If you get the best ending in the first game, Biker leaves Miami. He is seen outside the courthouse in the second game. Jacket dies in the explosion no matter what happens.
when you beat the game at the end a nuclear explosion goes off killing many of the players including pardo pardo's friend (can't think of his name) and richter it is unsaid if richter and jacket make it out alive though but every now and then after the credits the hotline miami 3 title screen appears hinting some people may have survived
I remember sitting in the menu screen after finishing the game, realizing what it meant and just... staring at it. Contemplating it as images of some of the choices i made in life flashed before me. All accompanied by this amazing soundtrack. Funny how such a violent game leaves us in an empty state of emotions in the end, huh?
Enemy Combatant The man wearing glasses in HM2 official image is named Beard, who fought the war between the USA and Russia with HM1 protagonist called jacket and saved him during the war. Beard got nuked by Russia in 1986 after he returned to San Francisco, which made jacket mourn the loss of his best friend and gave him enough reason to follow the anonymous phone calls that instruct to kill Russian mafias in HM1. Eventually in HM2 ending Miami also gets nuked, taking many lives including jacket’s and then you realize main menu of HM2 shows exactly when the bomb hit the city EDIT: the poster shows the last moment of Beard in San Francisco.
The story really shreds on how pointless our fighting, relationship problems, and arguments with eachother as humans is, how pointless the violence and killing in the game is in vain for the fact of the nuclear bomb... something that ends up killing us all, proving that all the fighting was meaningless, it was all for nothing, as in the end we all end up killed by the same bullet.. Death.. a power which we will never control.. it shows how much death is apart of life, and how sometimes we get so caught up in meaningless affairs that do nothing but add to the pile of regrets and uselessness in our future, if we so have one. Live, as much as there is death.
“How long do I have?” “You? You don't have much time. No one does.” “There's nothing I can do about it, right?” “No…By now there's nothing anyone can do about it.” “Okay. No need to fight it then.” “I'm glad you understand...”
As a fan of the games I have made a cult that’s the exact same as Christianity but we play hotline Miami for a good half hour and pray, it currently has 14 followers
I remember that summer of 2012 playing hm for first time and when hotline miami 2 out and i see this i think "hey is a tropic storm in miami or something like that" and i decide end that nigth hm 2 and when i see the end and the title screen come out again my eyes turn in tears and i cry listen this melody and see it the background
That's what great games do to you. You're watching Miami slowly getting destroyed from your very own screen. What can you do? Nothing. All you can do is watch this unfold.
Without a doubt, one of the most artistically powerful title screens I've ever seen. It just hits you with so much, especially once you beat the game and you know it's true meaning.
I love how the normal menu is miami as it's getting nuked and the hard mode is after the nuke super awesome detail dennaton definently one of my favourite games of all time
In Hotline Miami we see richter as a pretty weird ass person, in the ending of hotline Miami 2 we see him as a man trying to care for his mother in the deep electric capital of Florida
This... This god damn sound track, right here. (This is me returning to the song, almost a year after i needed it.) To some, its just a stupid sad song To others, its the starting theme to one of their favorite games. To me... Its one of the only reasons i didnt blow my brains out. Let me explain I dont know who's gonna fuckin' read this. And to be completely honest, i dont fuckin care that much either. Im just greatful its still here, and more or less this is a thank you to hotline miami, the writers of the ost, and the splendid person who extended the song and put it right here. Right where i needed it. One day, normal fuckin day, you'd think. Sitting there in the living room, smoking weed and decimating the germans in call of duty black ops 2. Me and my roommate start chatting it up, when all of a sudden, i hear my dad exclaim out of pain, maybe even fear.... I hear a loud thud... To spare the excruciating details, my dad had a freak accident. Next thing i know, the paramedics are about 11 defibs "clears" in.... And he's in a gurnie... Shit was haunting me. Couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, i couldn't be me... 3-4 days in, ready to say my goodbyes to my dad. I wake up to my dog barking like crazy, and my roommates sounding like they're having a house party. I go into the other room, and theres my older brother. In a time where i had nobody to comfort me but my dog, a disinterested (ex) girlfriend, a best friend with his own life to live, in a time where i needed the old mans advice the most, and he tries to kick the bucket... My older brother was my fuckin saving grace. With him came his old friends who i also became friends with eventually, now that i wasnt 8 years old and obnoxious to them. Me and my older brother fought our battle. He knew how devastated i was, and he was too. But he knew i needed the helping hand. Cuz after he leaves, it'd just be me and my unamused gf again. He whips out a big old hard drive, plugs it into my computer. We smoke a bowl, watch some youtube, have some laughs for old times sake. The hard drive finished importing files, he turned my laptop to me, and says "choose a game" hotline miami 2, first selection. I had just chosen randomly. Im not one for modern 8-bit games. But this game has a nice little spot nestled in my heart. The second the first notes of this theme hit my ears, i just quietly cried instantly. 20 year old me, crying like a bitch.. It felt good, crying like that after so many years of being pent up... If you made it this far, the world lost a legend a while ago. No celeb could amount to what he did, he was rich in heart, mind, and soul. Took care of boys who werent his blood, fathered the fatherless. In loving memory of Christopher S Rehder, june 28th 1972, May 25th 11:25 pm, 2019. .....fuck.......
I miss hotline miami, but i am also kinda glad it ended with one of the best games to ever be published. I definitely wouldnt want to see it become repetitive and get stuck in a constant loop, something like Far cry 3-6
I love how the peaceful nature of this music does something different to me after I have knowledge of HM2's ending. It's the same song, but context is all.
Wish there was a looped video or animated gif of the background. Without the Hotline Miami 2 menu and letters. Just the background of Miami being obliterated...
+Keeps I mean, you COULD argue that everyone got what they wanted in the end: Richter died taking care of his mom, Manny had gotten the attention he wanted (although he was also hysterical), Evan either worked on his book or reconciled with his family, the actress drank herself into a stupor, and Jacket occupied himself with menial tasks just like when he broke up with his previous girlfriend. Everyone was doing something they felt needed to be done.
this title screen says it all. whatever problems you have right now always remember that it doesn't matter because everything will end that means you , your problems and the earth.
bro, 8 years later and this video still fucking hits. I remember being in high school laying on my bed listening to this exact video in my room contemplating my life and telling myself that id be happy with a everything in the future. That life would get better and treat me good. 8 years and I've grown a lot since then, I can say whole heartedly that I deff had it easier when I was a kid lol, but that's not to say I'm not grateful for all the hardship. without it I wouldn't be who I am at this exact moment. I used the mistakes that I made as lessons, and as I got older I understood that life gives you cards and its up to you to play with what you got. A good sailor was never made without strong winds. Glad I didn't take my life in those early years. It gets better. Just gotta keep fighting like hell. I know for a fact if my younger saw who I am now and saw how much I changed he wouldn't believe it and be start struck...... To the random stranger reading this, keep fighting like hell. It gets better eventually...
Not gonna lie hotline miami games were the best games I’ve ever seen The story, the adrenaline, the songs, i mean everything was here to make you like this game I think HM should be an example for other games Thanks devs for making me cry so hard when all ended
+anna ro Obviously he's a murderous sociopath whom of which has taken out entire buildings full of hostile individuals without a single scratch taken to his person.
You go trough another cigarette, cruising down the empty highway. No traffic, no radio signal to be picked up, no words spoken, nothing. Just you and the highway. Whatever happened, to make these streets empty? And why should you care? You ponder as a voice inside your head tells you to get out of the car and go into the ocean. Into the sunset, into the unknown. It's a good thing you brought your bottle though. It drowns out every other thought and melts life's problems into a sweet elixir of alcohol. It lets you speed down your highway. Goodbye.
I dont know what to do anymore after all i went in my life i just feel useless and hearing this theme it judt calms me i played hotline miami 2 in one of if not the worst times in my life, that's why i love hotline miami 2 the ost. The gameplay.thestory is just perfect sometimes after beating and going to the main menu i just cry remembering those time and how much it helped me i just love hotline miami and ut changed my life
The real sad realization of this all is the fact we wont be getting another one of these games at all or any time soon at least...just makes this screen more sad then ever.
i dont like saying spoilers but the background in the beginning is a foreshadow and this game is such a great game and might be a cult classic. and maybe its the wrong number because this IS HotLine Miami 3... "Leaving this world is not as scary as it sounds"
Jesus Christ, I don't think I have ever liked a more in-depth story than Hotline Miami. I played it and thought it was just violence, there was so much more when I looked into the story. This is one of my favorite pieces of media that I think will stick with me forever.
10:00pm in Florida, gyms and everything else are closed, routines all fucked up. I’m alone at the park doing pull ups and dips and I come across this song and I just caught some introspective peace while looking out at the water. Last few days have been pretty fucked up for many reasons, money issues, medication issues, but this was like breath of fresh air. I’ve heard dust and a few others, but not this. I think I’ll go home and download hotline miami
Imagine this. Sitting on a beach in Miami. When a sudden flash appears. You realize it's not someone's flash on their phone. It's a nuke. You just sit there. Knowing that it's over.
It's honestly sad. When you think about it this games story is just a little heartbreaking to see, Beard especially as he really didn't deserve to die. He just wanted to have a good life and even though that meant he had to kill he still did it despite not liking it. In the end though he still died.
played this game last night for first time incredibly baked and i sat on this menu screen for ages the music is so great just like sun araw in first game i like how its more chill as well adds uneasy somber vibe
It wasn't obvious to me that the image of Miami in the background is during the instant the nuke hits, but now that I know I have to say that detail is REALLY clever
50 blessings came out victorious. War with russia broke. Miami got nuked,and every single main character is dead. No russian mobsters to kill,nor any american activists to kill them. All is over in Miami.
I know it's just a video game but it's one of the few video games that will sincerely make you think and that's because it has so many meaningful lessons I was kind depressed after finishing hotline Miami
The lesson of HM2 was basically things fade away over time. Nothing you can do to change that outcome. Nothing you can do afterwards except move on. Much like how Dennaton has moved away from the HM series. Much like how a irradiated city crumbles. Much like what happened with Beard. Much like everything.
Didnt know how much blue could be depressing until i changed into hard mode with this song playing. The song hits differently after you finish the game
I legitimately thought it was a hurricane. I figured there'd be a major storm to symbolize the absolute chaos caused by 50 Blessings towards the end of the game. When I realized what it actually was... goosebumps.
a couple days ago i finally finished getting 100% on Hotline Miami and decided to boot up Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number to have a crack at it, and i got stuck, staring at the bright endless pink, for something so active, it was quiet and i got lost in it, i thought about my family, i thought about all the time in my life that i'll never get back, i thought about my future and what's to come, i thought about my life and what it's meant to me, what my life has meant to others. i decided to talk to my mom for a bit before starting the game. you only get one shot make it count
You can see that with only the title and the music it tries to tell you the difference it has with hot line miami 1, in 1 everything is very fast-paced and lively, here it is slow and heavy. Hotline Miami 1 is the party, and Hotline Miami 2 is the hangover

10:00pm in Florida, gyms and everything else are closed, routines all fucked up. I’m alone at the park doing pull ups and dips and I come across this song and I just caught some introspective peace while looking out at the water. Last few days have been pretty fucked up for many reasons, money issues, medication issues, but this was like breath of fresh air. I’ve heard dust and a few others, but not this. I think I’ll go home and download hotline miami
Sigh life isn't easy mate
Imagine this. Sitting on a beach in Miami. When a sudden flash appears.
You realize it's not someone's flash on their phone.
It's a nuke.
You just sit there.
Knowing that it's over.
Shit
Phones that take photos didn't exist in 1991
If my brain had speakers on it...this music would almost always be coming out of it.
It's honestly sad. When you think about it this games story is just a little heartbreaking to see, Beard especially as he really didn't deserve to die. He just wanted to have a good life and even though that meant he had to kill he still did it despite not liking it. In the end though he still died.
All he really wanted was a peaceful job, a peaceful life, but in the end all that got him was a peaceful death.
played this game last night for first time incredibly baked and i sat on this menu screen for ages the music is so great just like sun araw in first game i like how its more chill as well adds uneasy somber vibe
Holy fuck y'all I didn't even notice the 100,000 mark. Much love.
You’re welcome dude
I am very grateful to this game. She taught me to appreciate life, I am happy when I return to this beautiful world of cruelties. Thanks Hotline Miami
It wasn't obvious to me that the image of Miami in the background is during the instant the nuke hits, but now that I know I have to say that detail is REALLY clever
Y'all know why you're here, good times never last. There's nothing you can do to fight it
Man I grinded this game out I 2018-2019. One of the BEST games I ever played.
I’m getting so much nostalgia from this haha
Honestly I think Hotline Miami is one of the best critiques of violence in gaming
with less than a gb, they created one of the biggest games of all time
Before game: Oh heck, it's kinda windy in Miami
After game: Not wind... just sadness
how it feels to graduate
real talk
Hotline Miami 3: Leaving a message
Too bad there won't be a HM3.
There's a russian version of hotline miami
@@BloonProductions is it different?
Theres Hotline Milwaukee
I like to think that HM3 is actually Farcry 3: Blood Dragon
50 blessings came out victorious. War with russia broke. Miami got nuked,and every single main character is dead. No russian mobsters to kill,nor any american activists to kill them. All is over in Miami.
There will *never* be a hotline miami 3.
Good times never last
*Leaving this world isn't as scary as it sounds*

I know it's just a video game but it's one of the few video games that will sincerely make you think and that's because it has so many meaningful lessons I was kind depressed after finishing hotline Miami
The lesson of HM2 was basically things fade away over time. Nothing you can do to change that outcome. Nothing you can do afterwards except move on. Much like how Dennaton has moved away from the HM series. Much like how a irradiated city crumbles. Much like what happened with Beard. Much like everything.
Didnt know how much blue could be depressing until i changed into hard mode with this song playing. The song hits differently after you finish the game
Just randomly hit me in my feelings
At first I thought the background of the game was wind or a heavy storm taking place in Miami but when I beat the game, everything makes sense now
“In the event of nuclear war there will be no winners, only losing less than the other poor bastard”
heh, funny, The vinyl crackling sounds like a geiger count... oh
Masterpiece, not a game - it's art
This is the only game that changed me and made me think about how short and difficult life is. This is the best thing I've ever played
Before finishing the game: Huh, this menu screen looks a bit weird.
After finishing the game: *Oh...*
I legitimately thought it was a hurricane. I figured there'd be a major storm to symbolize the absolute chaos caused by 50 Blessings towards the end of the game. When I realized what it actually was... goosebumps.
a couple days ago i finally finished getting 100% on Hotline Miami and decided to boot up Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number to have a crack at it, and i got stuck, staring at the bright endless pink, for something so active, it was quiet and i got lost in it, i thought about my family, i thought about all the time in my life that i'll never get back, i thought about my future and what's to come, i thought about my life and what it's meant to me, what my life has meant to others.
i decided to talk to my mom for a bit before starting the game.
you only get one shot
make it count
I only played this because my buddies said I wasn’t good enough to beat it. I cannot believe the grip it took on me
such a bright future
NUKES.
*ALL OF THE FREAKIN' NUKES.*
+Snow Conditions DROP EM
Future's so bright I gotta wear sh- WTF *BOOOOOOOMMMMM*
*Maniacal cackling
I like how there's no "quit game" option :)
Theres something emotional about this menu theme, when i hear it i feel depression and sad memories show up in my head 😢
melancholic
Ahh yes
Enslaved 80's
Sydney?
One of the best Indie games I've ever played
1. Lisa the painful
2. Hotline Miami
3. Ultrakill
4. Doki Doki Literature club
The only ending I feel at the end of the world
You can see that with only the title and the music it tries to tell you the difference it has with hot line miami 1, in 1 everything is very fast-paced and lively, here it is slow and heavy.
Hotline Miami 1 is the party, and Hotline Miami 2 is the hangover
feels weird to see the old title screen without the level editor option
The fact that the ending was right in front of us the entire time lmao
It hurts
Hearing this one last time before we all get drafted
Эта музыка такая приятная,что аж на душе легче становится
Yeah it really does *set your soul on fire* doesn’t it
playing for first time: oww this wind is very strong!
After ending: owh this wind... 😔
Was listening to this of my final day at school senior by the way and it hit me hard I was and happy and surprisingly sad
This feels like if someonw finally everything they've ever wishes for. But they still feel so incomplete
I could not even think that palm trees sway from a nuclear wave
