I used to play this on vita and the last couple of levels pissed me off so much that I had to take a break, and seeing that the second one was leaving PS Now soon I decided to play it on a whim, beating it on two sittings and even going for some of the miscellaneous trophies afterward. Playing that, suffering through its hell made me realize that a lot of my problems came from the vita and so I decided to play this on PS4, starting from the beginning and playing through the entire thing until I beat it and now Im planning on going for the platinum. It's a weird thing. I was so adamant on giving these games a 7/10 because they pissed me off twice as much as they were fun. But sitting here having completed both and even watching youtube videos about them I reflect on the experience as a whole and realize I enjoyed them a lot more than I gave them credit for and even though I believe overall 2 was more unique and enjoyable, I had a damn good time with both.

Letsgooo! Hotline Miami is like a little sibling or something, they're fucking annoying and almost never feel rewarding but you can't help but hit them with bats and throw axes at them for fun sometimes :)
