The kicker being that because of the MP3 player in his chest, Chai’s life now moves to the beat of whatever song is playing. Well, not just arms he also uses a bunch of scrap metal that’s magnetically configured into a club shaped like a Gibson Flying V guitar. This prompts the facility’s robot guards to mark him as defective, forcing him to take up arms to defend himself. It was with this in mind that I started playing the rhythmic third-person hack & slash action game Hi-Fi Rush (Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PC), initially with the music cranked up, but later with it turned off, to see if it was even playable, let alone fun, without the tunes…and, of course, if it was fun in the first place.Ĭhai is a rock star wannabe who goes in to have his arm replaced with a robotic one, and accidentally has a MP3 player implanted in his chest as well. Metal: Hellsinger was like that it worked just as well (or, in my case, even better) when I turned the music off. Oddly, though, some rhythm games don’t actually need you to listen to the music. Not only do you frequently feel compelled to turn a game’s music off - which can lead to weird moments, like when you go into the bar in Mass Effect and see people dancing to silence - but it can make rhythm games extra annoying unless they have the word “ Metallica” in the title. Sometimes it sucks to be a gamer who’s picky about music.
