Super Stardust HD 3D Hands-On Preview at CheatCC

CheatCC says, "It's clear that 3D games are still in their infancy. Super Stardust HD looked amazing, but didn't add any depth-perceptive 3D mechanics to its core design, for example. However, for a game design relative to popcorn thrills, the visual really did the trick. It will be interesting to see exactly how developers start utilizing 3D in future games-particularly since not every game, at least for the PS3, will have the necessary processing resources to render twice as many frames per second as normal-but for just a simple retroactive visual improvement, Housemarque has really taken a great first step."

I plan to snag Stardust VR soon. It is on PSN sale for cheap.

FTLmaster1853d ago

Do it! It’s a seriously addictive experience. Housemarque is the master of modern arcade classic gameplay. Curious to see how Returnal turns out tbh.

Knushwood Butt1853d ago

Thanks. Downloaded it and will be playing it shortly.

Pre-ordered Returnal too.

P_Bomb1853d ago

Loved Alienation. Good co-op!

Knushwood Butt1853d ago (Edited 1853d ago )

Yep, had a lot of fun playing it with my kids. Although they always fight over the drops.

Dead Nation is a classic, Definately one of their best games.

Damn it sucks they won't be doing any SP games anymore.

arkard3080d ago

Agreed, I found d their games to be fun and enjoyable... To bad I seem to be the minority.

TGG_overlord3080d ago

Well, I haven't played all of their games, but "Nex Machina" is pretty darn cool imo.

BrianOBlivion3080d ago

I didn't read that. I've read that while they are planning to expand into multiplayer, the only thing they've decided to give up on is the top-down arcade shooter style of games because the last couple have sold in decreasing amounts.
Too bad for me as I've enjoyed most of their games. Now I feel bad that I didn't buy Matterfall but I just didn't like the addition of platforming into the mix.
I haven't read anywhere that those MP games wouldn't include SP.

- Ah, now I got what @TheOttomatic91 meant with "Damn it sucks they won't be doing any SP games anymore.". Well, to be fair, "Matterfall" isn't exactly one of their better titles...

Einhander19713079d ago (Edited 3079d ago )

Um don't expect anything good from these guys anymore.

Atticus_finch3079d ago

IDK what to expect. Me and my GF love HM hopefully they keep making couch coop games.
