Criticised for not being quick enough in terms of getting games onto the App Store, mobile publisher Glu is on the money when it comes to the launch of Microsoft's Windows Marketplace for Mobile.
It has Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and World Series of Poker Pro Challenge available globally from day one.
"Windows Marketplace for Mobile provides a great distribution channel for Glu games and we are excited to continue our support of Microsoft's efforts to innovate in line with changing consumer demand," said Greg Ballard, Glu's outgoing CEO and president.
"We look forward to continue providing consumers the opportunity to easily access quality games via the Windows Marketplace for Mobile."
"Windows Marketplace for Mobile represents a great opportunity for mobile application publishers, developers and users everywhere," said Jason Lim, director of ISV and developer experience at Microsoft.
"We welcome Glu Mobile's first releases on Windows Marketplace for Mobile and look forward to continued innovative and quality titles in the future."
The Windows Marketplace for Mobile is now live on WiMob devices and will soon be available via web at marketplace.windowsphone.com.
