"Taking place three years after the end of the first title, No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle sees hero Travis Touchdown embark on a mission of revenge following the murder of his best friend. Featuring improvements to the game engine and graphics, Suda51 also promises a far busier Santa Destroy, much darker tone and also a few surprises to come."

Sounds good -- Though it seems more serious than the first. I'm sure we'll still have the humour though.

I'm just hoping he learns from his mistakes and actually puts some polish into this game instead of releasing what was essentially a beta. Although I'm not going to throw all the blame on Suda because I guarantee Ubisoft rushed it to store shelves. Hopefully they get a better publisher this time around.

Ubisoft didn't rush it. I'm sure they didn't.

The publisher this time is Marvelous and XEED Games -- no longer Ubisoft.

I'm willing to bet it's his cat. You don't mess with a man's kitty and live.

Also, did they announce Pure White Glastonberry II? More levels/more complete as well? That would REALLY help the game out.

Wasn't Ubisoft just the publisher for the NA release? If it was rushed, it happened before Ubi got their grubby little mits on the game.

It's good to know that they're going to be improving the game's engine and graphics. While I liked the first one, I seriously thought it had a lack of polish.

i bet it was jeane, i bet that some guy hit her with his car and drove off, and now travis is gonna kick ass and take names. it can be dark, but be funny because its dark, because a kitty cat died ( which isnt funny, just that the crime could have been accidentaly and its going to be dark or something like that id ont know anymore)

"darker" doesnt necessarily mean "less funny". there is a whole movie subgenre of dark comedies.

I hate mean cats, because I was attacked by one as a kid, anyways, I want this game sooooooo bad, it doesn't matter to me whether it looks better, I loved everything about the first, the violence, cursing, absurd humor, randomness, the obvious satiric city that I feel like was apart of the mockery of sandbox games, this game will rule.

Well then I guess Suda is to blame for releasing a buggy unpolished game. Hopefullly he takes a different approach this time around.

They'll probably do a montage to show you what happen. Just like at the beginning of the first game where it shows Travis and Silvia talking in the bar, and then Travis fighting Helter Skelter.

I don't like how the games set in Santa Destroy again. Can't they set it in a different city!

[spoiler] it alludes to both of them killing each other. neither of them had a way out of fighting forever. instead, they ended it all and went to "paradise" [/spoiler]

M+ a possibility, depending on how it feels after Sud 51 gets ahold of it.

I'm attributing this to the fact that the second game was originally slated for the 360 as well.

not his cat! it was so cute!! well i hope this game doesn't end up taking itself too seriously (although if the "friend" really is Travis' cat, i doubt any truly serious game would start with a cat getting murdered and its owner taking off on an epic journey for revenge.) the dark humor was the greatest part of the first game. drop that and no more heroes is but a mere shell of a game. and if they tried to make the humor any darker, i think the world would explode. lol.

Errrr, I'd be hesitant to take Kotaku's interpretation of what he said at face value. All he said is that he wanted to make the game for the 360 (because of the graphical power) but went with the Wii because of the control scheme. That doesn't mean that they ever originally planned for a 360 release. He seems to be just explaining his choice of the Wii - the motion controls.

Good thing, because this game would lose alot of it's soul on 360, sure it'd be good looking, but it's just purely made for wii, also, it'd be a big fish in a huge shark filled ocean.

No, they have nine. This all sounds good. Although I still need to finish the first one.
