Live from 4pm BST

The inauguralRPS Game Clubliveblog session is here!

See you at 4pm sharp!

Our live coverage of this event has finished.

The main cast of Hi-Fi Rush strike various poses in front of a fountain at night

Love a bit of Bit.Trip.

you’ve got the option to catch thelink here.

I’d never thought of it like that, but you’re absolutely right.

Flannery from Pokemon

Haha, I do feel very lucky, that’s for sure.

I didn’t realise it was all on Spotify!

Currently listening to Too Big To Fail.

Korsica from Hi-Fi Rush

Oh yeah, SEB-AAA is great.

I’m assuming he’s a direct play on Sebastian from Evil Within.

The easter eggs in this game are fantastic.

Chai bursts through a robot’s arm in Hi-Fi Rush

The snail logo that hangs around in certain levels.

I loved them all.

Like Katharine said, I agree that most of the tunes blend into the background a bit.

Chai and 808 pose in a photo cutout standee in Hi-Fi Rush

Really, 808 also deserves a mention here as clearly the best video game cat.

We’re defo gonna have toredo our listsoon…

The little dance they do during the dream sequence is maybe my gaming highlight of the year so far.

A man with SICKOS written on his shirt stares through a window laughing. His speech bubble reads: “Yes… ha ha ha… YES!"

Truth

I was thinking about this constantly while playing it.

The talent they’ve cultivated there is phenomonal.

I can’t wait to see what they do next.

Not gonna lie.

But in my defence,look at this.

Macaron is a real sweetie.

I killedso many of these.

Huh, how interesting!

Nice little foreshadowing for Korsica’s character arc there, too.

Absolutely outraged at all the wanton cleaner bot destruction.

Shame on you all.

This was mine, too.

Yeah, the choreography, blocking and plotting of the cutscenes in general is just superb.

Lots of great sight and spoken gags in there.

I loved facing off against the robots that forced you into those minigames before you could defeat them.

Ah yeah this bit was great, good shout.

Oh man, the samurai bots with their very solemn poems were brilliant.

I have completely forgotten this section, which probably speaks volumes.

The Twin Peaks cat dance was indeed brilliant.

Oh man, yes, I couldn’t summon Korsica fast enough in those fights!

Haha, here’s a question actually: you walk into Vanderlay to get the latest robo implant.

What would you get?

I’d love for them to add additional weapons (themed after different insruments, naturally).

I’d also like to play as other characters, I think?

Peppermint sections would transform the game into a third-person shooter, Macaron a side-scrolling brawler etc.

This is such a good suggestion.

That’s how the human body works, right?

Some final thoughts before I bounce: Hi-Fi Rush is probably my game of the year so far.

I’m so happy it exists, and I can’t wait to see what the team make next.

Thanks everyone, this was a blast!

Also loved this bit as well.

Just look at these guys.
