Angry Birds has gone Live in an amusing promo clip from phone network T-Mobile – featuring an amazingly bigger-than-life-sized version of the popular app-based game from Rovio Mobile.
Set in Barcelona, before a huge real-life construct of an Angry Birds level, the ad shows members of the public approaching the generic smartphone which displays the familiar game setting.
One fellow thinks he’ll take a go dragging the feathered flyer in catapult launcher, believing this to be just his beloved game the gent is startled to see a massive red bird burst from a container and set flight and collide into a massive structure featuring exploding green pigs. Essentially an air cannon controlled by mobile!
Cue the brass band playing the always-stuck-in-our-heads theme music and a sequence of giant-scale bird flinging begins! Bringing together a massive joyous crowd – It’s truly a sight!
T-Mobile have staged massive stunts like this before, including a sing-along in Trafalgar Square, dances in Liverpool Station, and most recently a very funny Royal Wedding skit featuring a look-alike Windsor family and guests busting a move down the aisle of Westminster Abbey!
We’re admittedly a little slow on the uptake with this one, it’s been online for a couple of months now but it’s well worth a look and is started to snowball onto Facebook with Angry Birds addicted pals reposting the YouTube link. Why not share this gem of an ad with your friends? Tell ‘em the Gadget Helpline sent ya!
