I present: Pong in Silverlight

Update: I have now updated the game to work with the recently released Silverlight 2.

After forgetting about it, I'm now reminded of it today through a post on GameSetWatch.

Seeing as it's quite fitting for this time of year (and so it's here for safekeeping), here is:

Suffice to say, it definitely clinched it for me. Was already planning on getting one, but after seeing it in the flesh - christ it's tiny! - and watching people play with it...

The graphics were good - not PS3 GOOOD - but good enough to not need to dig your eyes out with a spoon, or to not make it difficult to imagine that things are as the games says they are.

All in all, looked VERY awesome, and if you want to have lots of fun this xmas, go with a Wii!
