Hotline Miami expands on the original's gameplay with new characters, unique abilities and more challenges with more focus on tight execution rather than the frenetic action of the first HM.

The basic gameplay loop is fun as fuck, and when Microsoft isn't trying to turn it into an eSports also-ran, the multiplayer is pretty great.

343 Industries
Despite Konami's attempts to fuck it up, the polish on the shooting shows, even if you don't give a shit about customizing weapons or extra missions...actually, especially if you don't care about extra missions.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
Directed by Hideo Kojima
The only good part of the game.
