Hotline Miami Joins PlayStation Plus Instant Game Collection This Week
Hotline Miami is one of those games that must be experienced to be understood. The 8-bit aesthetic, pulsing soundtrack (best experienced with headphones), and mind-bending story all make for a surreal, blood-soaked experience. If you have a PlayStation Plus membership, all of that is yours free once the store update hits tomorrow.
You can read our review of Hotline Miami here. You can also check out the October Instant Game Collection titles to find out what's come available recently.

Our Take
I missed Hotline Miami on PC, but picked it up immediately on PlayStation 3 and Vita (via cross-buy). Playing on a Vita was a great experience, and the controls worked great. Just make sure you find all the puzzle pieces so you get the real ending.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
