NiGHTS... uh-oh

Sega vuelve a cargarse a uno de sus clásicos y esta vez se trata de NiGHTS.. eso ya son palabras mayores! Los remakes a manos de compañías occidentales que han sacado (como Sega Rally, Afterburner. etc) han sido un fiasco y ahora resulta que ni sus equipos internos (bueno, hablamos de los incompetentes de Sonic Team USA) pueden hacer justicia a NiGHTS. Visto el panorama espero que JAMÁS hagan Shenmue 3 o un nuevo PD. Triste, triste...

De IGN:

6.5 Presentation
Some impressive CG work is mixed with odd pacing, a somewhat problematic camera, but solid, classic Nights art style. A decent story overall, if not a bit overdramatic at times.

7.5 Graphics
Texture work is a bit weak, but the overall modeling and animations are pretty commendable. Effects add a ton to the experience, as does the trippy style.

8.0 Sound
The VO work is strong throughout, and some of the music is very, very captivating, despite a few odd tracks thrown in during the game's finale.

6.0 Gameplay
Extremely stiff, often feeling like first-pass control. Platforming is a chore, and the classic flight control feels a bit sluggish. Pass on the IR mode right away.

6.0 Lasting Appeal
The game is only a few hours long, but the race multiplayer and online adds a bit to the experience. A lack of mid-level saving and checkpoints will frustrate younger gamers though.

6.5
Passable OVERALL

(out of 10 / not an average)


La media global es un poco mejor (ni caso a los fanboys de Nintendo Power).

Había pedido la edición Segadirect y creo que el juego se quedará precintado... le tengo mucho más ganas a la reedición en PS2.
