    YOU SAVE BY TAKING A SHIT

     
    I was a big fan of the style, story and ambition of Suda51's first title on Gamecube and PS2: Killer 7 so I was watching out for this No More Heroes. Keep in mind I thought the gameplay in Killer 7 was ass shat but the story and atmosphere kept me going through the terrible controls like a Double Fine title. 
     
    No More Heroes is a throwback to the real freaks. Otaku city, baby. The anti hero story is hilarious and badass. The gameplay is campy as fuck with all the old school sound effects and graphics mixed in. Suda51 has a sense of style that reminds me of Tarantino, he knows what he likes in video games, like he's a huge fan of the classic shit, and all those elements bleed through his games. It feels like the game was made for my generation and it's weird realizing you are part of a big demographic now. Makes me feel old....BUT BADASS OLD!! 
     
    Anyways, the gameplay could be better. The fighting system is cool but shit gets repetitive at times and some of the mini games reek of busy work. But hell like i said just like double fine games this shit has so much style and humor that you will play it to the end despite it's shortcomings. I cannot wait for the sequel and I am glad a sequel is coming out.  
     
     BUY AND SUPPORT SHIT LIKE THIS, BITCH!

       No More Heroes was a blast from start to finish. There were real surprises, huge laughs, and gory fun. Hack and Slashers tend to bore me towards the end, but this one didn't and it's twice as long as most Hack and Slashers. It does have faults, mostly the world map and somewhat boring level designs. The positives clearly outweigh the bad, so the No More Heroes is clearly going to stick with me for a while. ----------Battle System---------- No More Heroes is a no frills Hack and Slasher. Th...

      No More Heroes(Wii) by cjcox on April 17, 2010

      I'm  just going to come right out and say it, I love No More Heroes. I especially loved the humour of the game.  The hilarious dialog and antics by the main character Travis Touchdown give the game just some of it's charm. Travis uses an obvious light saber rip-off called the "Beam Katana" which must be recharged from time to time. To recharge, Travis emulates a masturbating motion, and the player must wave the Wii Remote in the same fashion. Save points are toilets. Travis pulls down his pants,...
