No More Heroes, like its protagonist Travis Touchdown, is a bit of an odd duck nearly 12 years removed from its original Wii launch. His creator Goichi Suda (Suda 51) marches to the beat of his own drum, as does his company, Grasshoppe...

Although Travis Strikes Again isn't a traditional No More Heroes game per se, it still steps up to the plate with weirdness. This 15 minute playthrough from Nintendo Minute should get you up to speed if you've been ignoring it so ...

Killer 7 kind of just came out on PC recently out of nowhere. After marinating on the GameCube and PS2 for the last 13 years, Capcom opted to go for a PC edition with the help of NIS America's publishing efforts. Fandom recently had the cha...

No More Heroes 2 came out nearly nine years ago, and since then outside of a remake of the original, the series has been mostly dormant. A Switch-only top-down action game isn't exactly what people had in mind for the third game, but given ...

Over the last decade, gaming auteur Suda51 has become a force to be reckoned with. His games have subverted standard video game tropes and provided some of the zaniest and most esoteric experiences around. Pick any random title from his cat...

Earlier this year, Suda 51 was hinting at the possibility of Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes receiving a physical release. While the answer was a firm "maybe," it seems some kind of magic happened as the game has turned up on Amazon.co...

Announced only last month, Let it Die's PC port will be ready for download on September 26, 2018. The Steam page is currently available if you'd like to wishlist the game. As is common with most PC ports, the game will be supporting higher ...

The only thing more diverse than Grasshopper Manufacture's library of games is their fan base. In the time since Suda51 left Human Entertainment, the game studio responsible for the first Fire Pro Wrestling and Clock Tower games, he's creat...

After Holmes' big interview with Suda51 at PAX East this year, we haven't really heard a lot about Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes. The game is supposedly shaping up okay, but I don't think anyone expected it to release so soon. Announ...

In part 2 of our PAX East 2018 interview with Suda51, we get into stuff that only Suda super-fans will probably care about. Among other things, we talk about what Jessica Nigri has been up to lately, James Gunn name dropping Suda on the Gu...

We posted the exclusive news about No More Heroes: Travis Strikes Again's adventure mode last week, but we never got to post the video where that news originated from. So here is part one of it! Thanks to Gordan Freeman for getting it edit...

It's an improbable comeback but also a thematically-appropriate one. Two video games that directly reference death in their titles have combined to give some sort of new life to the elder one. As a celebration of Grasshopper Manufacture's 2...

Killer is Dead isn't as fondly remembered as other games in Grasshopper Manufacturer's portfolio, but it's still a Suda 51 joint, and I always loved that its assassin protagonist was named Mondo Zappa. That's real good! As part of the Humbl...

The 25th Ward was an episodic sequel to Suda 51 and Grasshopper Manufacture's first title, The Silver Case. It was only released on now-obsolete flip phones in three chapter sets of five episodes apiece. Since The Silver Case was...

One of the gimmicks on the Nintendo Switch is the ability to split the controller in half for instant multiplayer action. A bunch of games allow you to play with a single Joy-Con and apparently Travis Strikes Again will do just the same. In...

Well, Nintendo had a bombshell up their sleeve with this one for their Nindies Summer Showcase. As revealed on-stream, Suda 51 and Grasshopper Manufacture are stepping back into the world of No More Heroes with Travis Strikes Again: No More...

[Update: Grasshopper Manufacture has confirmed that the two bonus episodes from The Silver Case's PS4 port will be available on Steam for free come May 30th] Japanese developer Grasshopper Manufacture is doubling down on obscure remasters l...

Suda51 talked vaguely about a new Travis Touchdown game -- the lead character from the Wii's No More Heroes -- at Nintendo's Switch conference. The best news, though, for those of us who haven't been as thrilled with recent Grasshopper game...

No More Heroes really shook up the action space. Although I prefer the sequel's 2D retro minigames over the first's "job" system, the original really nailed it when it came to characterization. It has some of the best bosses in gaming,...

Ever since it dropped, I've been poring over every little detail of Let it Die. It's a strange beast, with tutorial messages at every turn for the first few hours, many of them facilitating back into the microtransaction scheme. It's defini...

Well, how about that! Let it Die is out on PS4 right now, as revealed at the PSX conference earlier today. While some of us expected this free-to-play joint to be delayed it's very real, and yes, it's very Suda. I mean, right at the st...

One of the weirder promotional tie-ins can be found in id Software's RAGE from 2011. For some reason, Blake Griffin (from the LA Clippers) campaigned to be featured in the title and wound up getting a bobble head in the game. I hadn't heard...

With The Silver Case finally being released outside of Japan, I figured it was never to early to look ahead and see what Goichi Suda's thoughts on the future were in a short one-on-one interview with the gaming icon at Tokyo ...

If there was ever a game to be on the fence about, it's a PC remake of a 1999 PlayStation release -- for a lot of you out there, based on the screens alone, The Silver Case is going to be a hard sell. But fear not, as Suda51's cla...

I'm always curious to hear what creators do to recharge mentally, whether it's going on nature hikes, gardening, working up a sweat at the gym, or just sneaking in a quick midday nap, and how those hobbies might directly or even indirectly...
