Thank you, NotLiquid! You've definitely kept a close eye on the game. Appreciate the info.
No, you won't.
No, since you can't change regions without using your US account on the PSP2.
curses guess I'll have to wait a bit longer then.

We haven't had confirmation of what soundtrack kick starter backers are getting right? Its doing my head in, even though I'm getting the vinyls, its all a bit of a kerfuffle.
Nope.
The embargo is AFTER the game is released?
Why aren't more people talking about this
Yea that guy is nuts. It's so bad on Vita you have to use lock on to aim because the sticks suck and touch screen to look farther. By far the worst version.
PC master race checking in. When is GMG sending out our codes D:
Thanks, guess i'll just be playing the waiting game with psn then.

Console versions have lock on? That seems almost like cheating lol
Using lock on to aim makes the game much better.

PC has lock on as well (middle mouse), but it's not necessary because the mouse is so precise. Still a useful tool for certain situations.
I loved it on Vita, to each his own. Touch to lock on was excellent.

Wow, never knew that.
It's only bad when Ubisoft does it?
It would annoy me a lot more if there were pre-order exclusives but it's still pretty shit to have a 10% pre-order discount that goes away the second reviews are live.

Just beat and replayed the first Hotline Miami, I'm all in on this one. Only one more day!! Hopefully the story expands from the first one

I imagine a few reasons:
- Game is not expensive so even if it's bad you won't feel guilty having spent a lot of money on it
- We know the OST is already amazing (and probably worth it just for that)
- I doubt it would be difficult to screw up the gameplay. At worst the story won't be as good as the first
Dunno about that. I'm really struggling with the guns/aiming at multiple people with them.
I'm using a mouse so I can aim for myself. Like a man.
Lock-on is seriously so lame. Do you use it in Rockstar games too?

The general critical consensus is that the Vita version was the best version of the game. Having played PC and Vita, I'm prone to agree.
Waiting for the Vita release on Wednesday in Europe. I've been waiting on this for a long time!
Can I get some proof to back up that statement? I'm trying to figure out how the version with the worst controls is the best.
I dunno man. Grab the pistol off someone, five of them rush me. I can take three out but apparently a point blank shot misses one and they nail me. Drives me fucking crazy.
Vita is the only way I played (and finished) it. Loved it.

I don't have any evidence either way other than personal experience. Having cleared it on PC/vita/PS4(in that order) I would say the vita is the clear winner. The different controls make both versions worth playing.
P.S. I always check to make sure auto-aim is off on game start up and I would never play a rockstar game with lock on enabled
Opinions and preferences are,well,opinions and preferences. I played the game first on PC, then on PS3 and then on Vita. I'd choose the Vita version everyday. And only used the lock-on exactly once( on the Uzi Boss).

So my vinyl box set is trying to be delivered... to a currently spring-break-closed college.
FedEx has failed delivery twice. Anybody know how to let them know to deliver it next Monday without completely screwing up everything?

I played it on pc, ps4 and Vita and by far found it the easiest to control on vita. Didn't use lock on though.

oh man, so good. Can't listen to too much, need it in-game.
No problem. It's more of a divided opinion than I realised, but it didn't take long to find examples.

Some do say the analogue sticks in all of the console versions aren't as good as the PC, but the Vita is the best of them.
Gamespot (Danny O'Dwyer):
Though looking in the comments there show lots of users preferring the Vita version too.

I beat it on Vita and PC and preferred Vita due to OLED and a quick swipe of the thumb to look farther was all I ever needed.
I thought lock on was useless outside of the sparse boss battles, though, so what do I know.

That says "Unofficial Soundtrack" though and is more than a year old.

The mouse controls don't add too much to hotline miami; the game uses a twin stick shooter control scheme. as long as you can rotate quickly (which you definitely can with the vita sticks) you are well equipped to deal with what the game throws at you.
