IGN - After debuting on the PS Vita months ago, Zen Studios’ kung fu-themed rhythm fighter KickBeat has finally landed on Steam. The discrete, one-song-at-a-time setup arguably makes a lot more sense on Sony’s portable system, but the crisp, colorful visuals pop more than ever on a larger monitor. The rest of the game’s core elements remain largely intact, which means the flashy fighting visuals still aren’t quite enough to compensate for the limited content and demanding yet basic gameplay.
SteamFirst: When it comes to music games, I can be overly forgiving. I am the first to admit that I spent more time than would be considered healthy playing the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises, long after their relevance has subsided. Of course, considering that they are both making a comeback this year, I may have been a hipster douche in claiming that I liked something after it was cool and before it was cool again.
