Sonic Superstars has an incredible presentation all around. It’s colorful and fun to look at, expanding upon the “Classic Sonic” look with fresh new characters like Trip and environments that immediately appeal to you. As is almost always the case, the music in Superstars is brilliant and catchy. A few...
A neat thing about the original visuals is that the robot enemies have a CGI-esque look that clashes with the sleek pixel art in an interesting way that lines up with the themes behind the characters themselves – the robots being modern replicas and the gargoyles and Vikings being natural...
Mortal Kombat 1 certainly looks gorgeous, with the characters being shockingly detailed and realistic. This makes the ridiculous finishers even more wild than ever, though it also makes the characters a bit less colorful and immediately recognizable. The designs of the cast are more mixed this time around, though ideally,...
One of the best aspects of Infinity Strash is the visuals, which almost perfectly emulate the art style of Koji Inada. The monsters certainly reflect the iconic Akira Toriyama style that Dragon Quest is so well-known for. The two styles work well together and the animated action scenes between the...
There’s some light puzzle solving as well, as Ada is able to see fingerprints and footprints using a device in her eye. This is mainly just used to track people and discover passcodes on keypads, but these little diversions spice things up a bit. There’s even a sequence where you...
The energetic music and incredibly colorful visuals add a sense of liveliness to the already frantic gameplay, making it easy to get lost in the game’s flow as you jettison your marble from here to there. It’s a sharp looking game with visuals that suit the straightforward but pleasant gameplay.
Another strong aspect of the game is the visuals, which are of remarkably high quality. The environments are diverse and interesting, the character designs are memorable, and the particle effects – as is often the case with Square Enix – are brilliant. I found the soundtrack to be overall less...
Amy being playable is always a welcome feature since she’s probably the most well-known and relevant Sonic character after the main trio and Shadow the Hedgehog. Playing as Amy is a blast here, as she has a distinct drop-dash mechanic that has her run while swinging her hammer, providing her...
Extreme Battles let you put all sorts of crazy conditions on a match, from randomized changes to features like Mega Man enemies (Mets, specifically) wandering around that can stun whoever they’re smacked into. The different combinations of these changes can make for very frantic and fun battles that I could...
It’s a shame, as the different planets you visit are indeed stunning. Each is distinct and has its own unique features that make revisiting for collectibles all the more appealing, while the abundance of fast-travel meditation spots makes collecting quite convenient. The music is beautiful too, adding to the atmosphere...
Speaking of voice acting, I was quite pleased with the voice work in Re-Boot Camp. Veronica Taylor perfectly embodies Andy’s naive but enthusiastic demeanor, and the rest of the cast is great at giving the over-the-top cast the lively energy and goofiness they deserve. The music receives similar treatment, being...
Visually, Resident Evil 4 Remake is as beautiful as it is disturbing. Characters like the chainsaw-wielding Dr. Salvador or the already-terrifying Regenerators are given new life without having their designs changed in any way that makes them unrecognizable. The iconic set pieces that Resident Evil 4 is known for look exactly...
