Google users certainly know that the Mountain View-based company uses doodles to celebrate special occasions, such as national holidays, and every once in a while, the search giant turns to pretty fun games that make us spend quite some time playing instead of working.

Microsoft, on the other hand, uses Bing to provide us with stunning photos from all over the world, and the Bing homepage of the day is already known as one of the best sources of desktop wallpapers for users all over the world.

But today, the company too has introduced a game in its search engine results page, allowing users to play the classic game called Pong right in their browsers.

Playing Pong is not at all difficult, and all you have to do is make sure that you don't let the ball pass. Apparently, you're playing against Bing, and if you're really a skilled gamer, you should have no problem defeating it.

Obviously, the game is still in its early days, and while there's no info on whether the company could improve it or not, we'd love to see some options to increase difficulty, change the background, pick a different board, or play with the keyboard arrows.

P.S.: you must be using the US-based version of Bing to play it.
