Buying the Digital Deluxe Edition of Hotline Miami 2 on Steam gives you some DLC for a separate game, Payday 2. If you live in Australia you can't buy Hotline Miami 2 on Steam at all, so the developers of Payday 2 have offered a free code for that DLC to anyone that e-mails them a scanned copy of their passport or other Australian ID.

I thought I was done, but I've been itching to install and play again because the Evil Eye track just isn't the same outside the game.

Pre-ordered. Here's hoping the longer dev time combined with it being a sequel means this ian't a buggy mess at launch like the first was.

HLM was the first time either of them had made a retail game, so it was something of a learning experience.

It should be basically the same as the first game is currently bug wise though, I'd imagine.

Anyways, 12 days to go.

Is there any way to get a poster of the Hotline Miami 2 cover art? The psychedelic one with the guy in the hoodie and the broken glasses. I'd totally buy one but all I can find are people selling hand-numbered fine prints at $50, which seems a bit steep.

Fuck you say?
Part of the reason why I'm not in arms about GTA5 being delayed for the PC again is because of this game coming out in March. Preorder secured, I'm so hype to play this! Any idea if the level editor will be in the game too?

I'm psyched Carpenter Brut is going to have a couple/few songs in the game after being featured in the Dial Tone trailer.

If your haven't listened to Carpenter Brut, he's posted most if not all the songs from his 3 EPs on YouTube and his music is loving awesome.

On behalf of the Payday 2 goons I thank you all for allowing our dumb event to succeed. I wasn't that good at the first game, but I'm going to give it and the sequel a try once it comes out.

Maybe I'm just horrible (this is very likely) but I don't know if it's possible to be good at Hotline Miami. The fun of the game comes in that I die horribly over and over again but then when I do finish a level, I dance around the room telling my PC to gently caress off and generally feel good about myself.

Because that's what I need in my life.

Heads up for any other Australians in here. I managed to purchase Hotline Miami 2 from Gamersgate without it throwing any region restriction errors at me. According to them it will give out a Steam key.

Of course it remains to be seen if the key from them activates properly, but it's a start. I guess the other thing to try is getting an American to gift it through Steam

You can preorder the game on Nuuvem for around ~$8.50. It's not region locked, though I think its the normal version and not the Special Edition.

No, but it's being built in the engine used for the PS3/PS4/Vita ports of the original, which the original was then ported back to on PC. That's what the big update that added leaderboards did.
