Why? Because these small green humanoid figures are trapped in little boxes, and disappear into little red pixels if you don’t.

Nothing is explained, and nothing has to be, as Resogun drops you into its setting and gives you a simple message, “Save the last humans.” And you will. Resogun does not specify time or location, but based on the aesthetic, it’s easy to draw some other-worldly science fiction. Few games can elicit fist pumps and joyful screams quite like Resogun can, as this is almost assuredly the best game you will find on the PlayStation 4 at launch. Resogun is a ferocious, mile-a-minute assault of twitch gameplay that sucks you in and seems to fast forward time, as you lose yourself by simply begging for one more go-round. Much like arcade games of old, watching someone take on Resogun’s challenge is almost as much fun as playing the game yourself. While the game is new, the feeling of Resogun is that same ol’ twin stick action the developer is so famous for.
#DEFEATING CERES RESOGUN SERIES#
While Super Stardust has been Housemarque’s most successful game, it is nice to see the developer leave the series behind and build a new arcade shoot ‘em up. Amidst the bombastic plot lines of the PlayStation 4 launch, filled with goblins, zombies, and rewritten histories, is Resogun, an arcade homage from the talented team at Housemarque, the same team behind the popular series Super Stardust on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. I was born long after the arcade-junkie was a staple of American culture, but even to someone who grew up with a console in their home, the idea of an arcade cabinet, greasy from the hands of a million different players, still feels like returning to my roots. Arcade shooters are video game comfort food.
