It's Hard To Argue With This No More Heroes 2 Trailer

Take a look at this Desperate Struggle.

No More Heroes wasn't a perfect game. It was rough around the edges. It was beautiful in some spots, an absolute mess in others. For me, that was part of its charm. The game's shortcomings almost seemed deliberate.

Of course, for a lot of people, all of that stuff was completely infuriating and made the game pretty much unplayable. But there's a new trailer out for the upcoming sequel, No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle. So it's time to ask yourself: Are you willing to give Suda's weird world of fake lightsabers and assassins another chance?

I'd argue that the trailer makes a pretty compelling argument in favor of playing the final product when it's finally released.

  


Where's the argument, you ask? Well, featuring a real human dressed up like a wrestler makes a pretty firm case. The guy that throws his woman at Travis Touchdown like they were patio furniture certainly has a thing or two to say, as well. And I can't immediately think of another game that features the word "preggers." All in all, the whole thing just looks weird in a way that I can't help but get behind.

Ubisoft is expected to announce plans to publish NMH2 stateside at E3 next week.

Looks absolutely crazy. Hoping for more sexual innuendos.

This is why the gaming industry needs a few nutjobs like Suda 51 around.  It keeps everyone else on their toes.  Sure, his games sometimes work as if he forgot to actually try and, you know, play them before they were released, but when you experience one of his games, you really experience it.  I've yelled at his games in frustration, but I've never yawned or said "meh" once.

You know I was originally hoping to see some Motion Plus in there, but... ah.. I dunno, I suppose I really did enjoy the combat of the original plenty fine. Good to see the bosses are only getting f'n crazier. That's all I really want. (Maybe a better overworld set-up, as well. Yeah definitely that.) But mostly the crazier bosses. (Hooker Toss... is that a concept page, yet?)

Also, I really love NMH's theme song... that was an interesting rendition of it there in that video. I'm sold.

I'm not really sure what to think about this.  I really enjoyed the first game and went through completing everything, including all the side missions (some more boring than others).  Overall, while the story and action were fun, the game holds absolutely no replay value for me and that makes it a difficult purchase.  I suppose there are the side missions and upgrading all your weapons but if you do that while going through the game, what's the point afterwards?  It has sat on my friend's shelf since I beat it.  I guess I'll wait to see how the final product looks and how the reviews are.
