3 Glitches That Actually Made Games Better

When Space Invaders first came out in the late 1970s, it rapidly became a defining video game of the 1980s. It’s known for being challenging – players have to fight increasingly faster waves of alien ships that speed up as they approach. Interestingly, this increasing speed wasn’t intentional! Space Invaders was originally programmed for computer hardware that couldn’t handle displaying many objects on the screen at once. This caused the game to start slowly, but as players destroyed aliens and fewer remained, the game sped up. This programming limitation actually became one of the game’s most beloved features.

It was a long time coming – I heard they started working on it way back in 2008! – but it was definitely worth the wait. It was a huge success for Sony, and I was thrilled to be part of the audience that helped make it happen.

5 Best Doctor Who Games, Ranked

In 2010, the BBC released Doctor Who: The Adventure Games as a free download for people in the United Kingdom, with other countries gaining access later. Although five episodes were created, the BBC ultimately decided to focus on developing games for consoles instead, which led to the cancellation of Doctor Who: The Adventure Games.

Despite a slow start with critics, fans really enjoyed the game, praising its engaging story and fun gameplay, but it’s largely disappeared from availability.
