Portable Gamer: February 27th, 2007 was the day that gaming was forever changed by PopCap Games. On that date they unleashed a plague of awesomeness across the landscape of gaming with their casual-slanted puzzle game, Peggle. The overwhelmingly vocal masses of hardcore gamers were left in a perplexed confusion over the game when they weren’t trying to hit orange pegs, because it somehow found a way to conquer the paradox of how to make a casual game appeal to everyone. So when it eventually found its way to iOS, it was only a matter of time before PopCap once again had a hit on their hands.
