It’s been over a decade since gamers last got a proper console title centered on the fedora-wearing, whip-cracking hero with 2009 bringing players two different games in the form of Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues, Traveller’s Tales follow-up to their 2008 Lego adaptation of the film franchise that added in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and Artificial Mind and Movement’s Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings. The latter title was originally designed and developed for seventh-gen consoles PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Nintendo DS, Nintendo Wii and PlayStation Portable, but the development team shifted their plans early into development to cancelling the former two and instead developing the game for the PlayStation 2 and scrapping an Xbox release altogether. Upon its release, the game received very mixed reviews.
