QUOTE(sihumchai @ Feb 5 2008, 10:46 AM) NMH was supposed to be a 360 title. Heh.  he started off the interview by saying he was mildly disappointed that they couldn't do HD graphics because of the hardware but in the end, IMO i think the art style and character design really came through big time for the game.... and since he is still onboard for fatal frame wii development, he hasn't givenn up on the console entirely.  |

anyone got their legit copy of this game yet? i couldn't find it anywhere in singapore cos of the ban but decided to still ask some of the retailers.
the funny thing is, instead of informing me that the game is banned there they just tell me in a whisperly voice that it's out of stock or they don't have that game. hahaha, kinda like a taboo..........  has GH/djinn stock arrive yet?  |

ouch, talk about being blunt and brute.....i just got back with my copy of the game too, the previews did look like killer7 graphics, i wonder if it's done on the same engine? aiya ya, at least the off-beat characters will keep me interested.
 http://kotaku.com/356877/no-more-heroes-do...etter-in-europe kotaku reported that this game is selling better in US than it did in JP, this plus better-than-expected sales of the recent Umbrella Chronicles means we should see more from the likes of Suda and Capcom on the platform, hooray! |

QUOTE(coriandery @ Feb 17 2008, 12:58 PM) I bought it from you yesterday. The overworld map is terrible, the graphics are awful (looks like Killer 7's poor sister), and some of the jobs you have to do to make money are WTF? Carrying coconuts? Mowing the lawn? i see what you mean about the overview maps now, hahaha! it's certainly intentional and seems to be pretty prevalent in grasshopper studios game, like Contact for the DS.But the actual combat (the main gist of the game) is brilliant.  So much fun. And so bloody. I like!i'm addicted to travis' world now..... got to find those hidden t-shirts! |

QUOTE(coriandery @ Feb 18 2008, 12:34 AM) I should mention I don't have any problems with the art direction. I like all the 8-bit style icons and sound effects, and I like the way the characters are drawn and everything. But you see the frame rate drop when going around town, the terrible wall and floor textures, the way textures clash or break into each other, and it's shocking. PS1-grade. But other times it looks great. The character design is great, the voice acting is wonderful. i did watch the trailer at travis' apartment, so funny to heard how travis and helter sketler have swapped voices.....If you watch the first No More Heroes trailer on Travis's TV in his house... it's incredible. *That* is how No More Heroes should've looked like. I'm sure that's how it would've turned out if Grasshopper had more money. speaking of voices, the VO talent are excellent, after all kris zimmerman is the one at the helm (VO director behind MGS1-4/Eternal Darkness). The trailer just look outrageous, pretty much like the what you would expect from cutscenes but a bit too far-fetched to expect that in gameplay. Call me biased but given Suda51 track record, anymore money spent on the game would be far too risky, later he might just end up selling toilet paper for real given the sales figures now.

anyone else finds the batting challenge a little tricky to pull off? granted they ripped it straight off from Wii sports but it's way tougher for me to score a strike here....

err.....not really a fan of hers but where on the page does it says she is cos-playing sylvia? frankly i think the model they hired on launch day in japan is better...... she has to be, she is there to sell the game!!
http://kotaku.com/gaming/suda51/mini+skirt...mers-331771.php just don read the ones about the b/w manual us english gamers got! |

should be during the free-roaming gameplay during santa destory......if you flip thru our 'lame' b/w manuals, you will find there is a move to hit your katana on the ground to look for treasures, dunno if it has to be locked or upgraded before doing so...........

just passed rank no.7, the cutscene with destroyman is just plain hiralous.... thanks to the great voiceovers.
btw, does the different beam katana from dr.naomi have any differences apart from a different animation when firing up the saber? dr.naomi is hot !!! This post has been edited by why_79: Feb 24 2008, 04:30 PM |

someone on another forum said he liked NMH except the end, i hoped this won't happen with me too.........
i guess there is a twist in store at the end just like killer7..........  Added on February 26, 2008, 10:49 pmanyone got any tips on how to stun the enemies before pulling a wrestling move? hammering the B button doesn't seem to do any good and i always end up with a poor score on the wrestling move only challenge.....

QUOTE(ngpeng @ Mar 1 2008, 06:57 PM) Finished the game today. The 2nd Ranking Fight was the toughest for me. What was yours? Yeah 2nd battle was a toughie, fell for the little girl crying trick a couple of times..... now trying to earn enough cash to face #1. Toughest fight for me would be victor the magician, his magic tricks are just too much for me ! I like facing no.3, speed buster.....totally unexpected and totally suda51! |

ok, i will keep things spoiler-free for the benefit of all,
well there is a 'real' ending aside from the standard ending but i don't know what kinda criteria u have to meet in order to unlock it..... the last fight is a little weird, the game doesn't take itself seriously all the way till the end when things suddenly get serious and a little grim..... and i don't understand why they need to have a twist just to shock the gamers.  and what happened to the dude who interrupt boss fight #4? i always thought he will appear again later on towards the game..... and i also thought helter skelter was a little wasted as a character, he looks like one cool cat. |

QUOTE(Johnathan Sia @ Apr 13 2009, 11:37 AM) Found that the battles weren't really as hard as I imagined.... some are hard to break down but after awhile, found out how to beat each of the bosses - even the grindy ones like boss battle 2,1 & true ending boss. knocked off the level 1 boss and the true ending boss spending only about 20 minutes or less for each of them. have u tried hard mode? the boss battles are no cake walk there.... still wondering if i can beat bad girl and who ever it is at no.1 rank.Most invaluable technique? A charged up beam attack and possession of the MkIII :-) btw is the tsubaki III really worth it? i bought it only because i want to see the real ending this time but shelf it right away cos the baby sucks battery life like crazy! |
