Jonathan Holmes writes: As the Wii version is pretty easy to find for around $10, it's hard to recommend this mixed bag of an update, knowing that the less buggy original is $30 cheaper. If you're one of those people who really, really doesn't want to own a Wii for some reason, but still wants to play No More Heroes, then go ahead and give this game a rent. Compared to other PS3 titles, it looks a lot like a Wii game, and anyone expecting a GTA-like overworld will disappointed beyond words with Santa Destroy, but there are still plenty of amazing moments here if you're willing to spend the time and energy it takes to find them. As for those who have played the original, how much you enjoy this HD remake depends a lot on how much you value shiny-jacket and/or abdominal muscle graphics, and how well you can tolerate repeatedly getting your motorcycle stuck in palm trees. That's something you probably can't be sure of until you play the game for yourself.
It's game time!, or is it hacking and slashing time? Doesn't matter! Enjoy the best hack and slash games on the Xbox 360
Ninja Gaiden 2 was never multiplat. NG Sigma 2 is a remixed game not the same game at all
Dante's inferno... such a great GoW inspired game. So sad the sequel was canned, it sounded like it was going to be even more epic than the first.
Yeap, classic GoW is still better mechanically. But the aesthetics and atmosphere of Dante's Inferno were just top-notch. Shame it never got a PC port, but at the very least is available on modern Xbox.
I just can’t get into the devil may cry series. In my opinion you never feel powerful in those games. The guns are pointless as they only serve to be a flashy part of a combo. DMC was the only one that I could tolerate long enough to beat.
Justin Scerbo (@ZeroSkerbo) breaks down No More Heroes in 60 seconds!
GameZone: "Released for the Wii in North America in 2008, the bloody, foul-mouthed, pervy action game No More Heroes brought something vastly different to Nintendo's happy little family-friendly console. The game was eventually ported to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 as No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise, though we only got the PlayStation 3 version in North America. It's a hell of a ride, no doubt, even if it's not without a handful of hindrances."
This one I never got the hype for. It was fun, but it became very repetitive very quickly. Travis is a fun character though. I'd definitely like see more of him someday. But first, Killer7 sequel! Make it happen Suda51!
Yeah after the demo this is I think a generous score. Might be just my opinion though.
