Why not a PS3 playstation store version of the game?	gdesbiens	04/26/2009 - 20:45
I will explain my point: I do have a computer, but I do not use it for games anymore since I have a game console. I would really like to buy this game on PS3. In fact, this game could be available for download on the playstation store: it's fast, efficient and really easy. In fact, I do get a lot of games for my PS3 on the playstation store. I really think that this would be a deal for 2D BOY and for the ton of users waiting for that game to come on the console. Sincerely, gdesbiens

Meh, it wouldn't feel as good with a gamepad. The wii's motion sensing thing is much better then an analog stick. Last modified Mon, 04/27/2009 - 10:44 by TheWampaKing

Doubtfull that they will try to port it to the PS3 as there are several large obsticals that have to be overcome to port a PC game to it. This is also why some companies release the PS3 version last. It's a real pain to code for!

TheWampaKing is right, Wiimote > gamepad is the reason they didn't port it to other consoles. I think it's mentioned somewhere in these interviews: http://goofans.com/world-of-goo/about-2d-boy

Magic is lost with just the D-pad. New Motto (one of them): "Trackpad! Not Directional Pad! KEEP-A THE MAGIC, 2D BOY!"

2dvoy outright said they never even considered the xbix 360/ps3, since this kind of game would only work with the wiimote/mouse.
No problem with the controller	jesus2099	11/13/2009 - 09:03
Get any 5€ USB mouse and plug it in your PS3, it works. There is really no worry to have about controllers. I don't use my PC to play either, and it would be so cool to have such a great game* to play from the PlayStationStore ! * It's what everybody says.
