The term ‘exclusive’ certainly doesn’t have the same meaning in the gaming industry as it did just six years ago. Back then, if you chose a console, you could expect to play a certain catalogue of games that no other system would ever receive. However, with contracts taking on new guises, and in the extreme financial climate we find ourselves in, developers need to adapt to the market in order to survive.
Joe Danger has been a PSN exclusive for a long time, with the developers themselves self-professed Playstation fans. Yet, just a few weeks ago, it was announced Hello Games were bringing their enormously successful game to Xbox Live, but also giving it new features not before seen on Playstation 3 (ouch).
Being an older game with a few new features, and a new platform to appeal to, is Joe in danger of wearing out his welcome?
Hello Games founder Sean Murray said the letter "broke our hearts and made us want to set things right". It has now been relaunched on iOS.
What an amazing story, Joe Danger was a fantastic game and hearing about these kinds of stories makes me much happier than hearing adults bicker back and forth about which animations a game is re-using and the amount of pixels on the screen.
This is what gaming is really about and I feel like some people just tend to forget that
Hardcore Gamer: The twelfth entry of the Humble Mobile Bundle is now available and offers a lot of variety for very little money.
Hardcore Gamer: Joe Danger is a fantastic stunt racer, and now it has been released for the OUYA.
