Hotline Miami to bloody PS3, Vita this spring
Hotline Miami is coming to PlayStation 3 and Vita this spring as a cross-buy game, Devolver Digital has announced.
Hotline Miami got a lot of attention on PC last year (though arguably not enough). In case you missed it on the ol' computer box, though, you'll be able to play it on the PlayStation 3 and Vita this spring. Better yet, it will be a cross-buy title, so purchasing either one nets you both versions.
The port is being handled by Dutch developer Abstraction Games, while original developer Dennaton is no doubt occupied with the sequel. Check out the slightly psychotic trailer below.

I can't imagine this game with a controller but good luck to 'em!

the game was quite difficult even with the twitch ability of a mouse, I can't imagine it translates well to a controller for most people. I definitely prefer a controller for twin stick style games like this but since enemies had such fast reaction times and everything was insta kill moving wasn't really that important compared to aiming, where as something like Geometry Wars the ease of moving with a controller is worth the loss of precision aiming.

It's really not that bad at all. One might not be able to chain an entire level or set the highest scores, but the game is beatable and easily playable with a controller. I tried using a keyboard, however I couldn't get used to how movement was done with it. Switched to a controller and never tried kb/mouse after that.

just the idea of throwing knives with a stick seems crazy hard. I believe one of the bosses required it too....

gonna have to seriously tone down the reaction time and maybe count of enemies

because the game is super twitchy

lock on autoaim?! is that only with a controller plugged in? that just completely changes the game to me

you are blowing my mind, that seems like a completely different game. If not for the twitchyness required with the mouse and difficulty I think I'd have beaten the game in like 3 hours and found it a bit too repetitive.

I don't know how I missed lock on in any tutorial part (clicking my middle mouse button doesn't really work...). The only discussion I heard about it was on Idle Thumbs where they mentioned how it was sorta a puzzle game to figure out how to clear levels so it seemed natural to me that you'd have to replay it a bunch of times to figure out how to get through each floor.

that's generally how I tried to play (often with the mask that made throwing weapons lethal and silent) but that still meant there was quite a bit of twitchy ranged shots required at times. Some of the boss fights were really tough too.

I actually think it's too fast for twin sticks but I'm sure I'll be proved wrong.

Will this come to 360 eventually?

Sony usually locks up indies pretty good. Idle Thumbs called it Sony Jail
-
Booooo

I beat the game without knowing about the lock-on feature. I think it made me think about strategy more, maybe even made it easier.
