I put into the article

Tris states that I am simply promoting Angry Birds, and that it doesn't help the article to have it in there. I think that it does help display the subject's legacy, in that there are popular games based off of it. What do you think? Blake ( Talk· Edits) 15:22, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
Masem, it is a fact that Angry Birds was released after Crush the Castle. If anything the former can be said to have been influenced by the latter. The article is better now that most references to a different game have been removed. I'm still not convinced it is very informative though. The popularity of user created levels is not discussed; hundreds of thousands have been submitted online and on various forums. This is a large part of the game's legacy.-- Tris23 ( talk) 07:20, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
For anyone looking for a citation about which came first, see the GamaSutra article "Threes, clones and cornflakes: A view on 'casual games", which includes the following: Even Angry Birds owes a debt, [editorial director of Nickelodeon's Addicting Games] says, to the "flinger" mechanic from one of her favorite browser game series, Crush the Castle. -- Replysixty ( talk) 01:46, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
Wow. I played CtC before Angry Birds even showed up. Mobile Ports may be a different matter, but Angry Birds DEFINITELY ripped off CtC's Armor Games. Tallaussiebloke ( talk) 22:25, 26 October 2018 (UTC)
You have to be an absolute moron to not see the bias in this article. It doesn't even mention the fact that this game predates "Angry Birds", instead it talks as if this game is a cheap rip off. Once again Wikipedia is here to misinform the masses! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.171.155.153 ( talk) 01:47, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
