Instabuy for me.

Don't know if this was any good on PS3, but it looked great fun.

Love the new style and much more iPad friendly, goody re Joe Danger on XBLA though would be tough to challenge Trials HD for the spotlight.. Still as there are many FPS, RPGs and we don't have much to choose from for physics platforming games!

I would think its ever more brilliant if Trials HD was to be also released on PS3, that game deserves as much loving/hating as widely as possible!

I thought Microsoft didn't allow games to be released on XBLA that had been released on PSN prior?

Always thought this looked fun, will definitely check out the demo.

One of the best things on PSN. Really looking forward to the second one.

@Monkey_Puncher They don't allow it unless it has additional content. Which this supposedly has, hence the name Special Edition.

This is a fantastic game, so great news for Xbox-only owners.

I guess that Hello Games' stance on XBLA has changed - they didn't see it in a very favourable light when Joe Danger originally came out.

They reserve the right not to, which is not the same thing as "don't allow".

That's a pretty funny statement, because, if you think about it they own the platform, I think they reserve the right not to publish anything if they don't want to, no one can force them.

Not surprising considering the sales of Trials HD. That thing's a cash cow. Trials: E, this and the sequel is a few of the same type of game though and Trials: E definitely gets priority. Depends on price and how well it plays.

Had a go at the demo on PS3, wasn't sure about it. This gives me a reason to give it another try and make my mind up.

I bought this for PS3 and it's a good game. But I rarely play my PSN games, preferring the 360 as I do. So it's lay forgotten on the HD. And I'm sad about that, so sad. But I'm happy for this to come to 360 and will likely get it again as I prefer the 360 controller and achievements/XBL leaderboards. Though I'll probably wait for a sale. As I already own it. You though, you should buy it immediately upon release.
