This weekend, festival goers in Las Vegas got a chance to play Angry Birds in virtual reality. You, on the other hand, will have to make do with Angry Birds in boring old standard reality.

Angry Birds VR, developed by IMGNATION Studios and Rovio, seems to have you tilting your head to guide a red bird through big white hoops. It uses Samsung's smartphone-powered Gear VR.

Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like we'll ever get a chance to play it. The game features landmarks from the Rock in Rio festival in Las Vegas, and a Rovio spokesperson told Pocket Gamer that the game was "created exclusively for the festival".

Boo and indeed, hiss.
