No More Heroes week!

I must say that despite the fact I think the game looks awesome, it looks too atypical for Grasshopper. Where's the weird takes on tried and true gameplay mechanics? Maybe they made it more stream lined to appeal to Mr. everyday Joe Shmoe! Whatever, it looks awesome.

I'm sure this game will still contain the daily recommended value of "Quirk".

Here's hoping!

Wow, this will probably be available tomorrow too... Maybe I'll pick this up instead of Lost Odyssey...

I think it'll be as creepy story wise as killer 7. controls might not be amazing but it might be for the better since some people had problems with killer 7's controls.

and why the fuck did sporks lock the No More Heroes website thread? Just wanted to flex some mod muscle Im assuming

the controls actually look pretty good imo, and the gameplay style looks similar to God Hand, which is a really, really good thing.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #9 on:** December 04, 2007, 05:51:43 AM »

I've never played god hand but I've heard that comparison before. Is this going to be in NA within the next couple weeks? I'll probably see some reviews by then if it duds somehow but I don't like waiting 6 months for them to translate it.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #10 on:** December 04, 2007, 06:09:07 AM »

all the dialogue is already in english, its slated for NA release 6th Feb.

yeah just noticed, I dont even get the reason for locking the thread.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #17 on:** December 05, 2007, 03:19:34 AM »

from what Ive deduced its becuase it was called the 'official website update thread' but people were posting some stuff from gametrailers. OMG complete derailment, he really saved the forum from certain destruction there

Reminds me of the Super Smash Bros Brawl update thead. You can only talk about the website updates, you can't talk about the game OMG!!!!!!

OK, that is getting beyond stupid. I can kinda see the point beyond not supporting or mentioning the Cashwhore or Eidos stuff, but censoring words like "Kane" and "Tomb," and then locking threads for a Gamevideos link is just...

just...

...I think the best word that fits here is "GAF."

to add insult to injury, Sporks has now created his own 'No More Heroes Impressions' thread, with no actual fucken impressions of his own. He needs to be de-modded, stat

I'm not sure why, but No More Heroes always reminds me of the gameplay in Grasshopper's Blood+ PS2 game.

Error2k4 · « **Reply #25 on:** December 05, 2007, 06:32:02 PM »

lyte, where are your impressions?

bork · « **Reply #26 on:** December 05, 2007, 07:52:31 PM »

Yeah, sp0rsk' "impressions" thread just made me shake my head. At least now I know there's no blood in the J-version.

But you know what? It's not worth bothering with. Drop the GAF shit and let's concentrate ON THIS FORUM.

I'll be getting the game today. It's Thursday morning right now; Thursday is actually new game release day in Japan (most of the time), but there are a few shops in the Tokyo area that break the street date and sell stuff on Wednesday. None of the shops in Kanazawa will do this...last Wednesday I was at my usual shop and saw a big box behind the counter with all the new games for Thursday. But there was no way they were selling them then. :'(

The Sceneman · « **Reply #27 on:** December 05, 2007, 10:55:46 PM »

the ign write ups are worth checking out if youre after impressions, they are pretty detailed (and positive!)

bork · « **Reply #28 on:** December 06, 2007, 04:26:01 AM »

Okay, I have the game! It came with a little metal keychain of the main character's sword.

Let me jump in, play some, and I'll be back here with impressions.
