Super Stardust HD Classic Review

With the PSN store supposedly coming back online this next week, GamerGaia.com is doing a slew of retro reviews for the five games that we get to choose from. First up is Super Stardust HD:

PSN games are generally hit or miss, but with a formula that dates back to the beginning of gaming itself, you can’t go wrong. Can you?

I still want to play this game, gonna pick it up for free when the store is back online. : D

BYE4723d ago

Free is exactly how much this game is worth ;)

beavis4play4723d ago

Ceekay - you can't be serious? for what it does (oldschool arcade action) it gets a 10 from me. i couldn't begin to guess how many hours i've played that game.

-Alpha4723d ago (Edited 4723d ago )

Don't forget to get the DLC.

It's a bit overpriced, but there is a bundle price, which is a pretty good deal

It's my favorite PSN game. It's one of those games you just boot up when there's nothing you feel like playing

I'm really hopeful for a sequel

rob60214723d ago

Yea no kidding where is the sequel? Considering Dead nation didn't do so hot - hopefully they'll be prodded into making one.

When I first got my PS3 back in early '07 this was the possibly the best looking game on PS3, they even upped the graphics with the 3D patch last year to full 1080p.

tomragan4723d ago

It's between this and Little Big Planet for me.

Bell Boy4723d ago (Edited 4723d ago )

LittleBigPlanet is the better option imo, it is a full retail game with tons of content..

Don't get me wrong I own both myself and Super Stardust is a teriffic PSN

If like platform games then LittleBigPlanet is hard to beat..you don't need to build levels to enjoy this masterpiece

rmoar4723d ago

I'd have to agree, the easy and obvious choice is LittleBigPlanet. LBP is one of the top PS3 games out there, I don't know if we can say that about Super Stardust, at least not yet.

GrandTheftZamboni4723d ago

If you have a 3D TV, you should get Super Stardust. It looks amazing in 3D!

OllieBoy4723d ago

Great game, can't believe it's been out 4 years now.

BLAKHOODe4723d ago

I'm interested, but it's a $10 PSN game. When the store comes back online, I want to get the best value I can.. InFamous and Wipeout. I might pay the $10 and pick this up later if I can't grab it for free too on my other PSN accounts.

honestpizza4723d ago

Too bad I own LBP and inFamous already.

jmobley4723d ago

could always get your friend to download it and share accounts

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

FTLmaster1107d 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 Butt1106d ago

Thanks. Downloaded it and will be playing it shortly.

Pre-ordered Returnal too.

P_Bomb1107d ago

Loved Alienation. Good co-op!

Knushwood Butt1106d ago (Edited 1106d ago )

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

ArchangelMike1104d ago

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

Housemarque licenses Unreal Engine 4 for a new and unannounced title

Finland’s longest standing game development studio, Housemarque, today announced that it is licensing Unreal Engine 4 and moving away from its own in-house technology for future projects, including a soon-to-be-announced title.

TheOttomatic912334d ago

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

arkard2334d ago

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

TGG_overlord2334d ago

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

BrianOBlivion2334d 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.

TGG_overlord2334d 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."

- 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...

Einhander19712333d ago (Edited 2333d ago )

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

Atticus_finch2333d ago

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