'The Osbournes' video slots game Microgaming has been launched and stars the whole family, including Minnie the dog. Online bingo players who regularly visit Bingo Street will remember that Sharon Osbourne was once the face of Gala Bingo before moving on to new ventures. For Microgaming, the new release comes soon after its high profile Hitman offering earlier in the year. The Osbournes game is the product of an exclusive licensing agreement between Microgaming and the Osbourne family and will be made available on all online casinos powered by Microgaming gambling software. The agreement marks the latest spin-off from the popular reality TV show "The Osbournes" which ran through to March 2005. Since the show went off air, all members of the family have found new careers in the entertainment industry with Sharon fronting X Factor and Kelly starring in the musical, Chicago. Sharon Osbourne said of the new game: "The developers at Microgaming have done a fantastic job at bringing all our family to life within the game and they've even managed to immortalise my beloved dog, Minnie! I'll certainly have a little flutter." For his part, Microgaming CEO Roger Raatgever gushed: "This announcement isn't just about one of the biggest game launches of the year, but one of the biggest game launches since this industry started - from any software provider. To be launching a video slot featuring one of the most famous entertainment families in the world just shows how far into the entertainment industry we've come and long may it continue. We set out to create a video slot that blends fantastic graphics and gameplay with striking new features and a touch of celebrity; and we believe we've achieved that. From the moment we announced this game was coming, we've had players from all over the world contacting our operators for the release date. Well, the wait is over. Enjoy!" Like many bingo online punters, I still liked Sharon best when she fronted Gala Bingo. Written by John Witherspoon – Playing bingo online is fun.
