Step into the murderous mind of several distinct characters - each with their own motivations and methods of execution -- as storylines intersect and reality slips away into a haze of neon and carnage. Blistering combat, an unmistakable visual style, and a powerfully intense soundtrack will once again push you to the limit and questioning your own thirst for blood.… Expand

    This is not merely a sequel worth playing, it’s one worth consuming again and again until its every secret has been revealed.

    In almost every way, Hotline Miami 2 is a marked improvement on an already tremendous formula. This is a game that had me pumping my fists and laughing with joy throughout my time with it, and I was left despondent by the time it drew to a close.

    Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is a great sequel. It innovates just enough to feel fresh but, unfortunately, takes a bit of player freedom away through its fixed characters.

    Hotline Miami 2 is indeed a fun and exciting action spectacle, but also a little disappointing successor of a great game.

    It’s not that I regret those couple of hours I spent with Wrong Number, but for every advantage there’s a drawback, for every ‘I had fun’ there’s a ‘but’ and for every ‘wow!’ there’s a ‘meh’. [05/2015, p.50]

    Not as good as the original, Hotline Miami 2 delivers a flawed dose of the high speed ultra violence that's fun but not essential.

    The subtitle of Hotline Miami 2 should read "Wrong Decade."

    In comparison to the first one, everything has been improved. More likeable characters (which also means more fluid and different gameplay), and supremely tight controls and game feel.

Теперь у нас несколько персонажей, со своими характерами, историей и финалом. Не понимаю что за недалёкие люди ставят оценку ниже, чем первой части, когда она наоборот выросла, Теперь, как я уже и сказал, есть крутой сюжет, тоесть реально, он неплохой. Мне было даже пофиг уже как-то на сам геймлпей, который никак не изменился со времён первой части. Проходил уровень за уровнем, только чтобы узнать что там дальше. Молодцы.… Expand

The music is a little derivative. The graphics aren't too bad. The only way to play it is to lure enemys into a hall one at a time. The AI seems to be the same and the only thing keeping you in the game is how lucky you are or how fast you fire back. The weapons do not have a very good spread to make it fun. The content of the game is kinda gross. I can't think of a reason to buy it unless you want to test your reflexes. Its a flashy package that needs more variety. They could have taken many directions to make it more fun for the player but did not.… Expand
