For Real, What Is Even Happening in This Killer Is Dead Trailer?

@dangerloves said:

Funny you should say that, because Suda51 and Takashi Miike are actually good friends. Miike actually voiced a character in No More Heroes 2, for one scene.

What consensus? I played both Shadows of the Damned and Lollipop Chainsaw and enjoyed them both.

You know their attempt at titillation might be more effective if the characters werent jaggie saturated blurs. Japan might be used to pixelated porn but I have standards!

@paparoach: The original song was called Summertime and its been remixed a bunch of times, like Herbie Mann's bossa nova version and Sublime's "Doin' Time" remix. Can't find the version they used here though.

...and then he went to The Moon because why not.

What'e the name of this song? It's pretty awesome

Suda is horrible, all his games are the worst with terrible mechanics. I feel like the only reason he gets away with it is because his stories are so incomprehensible that they must be "art".

I like the part where they are suddenly ON THE FUCKING MOON. More moon assassins, please!

As with every Suda game, I will be playing it, for better or worse. I will fully support any weird ass video games anyone wants to put out (see also: Zeno Clash). Gotta say, I definitely like the art style of this game, at the very least.

Gib meeeh.

Was that a white house on the moon? Oh Suda you so crazy!

I swear I can never tell what parts of this guy's games is meant as a joke, a parody, a satire or a straightfaced attempt at cool.

There would normally be a statement here to say "but I really like them" or something, but nope, I got nothing else. That's it.

B(o)(o)bs!! I'm in!

I gotta tell ya I thought it was a pretty damn awesome trailer. The art style, music, and the visual of a man in a suit running across the moon hooked me.

"It didn't take long to get the moon"

I literally laughed out loud. I just love how all of the sudden they just say that and are suddenly on the moon. The game is nuts and I am sure I won't play it, but it certainly makes for some fun trailers.

@demoskinos: If someone did make those arguments against the game why do you think they'd be precious or overblown?

Sex sells.

@swordcery: All his games involving assassins are surprise candidates for GOTY. Wish this one had the Revengeance cutting tech.

Oh great, another console-only game I have to buy this year. >:|

Brilliant!

Deep Silver is my new friend :)

Saints Row 4

Killer is Dead

I like Dead Island

I. This. What? Maybe. But he. And they. This is. I don't. SUDAAAAAAAAAA

Also, what the hell, Deep Silver? And is the first VA in this trailer Sawashiro Miyuki?

my favorite part about that whole trailer is the remixed and slowed down version of Sublime's song Doin' Time.

So...porn? Followed by moonwalking.

I hope there'll be a special edition, i'll buy the hell out of it. :)

The Saints officially decline to comment on the implication that we are less classy, as we are too classy to make a big deal out of it.

I'm all for Suda's weirdness, and I can tolerate the endless spouting of fourth-wall non-sequiturial bullshit from the mouth of every character, but his "I will kill everything in my path because I want to FUCK THAT GIRL! WOO TITS! Oh, wait, she was actually manipulating me and is really trying to kill me? STILL WANT TO FUCK HER THOUGH!" shtick has worn real thin for me.

This is like Japan's version of Saints Row 3, but more classier. Grasshopper, you cool cat, you!

MONDO GIRLS!

Wait, seriously, what the fuck did I just watch? That looked more like some crazy 80s anime than a game lol

I can't wait for this game. Both to play it and to see all the precious overblown arguments about "sexisim" that its going to stir up with the "Gigolo Vision" mode. I've not really even followed this but I don't have to Suda is involved so I'll enjoy the hell out of it just like I did Lollipop Chainsaw last year.

So... Endurance Run?

When I first started playing Killer 7, I knew damn well that the game was going to make no sense from start to finish, and while it explained SOME things, for the most part, I was right. I accepted that fact right away and was able to enjoy the game's weirdness, and I think that's the mentality I'm going to take going into this game.

I dunno, I feel this probably told us a lot about that game. As weird as that may be.

cool Ella Fitzgerald

I don't know...the ladies riding the syringes was kind of titillating. I know Suda is capable of more than just whacked, though

Wow, that trailer actually turned me off from this game. Bummer. Oh well, it's not like it's the only game out there :P

It seems like a very logical game.

I like crazy.

Is Gigolo Glass Google Glass' competitor?

I give this game a Killer 7 out of 10

I haven't played Shadows or Lollipop yet, but the consensus seems to be that Suda51 has kind of fallen off lately. But this looks very much in the vein of his classics.

Kind of looks like he just made No More Heroes 3 but with a different protagonist. Who knows? Might be cool. I'll follow the development. Hopefully it plays a little better than NMH. Much as I like those games, I found them pretty rough around the edges, gameplay-wise.

Any other developer, this would be seen more of the shameless and juvenile sexist content plaguing the industry. Kotaku would have at least six click-bait articles on this trailer alone.

Thankfully, Suda 51 gets a pass. Because he's fucking awesome.

It's possible that trailer told you everything about that game.

Reminds me of when I used to get high and watch weird stuff...*sigh*...I kind of wish I was high.

After watching follow these simple steps:

Shake your head slowly back and forth, stop and take a deep breath, let out a befuddled sigh, try constructing a coherent thought, give up and start shaking your head again. Repeat as needed.

Gigolo Glass is the natural evolution of the google glasses.

Yup, sure looks like a Suda 51 game. Bet I'll play it and enjoy it quite a bit.
