Frogboy and many others

I don't know if a statistic has been ever made, but I doubt there is a game which was more popular than Windows' Solitaire and I don't think there is any user who hasn't tried even once a game of hearts or minesweeper.

And since Windows vista revamps all of its components, not even the games themselves could have escaped the fury of transformations. Therefore, the next version of Microsoft's operating system will not only come with a redrawn version of solitaire but also with some new games.

And no, it's not just about the games that were included in the Microsoft Plus package. Windows vista will feature a game of chess, which looks very good thanks to its new graphics, a mahjong game and another one which will apparently be called frogboy; according to the Microsoft, this will be completely different from everything we knew.

Minesweeper will have an updated version, and there will probably be other games as well.
