Q*Bert: Rebooted is a two-sided coin that offers up both the good and the bad. It provides a picture perfect port of the arcade classic that plays great and is a total joy. But it's also hampered with a modern re-make that is plagued with horribly frustrating controls and some design choices that are less than admirable. Old school players will get a kick out of reliving this classic, but don't expect the new stuff to bring anything but a feeling of irritation.
In this months installment of jamming the PS+ IGC, Blair tackles Q*Bert rebooted.
He hopes to have saved you some time here, as it get's rough.
Carl Williams writes, "The classic Q Bert game has been eyed by a lot of gamers over the years as either demon spawn or a cool game. Which side of the fence you fall on depends on the aggravating diagonal control scheme. Okay, you could fall on either side of the fence for another reason but I wager the controls are up there. Now owners of the NVIDIA Shield can enjoy the infuriating entertainment of Q Bert."
Neil writes "We're big fans of the games that LOOT Interactive drop, and so the arrival of a new four game mega bundle on Xbox One gets us a little bit excited."
Always had a soft spot for Q*Bert but looks like this is something to skip.
