Why did they lower pc graphics to ps3 standards?

Lord_Snoodles 12 pts

Gamespot! More Danny, more of the time. If we're going to get like only 12 episodes of Mount Stupid, we should be getting more O'Dwyer video reviews.

Anything thal looks like GTA shall receive high ratings (This one looks like first GTA games)

AcidThunder 12 pts

 Payasoplas did you even watch the review its nothing like GTA

Lord_Snoodles 12 pts

 AcidThunder  Payasoplas Saying it's nothing like GTA is sillier than saying it's just like GTA. It does indeed look a lot like early GTA games. Good enough for me. 

Frankenstrat247 121 pts

 Payasoplas Gee, maybe it's just a good game.

Review Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams!

Renoo27 95 pts

Looks like a lot of fun, but astronomically tasteless. Think I'll be passing on this one.

Coren_Larken 86 pts

 Renoo27 With as much as I've read and heard the editors being upset with pointless, over-the-top violence, I'm surprised at the rating. Although, I'm sure it's a good game, I'll be passing as well.

You've got a good point there, there have been complaints lately from journalists about violence in video games. Still, this Danny's review. He's pretty open-minded.

Frankenstrat247 121 pts

 Coren_Larken  Renoo27 There's definitely a point to the violence that I'm not sure the review covered.  Ever play Spec Ops: The Line?  It's kind of like that.

Renoo27 95 pts

 Frankenstrat247  Coren_Larken

Spec Ops, really? That game's pretty fricking deep. Ahh... loved that game. The violence in that does indeed help get it's message across. But are you saying Hotline Miami has some deep meaning?

"and like most cocaine-fuelled rampages, it's short-lived...but enjoyable,"

 

LOL!!!! But no xbox controller support?

I love that pure gameplay moment after the review! It just shows off the game, and you look at it with all that you have learned through the review so it gives you a few seconds to fully soak in what kind of game it is. All reviewers should do this!

SunicoXD 13 pts

It's like a bloodier version of Monaco: WYIM that shown in Gamespot's Secret Code several months ago.

PostNothing 7 pts

This game reminds me of the film Drive, it kind of has the same vibe. Great review Danny -- waiting for more! 

Master_Bassist 9 pts

 PostNothing Couldn't agree more. I said the same thing regarding the launch trailer. Something about the ultraviolence and 80's synth heavy soundtrack. Good review as well Danny. Can't wait to play this.

mehrdad19872010 62 pts

I don't know why but my game seems to be running at half speed. Anyone knows why this happens? My computer doesn't have the best graphics card but I don't think that's the cause.

overheating probably try to install a temp monitor cpu and gpu.

Man this game takes me back to the days of klick n play. Where me and my friends made games similar to this style. So this really takes me back to my childhood and getting to replay a much more complex version of the game we tried making.

 Wula_ I used to live and breathe Klik & Play. Everything I made was total balls, though.

Is it just me or has it been a fucking awesome year of indie games?

splinter10 241 pts

Haaaaaaaaaah! This game looks fun as fuck. Loving the style and visuals. The 80's Miami Vice theme. That electric pink. Just reminds me of cocaine.

BrunoBRS 120 pts

didn't know you wrote reviews, danny.

Just want to say what an incredible game. I have all the most recent games installed on my PC; Skyrim, borderlands 2, dishonored, torchlight ii, diabli iii. Since I bought 'Hotline Miami' I just can't stop playing it .. all the other games (with exception to torchlight ii) have fallen off my radar. This game is abo????ely INSANE. SO AWESOME ON SO MANY LEVELS. The game design, the feel of the engine, the music, the atmosphere, the story, the control mechanics, the difficulty .. its a perfect game guys. Well done developers .. I didn't buy the game originally, then I played it and then immedietly bought the game on steam. 10/10 !! I really really wish you guys build this game up more .. add for instance:- Multi player [somehow]- new stories and missions- dlc ..- new weapons .. - maybe a mode where you deal with oncomming endles amounts of enemies Anyway, thanks once again guys for rewarding PC Gamers with an incredible title. Thats all I have to say .. and remember guys, don't forget to wear a mask.

I own Hotline Miami via GOG. Damn good stealth action game, with a fucked up 1980s slasher flick vibe. Very psychological. It plays like Alien Shooter with mouse & keyboard, which ain't bad, but gamepad support would've been better.

 dannyodwyer Loving the psychedelic vibes.
