It’s a sad day today, given the closure of Tango Gameworks, producers of the perfectly 9\/10 excellent<\/a> Hi-Fi Rush<\/strong>. That being said, an opportunity exists for PC players to score it in a bundle (which most notably includes Yakuza: Like A Dragon<\/strong>) for posterity and a pittance. Of all the recent dev shedding that’s been going on, this one feels especially senseless. Do not sleep on this surprise gem of a game, which is also going for 30% off on PS Store<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

In retro news, I’m celebrating the 22nd birthday of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty<\/strong>. To be honest, I recall way less of MGS2’s ultra-serious musings about nuclear arms proliferation than I do its cool (and often silly) easter eggs that tickled my brain. Stuff like the projector trick<\/a>, ninja box takedowns<\/a>, and making Otacon lose it over my unique brand of photojournalism<\/a>. Stumbling across these myself, in those (relatively) pre-Internet days, was pure magic<\/em>. Nobody made ’em like Kojima.<\/p>\n
