Rumors are a funny thing. Sometimes so much time passes after they happen that people forgot they existed in the first place. Back in 2010, Rovio's CEO Peter Vesterbacka reportedly told a crowd at the Virtual Goods Summit that "We are not going to do a sequel. We want to surprise people. No one has told the story from the pigs point of view." That led to plenty of speculation… followed by 18 months of complete silence on the topic.
