That’s not to imply last-gen Resogun is unplayable-far from it-but it’s also not as quality an experience as it would’ve been had the game been made for the PS3 and Vita in the first place. The PS3 version fares much better than its handheld smaller brother, but in any case, if you’re still holding out on a PS4, you won’t exactly feel like next-gen has come to you. The 30 FPS framerate of the new ports is certainly consistent, but feels choppy compared to the 60 FPS original, particularly on the Playstation Vita, which also suffers from menus that feel more than a little blurry running in a sub-HD resolution. That’s sort of descriptive of the entire experience: the core gameplay has been faithfully maintained, but clearly at a cost. Well, the team at Housemarque has done a decent job maintaining this effect on the much lower-powered PS3 and Playstation Vita, reducing the number of particles and causing them to simply fly off-screen instead of collect along the floor, but to anyone familiar with the original implementation of the game, Resogun on these platforms might feel just a tiny bit empty. While the effect may not add anything to Resogun’s actual gameplay, it just wouldn’t feel like Resogun without them. Pixel-like voxel shards fly off enemies in spades as you defeat them, bouncing around on other objects in the game before settling in somewhere along the floor and piling up over the duration of a single mission. Resogun on the PS4 was all about HD graphics, particles, and particle physics. But is a scaled-back next-gen game really worth your time and hard disk space, or your $15 if you’re a complete newcomer to the title? Even better, it’s a participant in Sony’s cross-buy program too, meaning if you already own the game on the Playstation 4, you already own the new PS3 and Vita versions too, available to download at your convenience. But as of December 23, that’s exactly what’s happened with Resogun, the flashy arcade shoot ‘em up from Finnish indie developer studio Housemarque. What isn’t so normal is for one of these kinds of games to much later be backported to the previous generation, and even rarer is seeing a handheld even get in on the action.
