A whole heaping of classic Android/iPhone games will be dolloped into the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace come April 6th, including Angry Birds (yawn), Sonic the Hedgehog (good for a few more spins), Plants vs Zombies (another yawn), Doodle Jump (fun!) and a few others I can’t pass comment on, like geoDefense and Hydro Thuder Go. They’ve been suitably Xbox Live’d with achievements and leaderboards. [Xbox via TechRadar]

When Sega drone Aaron went out of town for a few weeks, his co-workers decided to prank him hard. Except “prank” at Sega apparently means “do him the awesome favour of turning his desk into a Sonic dreamworld”. Amazing.
