Jonathan Holmes just posted his review of No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle and to call it glowing would be an understatement. I have to agree, as I've been having a hell of a good time with it myself.
If you're still not sold on how good this game is and need some visual stimulation, why not check out the first ten minutes of the game? There's some combat, some story and a little fourth-wall breakage. All pretty good stuff. There's a bit of language, though, so you might not want to watch it at work.

Enough with the cotton. Jesus, how did this happen? Where in the marketing chain of command was it decided that cotton is like crack for destructoid readers? Wouldn't a more logical thing to advertise be, I don't know... games? Or is this an automatic advertisement that you guys have no control over.
There is never a good reason to break the fourth wall, even if your trying to be funny. It's absolutely terrible. The only time I found it successful was in a scene from Scrubs where they pretended to.
if you're complaining about fourth wall breaking in NMH2 then you obviously haven't played through the entirety of the first. it worked just as well in that one :V
@ Reien- Other than the narration in the begging, and the cell phone calls, I don't think they do it too much in NMH1. NMH2, I believe it's just at the beginning.
I hope you like NMH1. If not, don't write off NMH2. Other than the combat and the general flow, they're pretty different games.
@Holmes
Its just not the look! The stance, The grip of the sword. the sword itself(well the idea of it resembles it) The Emo-factor to say. Fighting for someone who Travis killed close to him. (aka. Sephiroth=Travis?) yeah...Cloud got Whacked.. >XD
After playing a good bit, it seems that Suda and Co. decided to make a game that's simply entertaining this time around rather than one that makes you think, confuses you, or messes with your mind. Some of the charm left when they decided to do this, I think.
Am I just being ornery for no reason? It's a great game, but I just miss some of the little touches from NMH 1.
Nice post man. Thanks a lot for the kind of perfect topic I have not a lot of information about it but I have got an extra unique info in your unique post.

This blog seems to get a great deal of visitors. How do you promote it? It offers a nice individual twist on things. I guess having something authentic or substantial to post about is the most important thing. lebanon flowers || deliver flowers to brazil

Oh, and also, that was a funny fight.
At least it's better than Japan where oddly for a Japanese game they haven't even got a fucking release date.
Near the end. "We're not gonna be satisfied until you do! {looks to the game player for affirmation} Right?"
And it was fucking delicious.
Well that was a great way to spend time waiting for pizza. Great wall breaker there at the end.
Well into my second playthrough on bitter difficulty. Still loving this game.

.......Dude just killed Cloud....LONG Over due??? >XD
Jesus, remind me to stop typing comments in between TvC matches.
@ Sora- Yeah, you think he looks like Cloud too? There are a lot of people that think it's "just a coincidence".
