Well that's surprising, I'll think about getting it when the price drops.

Actually alot more intresting than I was going to give it credit for. Although possibly not my scene, ill certainly be looking into renting it at least

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

I might have to go get this. Along with Super Stardust HD and Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Battle Cars, this will looks like one of the best things on PSN.

This game came out of no where. I had never heard of it, then it gets a good review from the Escapist and Game of the Month from Game Informer... why didn't I know about this? It looks a lot of fun, though, so I might have to try it out.

This reminds me of an old board game called "Loopin' Louie".

Slapping the other player at the end may have sold it for me. This reminds me of Little Big Planet with a motorcycle. Which is way more appealing to me then just Little Big Planet.

It's a small and new developer.

Hello Games was founded last year by a band of four friends who had climbed their way to the top of the pile at great developers like Criterion, Sumo, Kuju, EA and Climax. They have decided to set forth on a brave journey of discovery and adventure to bring some new, funky coloured pixels to the world. [footnote]http://www.joe-danger.com/[/footnote]

We interviewed them while we were at GDC, if you are interested to find out more about them. Hello Games and Joe Danger [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/the-escapist-presents/1596-Hello-Games-and-Joe-Danger].

When I saw a lot of attention being drawn to this on Rock Paper Shotgun, I thought Joe Danger had a PC port. Disappointing to see it's only on the PS3.

Its the super version of Excitebike!

That does look dang fun, and the 2 Player adds the frosting to the cake. Maybe there will be some scenery packs coming in the near future?

Sometimes it is the underhyped games that turn out to be the funnest. Heck Left 4 Dead came out of nowhere practically with zero hype until after it hit gold.

I would buy it if I had a PS3. Definitely looks entertaining, I'll point my bro to this review later.

Loopin' Louie!! That game was too much fun!! Gotta dig it up and see if it still works...

Now this looks fun. Lots of cool flips and slapstick like mishaps. Just my time.
