Google has purchased Green Throttle Games

4.5
Green Throttle Games closed near the end of 2013 but Google has not released that they have purchased the "parts and labor" portion of the developer. This developer was responsible for development of the Atlas controller and Arena app for Android, they enable any Android device to convert itself to a game console when connected to any HDTV. While two of the co-founders of Green Throttle Games are confirmed to be making the jump to Google, notable co-founder Charles Huang may have not opted to go forward personally with Google but it is clear he will retain his rights over the developer's business.

Why would they purchase this?

TYBGPosted:

The controller doesn't look so appealing and I don't know why Google would even be interested with GTG

Never heard of GTG which makes me wonder why Google purchased the parts and labor portion of it. Android games on an HDTV sounds cool, but what would Google need that for?
