Xbox's Hi-Fi RUSH Limited Run Physical Release Is Still Happening

Kinda want to buy a physical version now and I didn't even buy physical games anymore.

For PlayStation, of course.

If I didn't already play it on GP I definitely wouldn't buy it now as I know that not even a single penny will go to the developers that made such a classic 😐

@NEStalgia I might get the Series X version just to have it. Never the PS version.

@Tecinthehead the pennies don’t go to the developers anyway right? Even if they are alive… surely it would have always gone to Bethesda, and then to Microsoft Gaming’s pot.

@K1LLEGAL PS just for spite.

@NEStalgia MS will still get your money though better to just boycott it

@NEStalgia 😂😂 fair. I just can’t support their PS releases myself.

@Artois2 Do you think we should boycott every game made or involved in the development of by London Studios that Sony recently shut down ? What about the Insomniac Games, Naughty dog and Firesprite layoffs should we boycott their games as well as those people are in exactly the same position as the ones who worked at Tango.

I don't do physical and it's on gamepass literally no reason to buy

@NEStalgia That doesn't make much sense if Sony is the alternative.

LRG can just go to hell.

Played it on a free gamepass trial, bought on PS5 and would love in my PS5 physical collection

@Banjo- I'd say Nintendo but Satya closed them before that could happen .... Ps is the only spite option 😞

I’m not a fan of LRG, but I do want a copy of this game for my collection that can’t be delisted or deleted from an account. Likely PS5.

... and I'm gonna buy a copy as soon as it's available.

Although, I always planed to get the Series X version, but now I must say : I'm tempted to get it on PS5 instead. Which I know would mean nothing : some money will still go to the company that closed this studio, regardless of the version you choose...

But I don't know why, maybe I'll feel better about myself if I'm going the PS way on this one. We'll see.

@Bobobiwan With all the annoying decisions MS has been making lately…a physical PS5 copy might be the best way to play this long term. I no longer have confidence another gen of XBox consoles will be coming down the pike, but you know there’ll be a PS6 and it’ll likely have an optical drive.

@NEStalgia I don't know... I don't have any Limited Run product, but after reading Time Extension's article, they seem to be some kind of home-made copies. I don't see the point. I think that digital is better than physical, at least on Xbox. I have my doubts about Nintendo because of Wii U-Switch and NNID-Nintendo, but physical Nintendo games can be sold even after the console breaks and you don't need the games. Someone will buy them, but I guess the originals only. Another big reason is that Nintendo's digital games are ultra-expensive. I think that digital is best, that's why we should demand better digital rights.

If anyone has a Steam Deck (and would like to play natively instead of via Xcloud), just a heads up Humble Choice this month includes Hi-Fi Rush as well as Like a Dragon and Steelrising. They're all games I've been keen to get on my Deck so I snapped it up
