Chai, a 25-year old man with a disabled arm with a dream to become a guitarist rockstar, arrives at Vandelay Technologies campus to volunteer for Project Armstrong, a test program for cybernetic limb replacement. However, when the company’s CEO, Kale Vandelay carelessly throws Chai's portable music player, it fell onto into the latter’s chest and fused with him during the embedment, causing him to feel a musical connection with his surroundings. As a result of the accident caused by Kale’s carelessness, Chai is labeled a defect and the facility's robotic security forces pursue him, seeking to "recall" the defect.

Chai is the average gamer personality straight ported into the game: - not listening to the NPCs - no care what the "evil plan for worlddomination" is - slight godcomplex about their powers
Technically also involved peer pressure and a slight issue that he could be mind controlled, funny thing is he gets given a bogus position and isn't paid anything for his job
To somewhat paraphrase a video game critic, it's quite possible these AAA game companies know what they are doing and know what people want, and choose to ignore it to keep pushing out the same crap to get more money out of it.
@@MadnessBomberto that, I have to offer this rebuttal. If their games all truly were crap, they wouldn’t be selling like hotcakes. Putting stock in IPs that have a good record of selling is good business practice typically. Heck, look at the halo franchise. Barring infinite just for the sake of argument, not a single halo game has been awful: all play well, have had decent multiplayer, and for the most part had good stories. That’s not to detract from crunch culture and other such atrocities that you’ll find in EA of blizzard, but game quality is never truly the issue.
37:30 I love how while all the other bosses are caught up in making themselves look good for the group call, Korsica is the only one attentive enough to notice Chai right away.
Can we agree that Roquefort is 100% a furry. Like he could be going for the werewolf approach but he does take up the form and behavior of a wolf as part of his boss fight.
This is the love child of early 2000s games that I never knew I wanted. A story reminiscent of Sly, platforming like Crash, an art style like Jet Set and a beat'em up like DMC. I never would have guessed it, but it's a match made in heaven.
This game's art style looks so dope. Man, when I think of me being amazed playing games on my SNES back in the day, I now realize how far video games has come. And like damn, everything you do here goes right on beat with the background music. Just automatically sync with it. That is so dope.
This is definitely a good vibes game, one we need after some interesting years and plenty of stories which prided themselves with how bad things can get.
2:23:35 Chai: This is the greatest plan ever! Everyone Else: This is the dumbest plan ever I think this cutscene epitomizes everything I love about this game
Honestly, the more I watch these cutscenes (only like 2 hours in to this video), the more I love every little detail. Cinnamon wiping his face to change expressions, the multitude of Jojo references with the insane doctor, the little dumb bits of comedy or meta humour (like the "shoot you out of a cannon" bit, foreshadowing what comes next). They're not just dumb cutscenes, you can just feel that the writers and animators cooperated to give us the best and dumbest jokes they could find. I haven't played the game but, honestly, the cutscenes alone have made me add it to my watchlist. I don't mind the plot being spoiled, it actually helps me decide if I want the game or not, and this is SO on my "want" list.
It's like what Alan Wake 2 does with gameplay and live-action footage. Both work well for the art styles each game is going for, because they both have that much confidence in their graphical design.
They certainly left a lot of things open for the sequel with this game's plot. Why Chai has a disabled arm appears to be one left open as a example. Not to mention the fates of all other people who took part in Project Armstrong.
It's amazing how far we've come since Toy Story. Now our games today look as beautiful as-if not better than-what made Pixar one of the best animated and emotional masterpieces of our time. Now, games like Hi-Fi Rush look and feel as well as it should. Kinda wish Nintendo Switch or PS5 has this game, but I think it may be only fair for X-Box to have some legends too. 👍👍 PS: I Ship Chai X Korsica!
I was saying/thinking the same thing, man. These games came a long way since the NES-SNES days when I was a kid. I can only imagine what it'll be like 10-15 years from now.
You know, this game has an awesome soundtrack, and getting the tracks to match up with a lot of the stuff in game is just perfect. The characters are fun, the designs are definitely great, overall a very solid game.
Dear G.L.P. I like have to give you nicely the game movies that will be have something dramatic, something plot twisting, something... Incredible. for examples like: a four-way battle between Saxony Empire, Usonia Federal Union, Rusviet Tsardom and the Polania Republic in a world of war that supposed to be end of all wars, at the Historic Fiction Alternative Reality Timeline of The Great War in the year 1920 to a game called Iron Harvest & take on Full Force Assault on its might and conquering squad goals Into the shattered version world of the CROSSFIRE Universe as Three civil factions bring conflict, fighting for a Supremacy Dominance in CROSSFIRE: LEGION. P.S. Check it out of those faction spotlights Both about the factions of Iron Harvest in The Templin Institute Official Channel Post. Don't forget me to Like, Comment, & Share! Have a great time, G.L.P. Fellows & Folks😊👍.
This game is a masterpiece. Beautiful artwork and music, although they never really hyped up the release, which brought unironically more hype when people found out. This is like if Persona 5 Scramble met Rhythm Doctor. But, it would be pretty cool to see a custom mode where you can make your own levels. Nonetheless, this game is too cool to exist. 10/10
I just beat this game 2 days ago.. and it said only 8% of people beat this game.. how? How? HOW? This game is pretty dope with a dope replay after you beat it..
the game was pretty dope it’s kinda like a combinition game between persona 5 and no straight road game and also, the titled “Hi-fi rush” almost like “High on Life”😅 but i love it✨
I love it to tears if this game was converted into a movie, keeping the same art and style, just streamlining it into a film-length hilarious adventure.
I like how it's been 2,7 million years without defects... these guys immortals or something? Since Roxanne Vandelay "built the company from the ground up" and she don't seem that old... XD
While it is never outright stated, I LOVE how obvious it is that Peppermint at the very least has a massive crush on Korsica, especially during the final cutscene. Even more, I appreciate how it was kept at least a little ambiguous because having ANY characters being openly romantically interested/involved would have been a poor fit with the tone of the game.
2:15:00 right behind roqueforts transformation strangely this is my favorite cutscene in the game i love how the dress unfolds to wings on the beat for some reason and it was the one transformation that actually surprised me
Best Epic Badass Anime Video Game Movie right here! Love this! My Most Favorite Character of this Brand Newest Game is Erica Lindbeck as the Voice of Peppermint!
So this is what Brutal Legend would have been like without those tower features. Guitar Legend mixed with Devil May Cry gameplay is freaking awesome!!!
Curious for all the league of legends players, when the group is all together at the end (don't have timer) they look like a decent team comp Macaron top lane tank Cat is suppport yumi ofc Protagonist sounds like midlane ekko Peppermint is adc And korsika is jungle
This is exactly the kind of video I wanted about the game. But I suggest in the future you also tell us that you include minimal gameplay, not just cutscenes.
Just to think that the mother and other people in this universe can live so long almost immortal the company had about 2, 7 million years without any defects products that mother of peppermint is at least 2, 7 million years old

Do you know Erica Lindbeck?
Man what were the guys at forspoken doing?
what about the secret ending of the main ending? Could you please send it?
Is Kale 🥬 really that careless?
hnmm... that guy totally IS really officially Anti-Climatic.
Chai is the average gamer personality straight ported into the game:
- not listening to the NPCs
- no care what the "evil plan for worlddomination" is
- slight godcomplex about their powers
Note: The only reason Chai went through all of this is because a cute tan girl gave him the look of death and could’ve just bailed at any time
Technically also involved peer pressure and a slight issue that he could be mind controlled, funny thing is he gets given a bogus position and isn't paid anything for his job
And at the end, he doesn't even get the cute tan girl, because it turns out she has the hots for a cute Scottish mommy tsundere.
im sure it all started because kale threw that cursed mp3 of his while he was getting his amputation isnt it
@@ceruelion815Besides, I don't think he ever actually showed any attraction to Peppermint...like, at all.
Doesn’t this kinda sound like Scott Pilgrim to you?
The way how the music syncs with certain cutscenes And gameplay moments are just *chefs kiss* peak
Pretty amazing how they executed the sync to perfection.
@@glp I Absolutely Agree! The Perfect Synchronization of this Game is Magnificent and Incredible! 😀😃😄😁👍👌
I agree.
This, we need more games like this
... AND IT WAS SHADOW DROPPED!
To somewhat paraphrase a video game critic, it's quite possible these AAA game companies know what they are doing and know what people want, and choose to ignore it to keep pushing out the same crap to get more money out of it.

I like how Roquefort unleashed the beast to Beethoven's 5th Symphony. Class and intimidation at it's finest.
Can we agree that Roquefort is 100% a furry. Like he could be going for the werewolf approach but he does take up the form and behavior of a wolf as part of his boss fight.
Hilarious too
@@Ghostrecall_M I know one when I see one I mean u are who your friends are right a huhhuhhuh
@@Ghostrecall_M He's also filthy rich... Checks out
I've often said Beethoven was ahead of his time. This definitely proves it.
Game literally feels like its own TV series
It feel like Armored Advanture
Next episode of Hi-Fi Rush coming this Saturday at 8, only on Toonami!
This is the love child of early 2000s games that I never knew I wanted. A story reminiscent of Sly, platforming like Crash, an art style like Jet Set and a beat'em up like DMC. I never would have guessed it, but it's a match made in heaven.

I couldn't stop smiling during this entire game. It was the most fun I ever had playing a game in a very long time and is already my GOTY
2:23:35
Chai: This is the greatest plan ever!
Everyone Else: This is the dumbest plan ever
I think this cutscene epitomizes everything I love about this game
just like the phrase line reference of Charlie from The Henry Stickmin Collection game.
yeah pretty "The" most dumbest plan of all ever.😒😑
Hey, sometimes you got to be really dumb to be really smart and it's so crazy, it just might work
yep, Unusual but very really effective plan pal.
I wish I can be shootin out of a cannon 😊
I like how chai became more and more likeable as the game progresses, first he’s a bit of a narcissist but becomes a key team player
Honestly, the more I watch these cutscenes (only like 2 hours in to this video), the more I love every little detail. Cinnamon wiping his face to change expressions, the multitude of Jojo references with the insane doctor, the little dumb bits of comedy or meta humour (like the "shoot you out of a cannon" bit, foreshadowing what comes next).

The transition from 2d cutscene to 3d gameplay is so seamless and perfect.
It's like what Alan Wake 2 does with gameplay and live-action footage. Both work well for the art styles each game is going for, because they both have that much confidence in their graphical design.
that wink korsica gave peppermint, her blush, and subsequent effort to shuffle towards her was really cute,, i know what you are peppermint
This isn't a game man. This is like a full blown Anime. And I think we need a Season 2..
It feels more like a mix of cartoon and anime.
But how would that work in a game with a good ending like this?
@@internet_unfunny_man prolly should just be the whole gang living life after the shebang
Sadly that won’t happen due to Tango Gameworks shutting down…
@@samuraiturtle.2637 WHAT 😨
God I hope someone make this into a TV show this is a golden opportunity they're missing on this would be a great cartoon show
They certainly left a lot of things open for the sequel with this game's plot. Why Chai has a disabled arm appears to be one left open as a example. Not to mention the fates of all other people who took part in Project Armstrong.
Zanzo has a body pillow of himself found at 1:15:40 behind the characters
OF COURSE he has a body pillow of himself.
I love the art style and how sometimes you can forget your playing a game when the cutscenes come on
Man Korsica acting like no one would have guessed her password.
As soon as I saw what Peppermint was typing, I was just like, “It’s literally the word password? Really, Korsica?”
@@stardustpie1992 haha ỉk

khai or chaisca
@@xenodrone3367 Definitely "Chaisica".
@@ianmanning4368 excellent choice
If this game doesn't win best RPG, Rhythm or Animation in this year's game award, I'm gonna curse all of 2023.
Well for RPGS, Final Fantasy 16 and Sea of Stars come out this year too, so it'll be quite a year for the genre
Pizza Tower and Hogwarts Legacy better also win in this year's game awards, 2023
You know, this game has an awesome soundtrack, and getting the tracks to match up with a lot of the stuff in game is just perfect. The characters are fun, the designs are definitely great, overall a very solid game.
This has BIG early 2000's tv show vibes and I'm *living* for it. Like totally spies, Martin Mystery and really obscure Supa Strikas
Who else would like to see Chai jam out with the characters from No Straight Roads?
They literally do
THEY WOULD HONESTLY
Bro literally my hyper fixations
Craig voices so many W characters. Mirage, Sonic, and now Kale in Hi-Fi Rush what a W voice actor 👏💯
Here's it is!! this is the moment of truth I've been waiting for to see it! Thank you so much for bringing this greatest epic game of all Ever!
Lol, you’re welcome. Thanks for watching the video. 😀

@@armandglenncastiller7900 Hello There
Timestamping places for myself :)
1:33:21 cool cutscene battle
1:45:50 korsica fight
2:43:52 i am a rockstar
The art style is absolutely amazing
I love how everything is synced to the music, even when you walk or stand still.
47:54 that's some nice little evil within reference there
1:40:18 That coffee machine joke was funny by how that’s not to far off to how things are nowadays.
Love your videogame vids! and how you edit them, when I found out about hi-fi rush, I knew that I had to wait for GLP's full movie edit of this game.
I see someone at the company is a Jojo Fan. He/she has my utmost Respect.
I’m using this video as a way to get a large collection of chai photos because I love him
I’d also be pissed if my company’s 2.7 million year streak got broken.
This game is a masterpiece. Beautiful artwork and music, although they never really hyped up the release, which brought unironically more hype when people found out. This is like if Persona 5 Scramble met Rhythm Doctor. But, it would be pretty cool to see a custom mode where you can make your own levels. Nonetheless, this game is too cool to exist.
10/10
We all still want HI-FI Rush sequel😭
It's probably happening. Tango gameworks is back.
@@JoelPerry1 I heard the news that Hi fi rush is comeback!
I love you Krafton ❤️🔥
I can’t believe this was made by the same people that made the evil within! Not that I’m complaining, this is Easily their best work yet!
It was also the last game to be released by Tango Gameworks before the studio’s closure in May 2024.
Like how when the PGR-0101 got blown up at 1:12:28 zanzo's budget instantly got a 200 grand bonus
it was the bot's salary
Also another quote line reference, "You'll have to go through me!" Roqueford: "You wanna get to Kale? You gotta get through me." 2:31:47
22:28 That "Days without Defects" board implys over 27000 years fyi
Game stories are better than most movies these days
I just beat this game 2 days ago.. and it said only 8% of people beat this game.. how? How? HOW? This game is pretty dope with a dope replay after you beat it..
i love how korsica's password was just "password"
3:03:01 i like how korsicas password is just "PASSWORD"
Head of Security, everyone.
I headcannon that Chai’s last name is “Tea”. 😆
Pavitr Prabhakar: WHAT THE F*CK IS HIS NAME!?!?!?!?
My favorite part about the endings is that the password is password lol
the game was pretty dope it’s kinda like a combinition game between persona 5 and no straight road game and also, the titled “Hi-fi rush” almost like “High on Life”😅
but i love it✨
I love it to tears if this game was converted into a movie, keeping the same art and style, just streamlining it into a film-length hilarious adventure.
Reminds me of no straight road meets sunset overdrive.
Not that! it was i say: Soundfall, Devil may cry & No Straight Roads (NSR) meets Candace Of Hyrule. awesome...
@@armandglenncastiller7900 True wish some brutal legends could be added.
Yep, acknowledged.
Omg the scene at 2:22:00 is a parody of Xenogears. Wtf I am loving this
Thank god I wasn't the only one who saw this.
@@gulver8693 it's one of my favorite games. After seeing that I am so sad I can't play this
love this art style, feels very refreshing and like itll age very nicely
This game got a lot of cool use of references known world wide, and that's cool.
I like how it's been 2,7 million years without defects... these guys immortals or something? Since Roxanne Vandelay "built the company from the ground up" and she don't seem that old... XD
Someone needs to make this into a legitimate cartoon!!
Ok now we know for a FACT that some shit's going on between korsica and peppermint based off both the final scenes with the characters
While it is never outright stated, I LOVE how obvious it is that Peppermint at the very least has a massive crush on Korsica, especially during the final cutscene. Even more, I appreciate how it was kept at least a little ambiguous because having ANY characters being openly romantically interested/involved would have been a poor fit with the tone of the game.
47:44 is that Sebastian Castellanos From The evil within series😂😂😂
Yes!
There's an achievement for getting all his dialog "Have we met before?"
Even his name is SE BAA
This was such an amazing game - I love the ending too❤❤❤ thanks for uploading!
2:15:00 right behind roqueforts transformation strangely this is my favorite cutscene in the game i love how the dress unfolds to wings on the beat for some reason and it was the one transformation that actually surprised me
This is such a fun game dude
Kale: "I'm surrounded by idiots!" quote line reference to the afxii videos 2:20:02
such a cool game. we need more of this type 😍
Best Epic Badass Anime Video Game Movie right here! Love this! My Most Favorite Character of this Brand Newest Game is Erica Lindbeck as the Voice of Peppermint!
Words cant describe how badly I need a sequel.
Love how this feels like it would be a great anime too
4:20 at this forward kale did and in fact..... messed up big HAHAHAHAHA
Did not expect Krosica’s voice to sound like that😅
THIS WAS SO AMAZING I can’t wait to fan girl out about this game for the rest of time!!!!
So this is what Brutal Legend would have been like without those tower features. Guitar Legend mixed with Devil May Cry gameplay is freaking awesome!!!
Better than anything Disney made in the last few years.
Curious for all the league of legends players, when the group is all together at the end (don't have timer) they look like a decent team comp
Macaron top lane tank
Cat is suppport yumi ofc
Protagonist sounds like midlane ekko
Peppermint is adc
And korsika is jungle
I love the art style and every characters names based of foods.
THanks for the play!
This is exactly the kind of video I wanted about the game. But I suggest in the future you also tell us that you include minimal gameplay, not just cutscenes.
Yes. You never let down for the videos .
Reminds me a bit of Crypt of the necrodancer but without the 8bit graphics! The whole moving to the beat thing and everything I’m obsessed
37:38 korsica looks strangely like a vtuber in this scene
I really hope Hi-Fi Rush still gets a sequel, even if it’s not under Tango Gameworks
It’s like watching an animated cartoon movie (they should really make a series of this art)
Tec-78 is one of my favorite side characters. Other than that one guy who stacks boxes. He’s also good.
They should make this a animated series frrrr
Need petition
i literally thought Chai was just a little kid cuz he acts alot like so, and so is his design
This game is proof that current developers have talent, but leadership is SEVERELY lacking in the industry.
I had to buy this games after watching the first boss fight
Wait is 808 just Bob?
Just realized immediately that 2:22:00 is a Xenogears reference
47:54 they really added the evil within crew as robots
The fact that the company had been making no defects for
2 724 776 years is insane
2:16:36
Dude holy shit, RHYTHM THIEF?
This was first time in a long time I am jealous of Microsoft. This game and story seems amazing
The xenogears reference got me cry laughing
zanzo be busting out jojo moves the whole time
This needs a sequel
Just to think that the mother and other people in this universe can live so long almost immortal the company had about 2, 7 million years without any defects products that mother of peppermint is at least 2, 7 million years old
1:44:09 practice test vs the actual test
