No More Heroes

[Gone Mad]

Didn't see a thread about it, so here you go.

It's only on Wii and comes out this Tuesday. It's about a hitman who's trying to make it to the top... along with collecting some cash so he can buy video games.

Wasn't a fan of Suda51's other game, Killer7, but this one looks interesting.

Your thoughts?

[Destor]

Looking foward to this, I'll wait to here some feedback and I'm sure I'll rent it before I buy though...

[Kapoutman]

Gonna buy it as soon as it comes out.

[CSL]

Fuck, when I read the title I thought this was in the TV forum.

Thank fuck

[Indifferent Clox]

loved killer7

It's not on my "I really got to have it list," but if it gets good reviews, I'll consider getting it.

[Dave Youell]

This is on top of my list, it’s not out till 29th Feb over here, it’s the closest I’m likely to get to a GTA game on the Wii

And the fact you have a lightsaber rip off makes it’s all the sweeter

Plus those graphics looks really unique

[Dorkchop]

I got Twilight Princess for my birthday, but I already own it so I'll probably trade it in for this. I probably would have bought this anyway. It looks pretty unique (I liked Killer 7).

I don't think is even close to GTA. I think the only similarity is that it's an open world. I don't think there are people walking on the streets or anything like that.

From what I've seen, if you want a GTA-type game on Wii, your best bet is Godfather: Blackhand Edition, but I judge this only from what I saw on On The Spot a few months ago.

Gonna go get later today so I'll review it prob tomorrow. Gametrailers just reviewed the game and if you live in the US, consider yourselves abit luckier. We get the uncensored version. UK, Japan get the censored with black clouds instead of blood... supposedly.

I really liked Game Trailers' review of the game. For the most part, I usually agree with their reviews.

Gamespot gave it a 9.0, but then again Gamespot kind of sucks sometimes.

I'll pick it up whenever it makes it into Canada. No one seems to know when exactly that will be. I've heard Feb 1.

[Kapoutman]

Yeah, I asked a couple of stores in Montreal, nobody knows when we'll get it.

[Dorkchop]

I've been told Feb 1 by my friend who works at EB.

[tuney41]

the game has been getting good review scores

[Mike the Metal Ed]

the game has been getting good review scores
ok :)

[Gone Mad]

Well, I was hoping to have it by now but no one seems to have or even know what it is. And yeah, pretty good reviews on it so far with the weakest being IGN giving it a 7.8 out of 10. Gonna try to look for it at the Best Buy near my job today.

Here's the best review so far is from G4tv, even though I'm kind of "meh" about their reviews:

Got the game yesterday.

The fighting engine is a lot of fun, but sometimes the enemies can really gang up on you. Luckily there is a lot of multi-kill hits. Nothing beats swiping the wii remote like a sword slash, only to have travis behead some guy with a shogun assassian like blood spurt.

The GTA world and bike missions SUCK. i really hate using the bike to get around. it brings the game down a whole point. if they ditched the overworld, I bet this game would have gotten even higher reviews.

I'm currently working on Killer Number 8.

[Dorkchop]

I can't wait to play this game when Canada finally gets it next week (hopefully). It'll be a nice change from the quirky DS and GBA games I've been playing lately (I've been playing God of War 2 too, but not nearly as much as any of my DS games).

[Gone Mad]

Finally found it yesterday at Best Buy and the last copy too. The guy there was like "we finally got that in? Whoa." and had to break it to him it was the last one.

Anyways, an hour and a half in it, I'm loving it. It's GTA with a different style. Sure, it's almost empty but would you wanna stay in a town where it's filled with killers? The fighting, I am SO digging the fighting even if I'm trying to get in the habit of swinging when I'm not supposed to.

But the style, the look, and Travis help make this game worth it. Not to mention one boss fight in, I can't wait to get into another. Get it.

I bought the game last night, just reached spot #7. Incredibly bad ass game. Reminds me alot of Godhand, and I enjoy that.

[.44 Magdalene]

Also, the various wrestling references make me giggle.

[Shadow]

I hated Destroyman. Not so much because he was hard to beat or anything just that I hated his punk ass.

At least it was satisfiying watching him get split in twain.

[.44 Magdalene]

I hated that he kept no-selling my god damn laser sword by spamming his elaborate charge attacks.

[Shadow]

I circled around him and just waited for the Destroy Spark to stop sparking. Then I fucking German Suplexed his ass into oblivion.

[Bricktop]

Destroy man was awesome. Crazy fuck mailman.

Destroyyyyyyyyyyyy buster.

I'm on rank fight number 4
