No kidding.

No shitty overworld.

Better level design.

Better boss fights.

Crazy story. Bosses are more hilarious and have more personality.

The writing is better, and it breaks the fourth wall on a regular basis rather than keeping the awesome 4th wall stuff only in the game's ending.

Multiple characters.

Better controls.

Whoever says the first one is better is crazy and or dumb and this is just based off the first few levels.

Both are terrible. Play Killer 7 instead.

It is better than MadWorld at least

Im mainly looking foward to retro minigames, and playing a version with BLOOD

I agree that neither games are even in the shadow of Killer 7.

yeah, at first NMH2 seemed like it would be more of the first game with improvements to the combat and whatnot. Then you slowly begin to realize they replaced the personality and charm from the first game with shit you'd find at hot topic (circa four years ago. I don't think that store still exists.)

Also, they gradually have more and longer stages where you fight cannon fodder enemies. One near the end felt like I was in a coma.

Himu · « **Reply #10 on:** July 15, 2010, 07:03:07 PM »

What charm and personality? NMH1 almost no charm and personality. Bosses are over glorified one-liners. Levels are devoid of any creativity. The only thing I can think of in NMH1 that has "charm" or "personality" is the assassin 5 boss "fight" and the final level and even that's stretching it.

Real talk, No More Himu gaming threads > NHM 1 + 2

There's also a ton of stuff cut from the game, so it just skips all over the place. It's weird.

I dunno. I thought it was highly flawed but still really fun, but I wouldn't call it "charming", because it's not. it didn't really have any charm or personality that's missing in the sequel. If anything, No More Heroes is Killer 7-lite. Go play K7 instead.

I'm gonna start charging people for wasting space on here I SWEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Himu · « **Reply #16 on:** July 15, 2010, 07:18:31 PM »

Because it's better than No More Heroes 1.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #17 on:** July 15, 2010, 07:27:04 PM »

Lepering Himu in the gaming forum is the only solution. Pull the trigger, demi.

I don't know what you're talking about. That's Bebpo. Besides I also like to troll. My trolls should be easy to spot.

The cheerleader/football player fight was awesome. Seeing a group of cheerleaders turn into a giant mecha > *

Is there an nes game that's remotely similar to bug out? because i'd get it. the hang on wannabe is fun.

demi · « **Reply #24 on:** July 15, 2010, 08:57:30 PM »

None that I can think of off hand. It was my favorite game too.

Himu · « **Reply #25 on:** July 15, 2010, 09:22:07 PM »

Bug Out owns but the steak one is great too.

The mall parking lot

Also, taking out camera control was idiotic.

Himu · « **Reply #28 on:** July 15, 2010, 10:06:51 PM »

I didn't use camera controls in NMH. Well, what's the point of camera controls? You can't control the camera when fighting and you can't explore the city anymore.

lordoftherink · « **Reply #29 on:** July 15, 2010, 10:10:30 PM »

In the first game you could use left/right on the dpad to adjust the camera when not locked on to an enemy. Was helpful especially in enclosed areas, at least I found it helpful. Taking it out isn't gamebreaking or anything like that, it just didn't make any sense to me why they didn't leave it in.

bork · « **Reply #30 on:** July 15, 2010, 11:45:44 PM »

It's nice to be able to play this game with the classic controller. Then you've got the PS3/360 ports of the original with the same controls. No more waggle garbage.

Himu · « **Reply #31 on:** July 16, 2010, 12:07:28 AM »

motion controls aren't an issue with nmh controls. man up

bork · « **Reply #32 on:** July 16, 2010, 12:51:58 AM »

Yuck. I'm glad I waited so I can play both games with a pad.

this game needs an hd port. or i could just steal my parents' wii for a weekend.

nah, i'll just wait for the hd port instead of dirtying up my TV's component-ins with electro-aids.

Yeah, it will probably be a while if they do it. They still haven't released NMH2 on Wii in Japan yet.
