Review: Superhot (PlayStation VR)

SUPERHOT VR brings the visceral action of SUPERHOT directly into your head and soul. And now also – directly into your PSVR.

Pros:

  • Crisp minimalist graphics.
  • 3.50GB Download size.
  • Platinum trophy.
  • Uses two Move controllers.
  • Opening and ongoing tutorial support.
  • The game only moves when you do causing a lot of slow motion action!
  • Short levels.
  • Easy controls.
  • Can shoot, Punch and throw items at enemies.
  • Really enjoyable.
  • Atmospheric and engaging.
  • Clever level design.
  • Satisfying combat.
  • Almost puzzle like in its execution. You need to remember where your threats are, The order you need to take them out.
  • The game feels really nice with the whole look everywhere.
  • Ramps up the awesome in VR.
  • Story is good.
  • Decent soundtrack.

Cons:

  • Difficulty spikes.
  • You have to play a certain amount of a level in order to hit a checkpoint otherwise you are repeating large sections.
  • Not as generous with the options like the base game. No fancy menu layouts or share functionality.

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
