  Hi-Fi Rush really is a nearly perfect game. Everything from the gameplay to the art style to the animation to the writing is just… *chef’s kiss*

  Made me even more mad over everything that happened to Tango Gameworks (and, frankly, the game industry for the past decade or so)

  Fortunately for Tango Gamrworks, they did find a buyer (Krafton) after Microsoft cut them loose, and they kept the IP and plan for more Hi-Fi Rush content.

  Let’s hope the new owners treat them better.

    But I'm paying Microsoft if I buy it now, right? I wonder how Tango feel about that. Like, I wanna buy it, but I cannot justify giving money to Microsoft.

      Yeah, Microsoft kept the publishing rights to the first game and Tango gets nothing if you buy it.

      I don’t know if they still do it, but Microsoft used to give a free month of Game Pass to entice new signups. If that offer’s still open, you could grab it and play the game without giving them a cent.
