Yes.












...:D

I personally don't think one is superior to the other.

Hotline Miami is supposedly easier due to levels being more constrained, whereas in HM2 you have very long levels with enemies able to shoot you from out of sight. HM is shorter than HM2 (5-6 hours to finish the main story versus 8-9 hours), but you can't really understand what's happening in HM2 without playing HM first. On the other side, there's no real closure to HM and HM2 is needed to know the whole picture.

I really think you should take both games as one continuous story split in two tomes.

for me

HM2 > HM1 -- Casually

HM1 > HM2 - Speedrun wise

But they're both great games

Hotline Miami 2 has a lot more polish than the first game and has a better approach for art and story. As the abover posters say, HM2 has more constrained levels so you have less freedom in how to do each. In this respect, HM2 is a more difficult game in my opinion, but it more than makes up for it with a more coherent story and better art and sound direction.

I agree that you kinda need both, but if you only have the money for one game, make it Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number.

I find hotline miami 1 more fun then HM2 because HM2 makes me ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ angry as I ever could be and made me almost break my laptop while I was on a train.

Hotline Miami 2's Control is better than Hotline Miami 1's Control, both games are fine tho :)
