Angry Birds finally arrived on the Windows Phone 7 platform today, promising users of the Microsoft platform the same bird-lobbing fun many of us have been enjoying for a while.
By my count, Windows Phone 7 is the fifth major mobile platform supported by Angry Birds, following the iOS, Android, Symbian and WebOS releases. There are also PC, Mac and Web versions of the game.
In terms of the Windows Phone 7 conversion, Angry Birds plays pretty much the same as all the other versions, although there are significantly less levels than the iPhone and Android releases. However, the graphics look bright and vibrant on our Samsung Omnia 7 device, and the inclusion of Xbox Live support is a real boon for Microsoft gamers.
The next port of the original Angry Birds could be for the BlackBerry Playbook, unless the game’s developer Rovio decides enough is enough – and on current form this isn’t going to happen anytime time soon.
