Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
56 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's a small addition, but enough to make repeat visits of the same few stages way less stale because each time you upgrade something, even if marginally, you feel it in gameplay.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
56 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The music is good, - really good sometimes, even; I really appreciated Mike Smith's contributions to the soundtrack, - and the graphics are... well, flashy and sometimes the colorful chaos is enjoyable to watch, I'll give it that.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack, an electronic pulse that mirrors the pace of battle, amplifies the intensity and keeps you locked into the experience.
