    Using WebGL complete with local storage, you will soon be able to play Angry Birds online or offline in your Chrome browser. The game plays at a full 60 frames per second – more than sufficient for the high-res experience that is Angry Birds.

    Better still? Rovio is offering special levels for Google Chrome including “chrome bombs” and clouds shaped like the logo. The game is available now with special add-ons available over the next few days including the Mighty Eagle using Chrome’s payment system.
