This mistake results in the corporation wanting him dead for… reasons that aren’t explained particularly well, but who cares, it’s as good an excuse as any to smash some robots. After a “minor” mistake in the procedure, Chai winds up with both the mechanical arm and an iPod inside of his chest. In a mysterious corporate hellscape where everyone is named after Starbucks frappuccino flavors, we play as a complete tosser named Chai who volunteers for a robotic arm replacement from one of those evil corporations. But instead of trying to make fast-paced punching roommates with slow, methodical detective work, Hi-Fi RUSH takes the perhaps more sensible route and combines action with something just as fast-paced: rhythm games. My propensity to complain about everything aside, another trend that seems to be popular this month is creating a game by combining action with another, very different genre. That said, I don’t think a week or two of notice would go unappreciated? Just so I can plan out my evenings and not have to call off my very invasion of East Caledonia at the last moment so I can get the reviews in. I probably shouldn’t be complaining I’ve frequently lambasted companies for announcing games and then providing an interminably long wait for hype to build up, only for the eventual product to inevitably fall short of the now-unrealistic expectations. It's certainly been one heck of a month for shadow dropping titles, with both Metroid Prime Remastered and Hi-Fi RUSH being casually dropped on our laps with essentially no notice.
