Gameboyz Review: Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3

GB reports:

''Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3's graphics are quite nice considering this is a DLC game with a size limitation. The game is vividly coloured throughout, with bright easy to see characters and cool animations. While the game isn't overly detailed, it reminds me of a slick cartoon with some Contra visuals mixed in. The game is presented in full high definition and wide screen which is nice to see. I find it disappointing to see updated games get the shaft by keeping the original size from the arcade, but keep mind that Commando 3 is not a direct arcade port, but more of a re-imagining of an arcade favorite.

I think the game's visuals and art direction are actually quite unique. Aside from the cartoon quality character design, the environmental detail and visual effects look good. Everything from water ripples to explosions look like they belong on a next-generation console and that's definitely a good thing. Some gamers may be a bit disappointed at the overall look of the game, but beauty is really in the eye of the beholder.

Another positive is the fairly consistent framerate. The game only bogs down in small increments when the action gets out of hand, and sometimes this is noticeable while playing online. But in the end it does not make this game unplayable, it is just more of an annoyance.''
