I don't know the way I see it some big companies decide to try it and every C-level that sees the article follows. Seems like that's more likely in my mind at least. There was a game about this for Amiga written in 1991.

I think this is what's happening. It's just follow-the-leader. "Apple and Google are doing it, it must be a good idea." I've had no official internal justification.

Lots of games released that year. Link Hall Of Light[0] for the game?
