Free Angry Birds Rio for Windows is back again! - expired

Intel AppUp is giving away Angry Birds Rio for Windows for free! Limited period only, until January 15 (or while supplies last). I am not sure what this mean, software is just a soft copied, it can be download unlimited time right? Probably they have limited number of downloads. Anyway, this is for new registration only. So this is too bad for me, because I already got my Angry Birds Rio for Windows for free back in September last year.

Intel AppUp also added Chicken Invaders 4 Christmas as the freebie for new registration. Meaning you get US$11.99 worth of games for free!

Intel AppUp recently have being revamped and it looks much better than old version. One of the reason is to make sure Ultrabooks users also have a good user experience with AppUp. The old version of AppUp was actually created for netbook segment, however other Windows based PC also can use it.

The red arrow in picture below showing I already have Angry Birds Rio installed.


The best part about Intel AppUp is I can retain the free software for very long time. Even though I changed to new laptop, I still can download and install the Angry Birds Rio from AppUp for free on new laptop, as long as I use the same user id on AppUp. Another good thing about AppUp is you can try the software for 24 hours before you decide to buy or not. This is very good because you don't need to go through all the process just to get refund in case you find out you don't like the software.

To get your free legal version of Angry Birds Rio and Chicken Invaders 4 Christmas, go to download Intel AppUp now:

Angry Birds party!

I can't wait to post this until next week, so I just post this even I have already posted the Angry Birds movie just few hours ago.

Thanks to Intel AppUp, few months ago, I got my Angry Birds Rio for Windows for free! Now it is updated to 1.4.0. For those that also got this free offer or those that pay USD $4.99, please open up your IntelAppUp and then go to "My Apps" and look for the update if you have not done so.



3 new levels! (all 3 columns from right)



On another note, Angry Birds Chrome also have a Christmas party. For the first time, Angry Birds Chrome is offering Angry Birds Season.



Thing to note is we have to login using google account in order to play Angry Birds Season on Chrome. This also mean need to be connected to intenet to play it. However there is no need to login to play Level 1 and Level 2.



For those that installing Angry Birds Chrome for first time, please wait for a moment for Angry Birds to download and install, especially those with slower connection.



Have a blasting weekend!

Free Angry Birds Rio For Windows - limited period - expired

This free download expire on September 29, 2011, just a few more days, go download it now!

Update: it is expire now, now it cost US$4.99 at Intel AppUp. However there are still a lot of free apps available at AppUp, I am trying a few of them now. :)

I only found out this recently, everyone can get Angry Birds Rio for Windows for Free! Thanks to Intel AppUp, if you register with Intel AppUp now, you can get Angry Birds Rio for your Windows XP and Windows 7, and it is completely free and also it is a legal download software, so no need to worry that is it illegal download or not. It didn't mention about Windows Vista though, but I think it should work as well.

What you need to do is go to Intel AppUp:
Intel AppUp

Download Intel AppUp and install it on your Windows.

Launch Intel AppUp, Click "Sign In" and then "Get one here" to create new account in a pop up windows, fill in name, email, password, and check on to agree terms and conditions blah blah blah, the trick is to stop at payment option registration.

Okay, now go back to the AppUp, sign in with email and password you registered just now, wait for it to sign in and download whatever needed to be download. You should able to find Angry Birds Rio for free on the AppUp. Click download and wait for it. Depend on your network/broadband, it will take a while since it is ~46MB.

Installation will begin automatically right after download completed. Wait for it to complete installation. And once it is done, click "Launch" on AppUp to start playing Angry Birds Rio! :D

Things to note:
1. Not sure you still can get Angry Birds Rio for free if you already register with Intel AppUp, but the FAQ did mention that we can register multiple account, meaning you can use another email to register, and get a-hem-a-hem this free Angry Birds Rio. :)

2. I can only launch this game from AppUp. I cannot launch Angry Birds Rio directly with the shortcut created on desktop during installation, it gives me an error. I tried to launch it by clicking the .exe of Angry Birds Rio, also same error. So I think we have to keep Intel AppUp while to keep playing this game. Update: I can now play Angry Birds Rio by clicking the shortcut directly, probably the installation was not complete at that time. :)
