Even  after being completed once, Machinarium begs to be explored a few more  times. Keeping things in perspective, for an independent team of seven,  Machinarium is a highly polished and professional offering. One can  practically feel the pride and dedication that went in to creating this  title, and you can&#8217;t put a rating on that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Developer Jakub Dvorsk&yacute; <a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/ps3\/10911-Machinarium-coming-PSN.html\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Machinarium coming to PSN\">previously revealed<\/a> that the title should be appearing on PSN sometime in 2011. There probably won&rsquo;t be an XBLA version, as Dvorsk&yacute; explained &ldquo;We were already refused by Microsoft to bring the game to Xbox. They weren&rsquo;t interested because the game was already released for Mac and Windows, and Microsoft demanded it as part of an exclusivity deal. We&rsquo;re not interested in Microsoft anymore.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pocketgamer.co.uk\/r\/iPad\/Machinarium\/news.asp?c=31795\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Pocket Gamer\">Pocket Gamer<\/a>, Machinarium will now be heading to the iPad. &ldquo;It&#8217;s almost finished, but we still need to fix a lot of small bugs and test it properly. It should be ready during the next month&#8230;hopefully,&rdquo; said Dvorsk&yacute;.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php\/16002-Machinarium-on-iPad-soon\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Machinarium available on iPad soon\"><strong>Machinarium available on iPad soon<\/strong><\/a> &lt;&lt; Comments and views<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\">Via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/articles\/2011-07-25-machinarium-coming-to-ipad-this-year\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Eurogamer\">Eurogamer<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"600\" height=\"371\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/uwZBdWRSBRs?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;rel=0\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"600\" height=\"371\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/uwZBdWRSBRs?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;rel=0\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indie puzzle-adventure machinarium is heading to iPad, with a PSN version still in the works<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":157,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13152","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13152","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/157"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13152"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13152\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13152"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
