Does this include all of the Angry Birds games or only the original? Angry Birds, Angry Birds Seasons, Angry Birds Rio (and possibly others)? I've got all 3 and they have been well worth the buck entry fee. Their continual addition of new levels makes it one of the best values out there for games.

And can we seriously stop with the 50 posts and reposts about some typo in the summary?
