Yes, Sir, I'll Take Some More Hotline Miami

Dennaton Games is moving quickly with Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, but given how weird and fun the first game was, that's a-okay.

I suck at playing Miami Hotline, though I have gotten good enough to get 2/3's through. But that's okay...I gots the soundtrack. My Radio Station was doing a special on video game music and I called them up over this. The real oddity is if they knew about it Miami Hotlines' music, they'd play it through...About the game, I would not know to say.

But the music would get a pass. And they'd recognize Miami Hotlines 80's motif without being told, are termed eclectic by I-tunes radio(also a signal station 89.7- Los Altos Hills)

They'd remember the 80's...

Hotline Miami is a hell of a drug.

I'm sold.

"Video games are becoming overly violent just for the sake of being violent." - Giant Bomb, Q1 2012.

"Hotline Miami is a fantastic game, the violence is brutal and we love it." - Giant Bomb, Q3 2012.

Going to assume you never played the game. Hotline Miami and Spec Ops: The Line have pretty much the same story.

Same general message, but they tell and express it in different ways.

Hotline Miami is pretty great, minus a few technical hiccups. I am pumped beyond reason for more chicken masks and 50 Blessings flyers.

I wonder if the soundtrack can match the quality of the first game.

Hotline Miami was alright. I hate to say it, but after I got caught the tenth time on that moronic hospital level, I don't think I despised a single game more last year than I despised that game in that moment. It went from awesome to loathsome. Such a poor decision to put that and the SWAT sequences in there. The entire rest of the game (boring boss fights aside) was pretty fucking great.

Oh god yes.

This is now the only game I'm looking forward to, but I'm happy for them to take as long as they like to make it, as long as the music in this one is just as good at the first.

I just recently got into Hotline Miami thanks to the last Humble Bundle. Cool to see that it's getting a sequel.

@headphonehalo: Those games didn't get attention because they were on consoles, they got attention because they were innovative and good.
