Breaking News: Minesweepers back in Vista

Minesweepers in Windows Vista

Minesweeper fans can breathe again. According to Joystiq [Via Chris Pirillo], it’s back in Windows Vista. We’re not exactly sure if it ever went away but, on behalf of all our readers who are hooked on it, here’s a hearty three cheers.

The screenshot shows how Minesweepers will appear in Windows Vista with Aero Glass.

    Well thank God for that! I mean, as long as we have minesweeper, we can ignore the crappy OS. :)

    Oh no!!!

    I never quite worked out if I disliked Minesweeper because it was on Windows, or vice versa.

    Come to think of it I didn’t like it much when it was on paper ‘n’ pencil (aka safe mode)

    Hah well our office will probably never get it so I needn’t worry. :)

    OT: Gratz on the new position and blog, John.

    Thanks, Andy, much appreciated. Personally, I hate all games except cricket, so I’m totally immune to Minesweepers :-)

    English Guy, I predict that Vista is launched it will be de rigeur, Minesweepers or not.
