China opens 'Angry Birds' based theme park

Changsha, a city in China's Hunan province, has opened up an Angry Birds-based theme park, but it appears they did so without proper licenses.

CBS says the park allows visitors to shoot stuffed birds with giant slingshots to knock down items and pig balloons.



Rovio, the developer of the game says it would love to partner with the park but has not been contacted.

Says a Chinese park official:

This [Angry Birds attraction] serves as a method for people to purge themselves and to gain happiness.

  So basically if Rovio wanted too they could shut down that park. China should consider themselves lucky they don't lol.

  Duuuhhhhh!!! They never get licenses...and if Rovio doesn't want to get banned outright in China, they won't even attempt to sue a Chinese company.
  
  I have to wonder how long this would actually be fun anyway. I mean, angry birds has tons of different bird types that do all sorts of different things, and there are no lines...and it still get boring after 5 minutes.

  Too bad it's not like those Japenese games and they shoot each other at the walls...That might be worth watching.
