The editors liked
Slow-motion shooting just as enthralling as the original Superhot demo
Gets in and gets out before the gimmick gets too stale
Mesmerizing
Addictive action
Unique mechanics
Creative presentation
Perhaps one of the coolest gameplay mechanics for a first person shooter that I've experienced in a long time combined with one of the most surprisingly awesome storymode campaigns I've had the pleasure of completing in at least as long.
Superhot has a brilliant visual aesthetic which combines perfectly with the core gameplay feature
Which is used to brilliant effect both in game and after
When creating some of the best footage you're likely to find from a game
Excellent gameplay twist
Deviously dark narrative
Packed with curious oddities
Fantastic concept and execution
Neat little story
Original and refreshing
Unique
Exciting
Stylish
Top-notch style and presentation
Excellent use of a unique time mechanic
The editors didn't like
Hitboxing can feel off at times
Needs a bit more to flesh out its two hour run
Very short campaign
Simple
Unimpressive visuals
It is very addicting. I could complain that the story mode is too short
But really it is just as long as it needed to be
I'm just greedy for more
The story behind Superhot is interesting
Though at times it takes away by forcing you into events that actively stall the game
there wasn't much to dislike other than the overuse of the name being repeated, but maybe it's just me. I had zero performance issues running Superhot on my Windows 10/i7 920 @2.67GHz/8GB of ram/Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 rig. The graphics aren't demanding...
Abstract: Some games only need a single good idea to work. For example: Superhot, a punishing first-person shooter in which time only moves when you move. It's a single, good idea. And it works. Each of Superhot's twenty-odd levels recreates an archetypal action-m...
Superhot relies heavily on its gameplay, which just happens to be the only part of the experience that is engaging. The rest is a bit uninspired, but if you don't need impressive visuals or a deep narrative, Superhot earns a recommendation...

Abstract: Believe it or not, shooters aren't really about shooting people. Oh sure, plenty of shooting happens throughout the course of a standard shooter, but, much to the dismay and chagrin of angry parents everywhere, games aren't designed to be murder simulator...
Abstract: If I followed the game's instructions, I'd tell you simply that this was one the most innovative shooters I've ever played. I won't be telling you why I'm supposed to say that, or even how the game goes about telling me to say that, but I feel compelled t...

Is there enough here? I think so. Superhot is a gimmick game, and it was always going to be a gimmick game. I never expected otherwise. But as far as one-trick ponies go this one is pretty stellar, doing its damnedest to make you feel like the consumm...
Abstract: Blurring the lines between cautious strategy and unbridled mayhem, Superhot is the FPS in which time moves only when you move. No regenerating health bars. No conveniently placed ammo drops. It's just you, outnumbered and outgunned, grabbing the weapons o...
