Bit.Trip may not be the most conceptually interesting game or have the most exhilarating gameplay, but you have to give credit where credit is due.

Awesome music and soundtrack

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The visuals are outstanding, and thankfully, they don’t cover the beats and get in your way this time.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Between the three versions of the game (PC, Wii, 3DS) I feel that if you have the right controller (the Xbox 360's circular D-Pad design does not go well with CORE), PC is the best because of the increased resolution.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
(though i think oddly enough the game comes with the ost in the folder without buying the ost, i could be mistaken though... i have it but it says i dont own the ost... im listening to it as im writing this soooo yeah... i have no idea whats happening with this ost thing lol. probably an oversight)
