Nestled next to all those virtual console games, bit.trip has the curious effect of not merely retracing steps to join them, but exposing what many of them lost along the way as well. It's all about control, taking you back to the relentless, reflex intensive hand-eye coordination that is at the foundation of a videogame. There's every reason to believe that the full series will represent a vital thesis on the controls within gaming and the inherent importance of keeping that concern primary within game design.
The price of each installment is a steal at 600 Wii Points, and that only helps to sweeten the deal.
Hardcore Gamer: If you love the Bit.Trip games, but haven't yet been able to get their OSTs, then the newest Game Music bundle is for you. $1 or more gets you the OSTs for Bit.Trip Beat, Bit.Trip Runner, Bit.Trip Core, Bit.Trip Fate, Bit.Trip Void, and Bit.Trip Flux.
Set for release later this month, Rising Star Games’ BIT.TRIP compendium will be available for both Wii and Nintendo 3DS. Electronic Theatre recently had the opportunity to get hands-on with the former, BIT.TRIP Complete, and while it doesn’t promise to add anything new to the series, delivering the short bursts of adrenaline rush gameplay for which BIT.TRIP is famous in one all-encompassing package should be enough to grab the attention of any innovation-hungry Wii gamer.
Acclaimed videogames publisher Rising Star Games has today announced the signing of two new Gaijin Games titles, BIT.TRIP COMPLETE and BIT.TRIP SAGA. Both BIT.TRIP COMPLETE and BIT.TRIP SAGA offer an amazing collection of six of the very best celebrated indie BIT.TRIP videogames, and will be available to buy in Q1, 2012, on Wii and Nintendo 3DS respectively.
