  • Summary: ONE OF US. ONE OF US. Still outnumbered, still outgunned. Enemies swirl around you in a storm of slow motion violence. Battle after battle, each fallen foe pushes you closer to the secrets hiding in the game and each secret gives you more powers to fight the System’s unending opposition.

    Like in 2016, you need to know just one thing about SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE - SUPERHOT really is super hot.

    Superhot: Mind Control Delete is simply an amazing title. Back in 2016, SUPERHOT really was the most innovative shooter we’d played in years, and four years on, the series is still as exciting as ever. With new levels, cool weapons, more creative settings and excellent sound design and music, there’s nothing quite like it. Superhot: Mind Control Delete is what fans of the original have been waiting for – and it more than delivers. Pick it up now; play more, win more and uncover the secrets waiting for you.

    By introducing a ton of exciting elements to the innovative formula, Superhot: Mind Control Delete elevates beyond the original title.

    Mind Control Delete is a unique puzzle game. It adds new levels, powerful enemies and sticks to the original gameplay.

    Superhot Mind Control Delete caters to and knowingly toys with the player’s thirst for something similar but different from what they already know and love.

    SUPERHOT: Mind Control Delete brings a change of pace from the original game, with more varied and unpredictably randomized challenges at the cost of the hand-crafted shooter-puzzle component of the first game. Levels are more repetitive, though, and difficulty feels unevenly balanced, resulting in a less satisfying experience.

    Mind Control Delete reforms Superhot’s signature slow motion power fantasy into the shape of a procedurally generated roguelike. It retains the shiny spartan aesthetic, the bellicose narrative, and the most satisfying first-person shooter gimmick of the last decade, but the twists and tweaks behind its operation don’t alter its basic complexion. Superhot felt euphoric when it was new. Mind Control Delete can only reheat that sensation of extravagance.

    Yes, this is a simple sequel. It is more of the same. But sometimes you don't need to change it up too much. How much do we change baseball orYes, this is a simple sequel. It is more of the same. But sometimes you don't need to change it up too much. How much do we change baseball or football every year? This formula still feels fresh, fun, and somehow equally as action packed and thrilling as it is strategic and puzzling. I loved it.… Expand

Enemies swirl around you in a storm of slow motion violence that moves at your pace. Battle after battle, each fallen foe pushes you closer to the secrets hiding in the game and each secret gives you more powers to fight the system’s defenses. A familiar reflection of what the original game managed to be, but a slew of new threats, demented twists and further reinforcing of smart tactics to compensate for such unpredictability result in Superhot: Mind Control Delete ending up a great addition to the Superhot experience. While the game feels like an extension of it's predecessor rather than a completely new experience that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The things that were great about the 1st game are present while taking the experience to a new level. The game remains unique and keeps from feeling stale throughout. There is a very unusual ending (no spoilers) and the game will not allow you to run through again for 8 hours after completing the experience. There are ways around the 8 hour wait if you look online but I won't go into them here. In summary SUPERHOT has another hit on their hands and this game was offered free to those that purchased the original game on their Xbox One consoles so that was quite a nice gesture and fans of the series can rejoice. If you haven't played the series I strongly suggest checking it out as all is not what t appears to be, you might just be in for quite a great experience as a newcomer to the franchise.… Expand

    It's original, challenging, fast paced, creepy and addicting.

    Only two reasons why it didn't score higher: lenght and lack of innovation.

    It's too similar to the original and it just seems endless, which might seem cool at first, but it bored me a little.

    Despite that, this game is great!    … Expand

L'adrénaline coule à flots alors qu'on expérimente ces nouvelles façons de tuer les ennemis, plus nombreux, plus retors et qui bénéficient de "bonus" eux aussi !

    Inutile de tourner autour du pot, c'est encore plus précis et plus diabolique qu'avant mais également beaucoup plus long... Si on pouvait trouver le Superhot précédent trop court, il n'en restait pas moins très satisfaisant par sa densité... or ici, le développeur a étalé, étiré au maximum tout ce qu'il pouvait, ce qui entraîne des redites et des répétitions jusqu'à connaître chaque niveau par coeur un peu trop vite.

    Par ailleurs, on est ici dans des "séries" et si on meurt au cours de l'une d'entre elles, on en recommence une autre générée aléatoirement, ce qui vers la fin du jeu devient carrément lourdingue ! en outre, de mauvais choix ont été faits comme (vers la fin encore ou du moins je le suppose) une sorte de "boss" qu'on ne peut pas tuer et on se demande ce que tout-à-coup cette grosse merde vient faire là ?!...

    Il paraît -enfin- que la toute fin ou plutôt la "méta-fin" est une plaisanterie de mauvais goût de programmeurs surmenés ! De toute manière, la répétition décidément trop répétitive de Mind control Delete a raison de l'addiction potentielle du jeu et de ses nouvelles mécaniques : il aurait fallu s'arrêter à temps mais le développeur n'a pas su le faire, quel dommage !

    Il a un peu gâché son propre jeu ou s'est pris à son propre jeu, emporté par de mauvais choix et une prétention un peu trop prétentieuse... Je ne conseillerai donc pas vraiment MCD mais le Superhot original bien plus équilibré en définitive... et bien meilleur à l'heure du bilan.    … Expand

Then again it's also entirely unfair that the game at the end forces you to wait 2 hours, leaving the game running all that time. Or that for some console Gamers, they're stuck with eight hours and a pite tially corrupted save. Couldn't leave this review on steam either. As soon as I heard about the ending, uninstalled and refunded. Game developers; We have lives. We pay electricity bills. We might want to play other games after yours. Or do other things with our computer or console. This attempt at being thought provoking is little more than a tone deaf troll.

    Worse is that you considered eight hours acceptable. Or 24. And never considered console releases would auto shutdown and corrupt saves. How utterly disconnected from reality must you be? How self absorbed does one have to be when clumsy metatextual **** matters more than remembering the needs of your customers and their systems? So, much as I was looking forward to playing the game, I cannot accept or support such a stupid move. Yes, I could skip the time in game, edit the save file, whatever. Shame your console customers can't. Thoughtless of you wasn't it to not even consider their needs. But frankly, for the disdain and contempt you show for your customers time, you don't deserve my custom, my time or my money.

    I will go and enjoy a game that at least respects that customers have lives outside their games. Maybe you should remember that next time rather than making your customers suffer an utterly pretentious and poorly thought out fart that you thought would be deep.    … Expand
