I had my greasy fingers all over Halfbrick's upcoming Jetpack Joyride in our hands-on preview last week, and one thing I neglected to mention something that got my goat playing over the weekend: The game itself starts in a really weird way. There's an explosion, and suddenly you're flying through this underground lair. Well, Halfbrick's trailer for the game that was released today fills in any potential plot holes by showing what happens just before:

I suppose the only question that remains now is where does Jetpack Joyride land in the life of Barry Steakfries? Presumably he just got the machine gun jetpack now, making Monster Dash a sequel of sorts? Maybe? But then where does Age of Zombies fit in? A better question is, what is wrong with me that I think about these things?!

Jetpack Joyride will be out this Thursday, and you better believe we'll have a review. Spoilers: It's great.
