course I’m talking about Angry Birds."
