No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle confirmed for 2010 release

I'm calling it now: Best. Game. Ever.

Oh god! I can't wait that long! I dunno if I can handle two years of blue balls...

I wouldn't change much. A little better graphics, but even those didn't bother me. I for one, absolutely loved the controls with the Wii. I hate the frickin' Wii, but NMH made me love that fuck waggle box, if for only about 20 hours. I love how linear it was, liked that the sandbox environment was "dry" (makes it less distracting to the story), and I liked that it was short so that I actually had time to play it. It could have been about 5 hours longer though and I wouldn't have complained.

I might actually buy a Wii this time around, as oppose to borrowing someone's for a few weeks. That's how much I loved that game...

(Continues to roll around on the ground, orgasming...)

What? I loved how you have to swing the wiimote the direction the arrows faced for the finishing moves...

But now that we're on that topic... the wanking/wiimote-shake to charge the sword? That was annoying, get rid of that.

Use the wiimote plus so we can dash past enemies while slicing them depending with side the wiimote is facing.

Sorry for being such a comment whore but I loved doing the wiimote waking charge. It made me crack up laughing everytime. It did kind of get in the way sometimes, though.

If patience is a virtue, then FUCK VIRTUE! NMH is in the top 3 of games that people (with Wiis, of course) absolutely must own. Okami and NMH 2 (when available) round that out. :)

And if you already have Okami for the PS2, then give your Wii copy to someone else so that they can drool all over it.

Better bike physics. That is all.

If NMH:DS is bigger, has an active "overworld" in the style of GTA, supports classic controller, motion plus, and standard Wii-remote/Nunchuck control schemes, and has visual polish on par with other high profile Wii action games like MadWorld and Moster Hunter 3, then I'd imagine it will be one of the best games ever.

If not, then whatever, it will still kick ass.

That's where our opinions differ, Wack. For me, it's just better bike physics. I loved the blandness of the overworld, cause not only did it poke fun at the monotony of side missions in GTA titles, but it contrasted the fight sequences in a way that was like jumping from cold to hot water. If they could find a way to use that same sort of magic and make the overworld more entertaining for people, awesome.

I just wish I could have felt cooler driving the bike. It LOOKED awesome.

Yea, I never really saw a need to add anything to the overworld even though everyone bitched about it. Nothing else was necessary.

And ya know, I never really had any problems with the bike...

noooooooooooo! i want it now!!!!!! aaaaggghhhh!!! *kicks feet in air* *throws tantrum*

HAIL SUDA! No More Heroes probably ranks in my top ten favorite games of all time. What an original and fresh experience.

Not to mention the storyline, music, and characters were just oozing with personality and creativity.

They should drop the whole overworld thing if they can't do it right. Polish up the graphics a tad and don't censor the EU version and I'm happy.

Make it possible to use the beam katana in the overworld, have better bike physics, and release it next week. It would be the best game ever.

hmm... 2010?

good.

Take your time this time, Suda. Theres no reason for your game to look like a dreamcast game.

I'd add more awesome.
OH WAIT YOU CAN'T.

Fuck yeah NMH D:

Oh, and maybe make the civilians interactable? Like, being able to smack them about?

My soul, it hurts.

I would ask for a few more side-quests, that's all. I managed to complete all the side-quests (and get quite a few gold medals) just before approaching the final rank, so they almost got it perfect.

Agrees with counting conflict. The first one was a let-down for me. I really feel the Wii hurt what could have been a really good game on the 360/PS3.

With the Wii HD pretty much confirmed and I think they would go for a 2009 holiday release with that console, making the game look much better even with the original.

They need to fix the crappy camera & maybe make it less repetitive .

My spleen!

What would I change? Well, I'd either make the overworld actually matter or replace it with a nice menu system like you have in Travis' apartment. A cool bike with shitty handling does not justify an overworld.

Next I'd add more side-jobs and/or side missions that are actually good. Like Yahtzee said in his review, mowing lawns and picking up trash was a lot more fun than all of the assassination missions that were no different than the storyline stages.

I'd also say do something to break up the inevitable monotony that the game falls into, but I'm pretty sure addressing the above two things would fix that and help the game actually achieve its potential.
