Illustration: ‘Tiny Wings, Fat Bird’ in Hyper #212
May 10th, 2011 | Purvis
You’ve gorged yourself on casual games. Time itself has been ferociously consumed by a tiny, insatiable screen, and it’s time to take a good, long, hardcore look at what you’ve become.
In Hyper #212, Daniel Golding discusses what little relevance the terms ‘hardcore’ and ‘casual’ have in the growing touch phone and iPadian markets. Be wary, there’s a reason the tiny winged bird can’t fly. He’s not just genetically inferior to regular birds, he also ate your hardcore games and now the gluttonous bitch is morbidly obese. Pray he doesn’t roll over.
(Personally, I’m dealing with my own personal rainbow coloured, jewel encrusted, lightning addiction.)
