Hotline Miami 2 launching on March 10

It's been a long wait. My most anticipated game currently. Preordered 2 special ed. copies from the Kickstarter figurine thing ages ago.

Niiiiiiice.

Another vote for this OT title!

Tell me about it. First OlliOlli2 and Helldivers (on same day!), then Hotline Miami 2, and then Bloodborne. And I'm not complaining! Plus, new season of Castle is starting on my cable network, so March is officially gonna be the best month of 2015 :D

Wasn't it announced that Shovel Knight was coming this month too?

You should wait until March to watch the new season of House of Cards just to add on to the month :p
 
YES.

Coincidentally, I just downloaded the first game on PS4 the other day after finishing The Order 1886. I'd already played the PS3 version a while back, but I felt like playing it again. :D

I don't think HM is a game that demands a big screen, and the excellent colors make up for it I think, but that's just me.

It's somewhat irrelevant with pixel games. If you have 4x the resolution, then the game just provides 4x the pixels. Upscaling is not an issue with pixel graphics.

Would've jumped on that collector's edition a long time ago had they include a Playstation code... Can't justify $60 for just the soundtrack.

Excited though!

ya, but then you can end up with blotchy shitty looking sprites. not always of course, some scale better than others. i can see his point, game probably looks fantastic on vita screen.

I think I have the first on Vita from PS+. I should check it out to see if I prefer it over the PC controls. I'm really tempted to get this on release but not sure PC or Vita.

Wait so does the regular game still come with loose audio files, or do I have to get the Special Edition to be able to dump the soundtrack in iTunes?

Now, can we please get a vinyl release of the first soundtrack as well.


Pleeeaaasseee.

Maybe Sun Araw is hard to license? Everyone else seems onboard with HM2's vinyl release, so why can't we get a HM1 release as well? :(
 
I had the impression that was said at some E3, when they showed a list of upcoming PS+ titles.

But probably I just misremember it.

I don't think it is because it doesn't come out at the start of the month. OlliOlli 2 and Helldivers do, though and are likely the + offerings for March. HM2 will probably go up at some point though.
 
I'm sure they will arrange that if you ask Fork.

Nah, I bought the CE when it was first announced and asked that exact question. They said the code is for Steam only (so, PC/Mac/Linux).

Still bought the CE and plan on gifting the steam code to a friend, keeping the vinyl, etc.. and buying the PS4 version. No regrets.

I replayed HM1 on an OLED Vita after PC and will play HM2 on PC, no question about it. The games have tons of little details that make it work great on big screens, don't want to miss anything. I also much prefer kb/m but that's even more subjective.

What's the best way to go about buying and playing the Vita version of this game in Australia? Make a European / NA PSN account?
