Super Stardust HD Solo Review by IGN

IGN writes: "If you're as big a fan of the original Super Stardust HD and you're itching for more content, this download is an absolute must. If you liked the game and you don't mind parting with five dollars, it certainly adds a fair amount of content. I would even go so far as to say that gamers completely unversed in Stardust should buy the original and then pick up this pack if they want more. But, I would have been infinitely more pleased had new planets, more music and perhaps online co-op been included in this pack. But I image many of those features will show up if Housemarque decides to develop a Multi pack next time. Only time will tell."

Now can't wait for the online multiplay which should be out soon.

blusoops5901d ago

add on! The only thing it needs now is online co-op!

I am so rubbish at this game. i can never get past the first planet. I bought the add-on anyway ( what was I thinking ?) and am addicted at beating my 'endless' high score.

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

FTLmaster1156d 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 Butt1156d ago

Thanks. Downloaded it and will be playing it shortly.

Pre-ordered Returnal too.

P_Bomb1156d ago

Loved Alienation. Good co-op!

Knushwood Butt1156d ago (Edited 1156d ago )

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

ArchangelMike1153d ago

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

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

arkard2383d ago

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

TGG_overlord2383d ago

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

BrianOBlivion2383d 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.

"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."

- 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...

Einhander19712382d ago (Edited 2382d ago )

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

Atticus_finch2382d ago

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