It’s a sad day today, given the closure of Tango Gameworks, producers of the perfectly 9/10 excellent Hi-Fi Rush. That being said, an opportunity exists for PC players to score it in a bundle (which most notably includes Yakuza: Like A Dragon) for posterity and a pittance. Of all the recent dev shedding that’s been going on, this one feels especially senseless. Do not sleep on this surprise gem of a game, which is also going for 30% off on PS Store.
In retro news, I’m celebrating the 22nd birthday of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. To be honest, I recall way less of MGS2’s ultra-serious musings about nuclear arms proliferation than I do its cool (and often silly) easter eggs that tickled my brain. Stuff like the projector trick, ninja box takedowns, and making Otacon lose it over my unique brand of photojournalism. Stumbling across these myself, in those (relatively) pre-Internet days, was pure magic. Nobody made ’em like Kojima.

As many of you know, I’ve been tracking the slow decline of this RRP for a while now. We are now in full striking distance of the 200 buck cut off point that will make me swoop. Why? Because that watch is too good not to own. Game’s ok too.
