    The Xbox One version feels just as good as on the other platformers with no noticeable issues of concern in comparison. If there are still players that haven’t had a chance to check out Saturday Morning RPG, for the price and quality, this can’t be beat.

    Despite all its faults, Saturday Morning RPG is a joy to play and while it's not the longest experience, it should keep you entertained for each moment that you play. You’ll love it for the references, then for the strategy. If not that, then for the ace combat. If you are looking for a game that drips 80s charm, then this is it.

    Saturday Morning RPG's welcome nostalgia trip to the eighties provides five fun episodes and two bonus modes for its players to sink their teeth into. Although its combat eventually grows tiresome and its quests verge on lackluster, the well-written dialogue, outstanding music, constant infusions of humor, and nonstop pop culture nods keep it from feeling like it overstays its welcome.

    At one point above I described battles as a "love story to the past,” and that statement is at the core of all that Saturday Morning RPG is.

    There are often laugh out loud moments in the game but these moments punctuated the tedium that defined most of the game.

    Growing up as a kid in the 80's, there was nothing about this game that really hit me as making the game what it pitches itself to be. ItGrowing up as a kid in the 80's, there was nothing about this game that really hit me as making the game what it pitches itself to be. It tries extremely hard to be funny and often falls flat. The game was short and I saw absolutely no replay value in it. I also encountered several bugs that crashed the game. One would think that with the developer giving their work a price increase for a console version of a game several years old that those would have been ironed out. I just can't recommend this game as is. Maybe during a steep price cut, but not in it's current state and price.… Expand
