Giant Bomb gets a special mention from the makers of SMB
" @Hamz said:Any specifics on why?" Great to see SMB getting such overwhelming attention. Even more so to hear them give a shout out to Giant Bomb....now if only they would release a PSN version of the game. "their answer to that is never, but it'll be on Steam next month "
Anyways, it's awesome that the Super Meat Boy guys are loving the Giant Bomb coverage of the game. The quick look and lemon lens do seem to convey how you play the game extremely well.
" @DOUBLESHOCK said:Sony didn't respond to them in time, aka they didn't care. So they had to finish the game, make contracts etc and Sony was too late. Not their fault, blame Sony." @Hamz said:Any specifics on why? "" Great to see SMB getting such overwhelming attention.

" Deserved, GB sold this game for me. "Same for me as well. I was interested a little before the quick look, but once I watched it, I was sold.
I honestly had no interest in the game prior to the Quick Look. Then I downloaded the trial to play for myself and eventually bought it because it was a lot of "f.u.n.*"
I admit I had zero interest in this game until I heard them talking about it on the Bombcast, and then I tried the demo. I was hooked.

The game designers were on the indiegames.com podcast (podcast #5 if you want to listen to it) and discussed this. The official answer was "They were a little late to the party." Basically when they were trying to get Sony interested, Sony was asking about Goo, a game which was already cancelled, months after they submitted a working build of SMB. Then it took a month before Sony said, "Hey, can we get a working build of that?" Sony's lack of interested compared to Microsoft's enthusiasm ended up with Team Meat signing with Microsoft. The game is actually coded for the PS3 but they would have had to go back into negotiations with Microsoft to get a PS3 release so they just kinda said, "Nevermind."" @Hamz: I'm pretty sure they've hinted that they contacted Sony, but Sony weren't taking them seriously and were taking far too long to get back to them. Meanwhile they were deep in negotiations with MS who wanted to do a deal that prevented it's release on PSN, which they agreed to. They've never explicitly said it, but that's the vibe I get from them. But it's coming to PC and Wiiware, so most people will be able to play it on one platform or another. Anyways, it's awesome that the Super Meat Boy guys are loving the Giant Bomb coverage of the game. The quick look and lemon lens do seem to convey how you play the game extremely well. "
