    This could make or break this game for me, because I can guarantee I would to go through it again will fully specced out guns. I believe both NMH games has this.

    I game on PC so the console systems kinda confuse me 
     
    "New Game +" to me sounds like when you hit "new game" and start a new playthrough.. no ?

    @Ahmad_Metallic: New game+ is when you start a new game, but retain upgrades and other such things from a previous playthrough.

    @Ahmad_Metallic: No new game + is starting a new game but you get to bring all of your end game stats *like max health + weapons with you.

    It's a piss easy way to double the replay value so I do not understand why its ever omitted.

    Yup, it's a bummer. Also: achievments don't stack i.e. if you finish the game on normal you don't get the points for finishing it on easy. Dumb.

    You're right, so I don't understand why people complain about a lack of it. I think it's great when its there because it does encourage replay value, but honestly it is far from being a standard inclusion.

    @kidman: alright, there's no excuse for that one

    @Hzaife: I think it's great, humor is very.. suda-like. A little bit of jank here and there, but nothing major. UT engine texture loading thing but that's it. Not frustrating but challenging (just like Alex said in his review).

    Love Johnson.

    It only makes sense that it's not a very popular design choice, simply because 90% of video games are built to match the player's experience. The beginning levels being simple and easy and tutorial-ish where you have little to no weapons/gadgets, and it starts building up from there

    that explains why the achievement for beating easy mode is rarer than the one for normal.

    the lack of both achievement stacking and NG+ is disappointing.

    I took a leap of faith and bought the PS3 version to get the pre-order bonus. How is the anti-aliasing in the PS3 version?

    Ugh that sucks a big dick. As a singleplayer-only game it is a crime against humanity to not include NG+, secret stuff and a Master Ninja difficulty.

    So, do the achievements like "get ____ kills with ______ weapon" not stack either?

    Well, they can't really stack because they're for different weapons. I know it's only an upgraded version but still, it gets a new name and everything so I guess they consider it different.

    I know new game + is hardly standard fare in video games in general, but it seemed to be in Suda games. Also in Mikami games. So I just assumed. 
     
    So it's definitely a huge bummer.

    I honestly haven't noticed any aliasing or framerate issues, hell, I haven't even seen any of the Unreal texture pop in jank yet.
