What can I say about hotline Miami.... oh yeah it's awesome. an 8 bit retro feel game with a nice modern take that is sure to please many with a lust for pix elated blood.

The pros of this game:

-solid game play which encourages imaginative means of killing foes
-nice 8 bit appearance which gives the game a nice retro feel
-excruciatingly difficult in places (I'm a whore for punishment)
-mind **** storyline

Cons

-The AI is ropey in places and foes can be easily tricked
-guns seem to have the dead rising complex of not being able to be reloaded
-Boss battle are easy and unimaginative

The cons are small problems however the AI could do with tweaking and the inclusion of more variety in enemies would be refreshing touch.
