Joe Danger: The Movie

Joe Danger, a downloadable title released on PSN in 2010, never got the attention it deserved. The debut effort from independent Guildford studio Hello Games was a cheery and sweet racer, to the point it even had grinning smiles beaming from background scenery, and quite possibly the happiest game of 2010.
The sequel, currently being developed for unannounced platforms, looks to inject more versatility into the core mechanics by placing adaptable stuntman Joe Danger on different vehicles and having him drive through a multitude of movie sets. Underneath its breezy exterior lies a game obsessed with compulsive score runs and joyous collectible gathering, with one minecart level in particular forcing us into a divine loop of botch jobs and ego-sapping restarts. Bliss.

Oh and cant wait for SSX!

SSX could well be a timesink game. I do like the autolog system, and it seems that's it appearing in all future EA titles that can suit such a feature.

Escape Plan is a close 2nd.

Although the lunch of the first skipped me by I am now well and truly pumped for the next instalment.
