Buy No More Heroes Campaign

In Feb. 2008 No More Heroes will be released. Even Though this tiltle will be greatly over shadowed by SSBB, this is going to be a hell of a title. I know i haven't played it but i read, seen, and watched articles, pictures and videos of this game.This game looks amazing and its one of those rare hardcore rated M game for the beloved Wii. YOU should support this game by buying it. I really want a sequel to be created, or if not a sequel anothr Hard core mature or teen game for the wii. Please leave you comments below and tell me if you plan to buy it or not. If you don't plan to buy it please tell me why. ( I am not saying to pick it over SSBB)

I'm not going to buy it because it looks like a standard beat-em-up wrapped in an obnoxious "look how badass this is! seriously, it's badass, we swear!" attitude. It's trying too hard, and just comes off as juvenile IMO. And the main character looks and acts like he just walked off the set of Jackass...

"If I get to #1, will you do it with me?" - did a 13 year old boy write this?

Sorry, if I'm being too harsh; maybe I'm wrong about it, but all the hype seems like too much.

exactly, standard beat em up. beat em up= repetitive

Forget you guys.

I want this game :D

you guys hould wait before you pass such harsh judgementHyrule-master

Like I said, I know I could be wrong - I'm just saying that this is how it looks to me. And maybe those hyping it should wait before singing such high praises.

you guys hould wait before you pass such harsh judgementHyrule-master

Recent non-first party titles have proven ill to me and left a sour taste of the Wii, leaving me rather skeptical as to whether this game can pull the Wii's rather bleak software line up out of the gutter.

But in all respect, I hope it is a good game. Just as I said before, theres a sour taste in my mouth from previous titles.

And the main character looks and acts like he just walked off the set of Jackass..

The main character was designed off Johnny Knoxville.

Are you serious?? Well then... all the more reason to stay away. :P

listen noobz, do your research before you post, and btw no one cares what you have to say anywaypmipamakcazi2

Anger much?

Some people...

The game looks good GS has talked about more than just picking up cocanutand mowing lawns for the overworld. They talked about racing with your motorcycle.

Yes the regular enemies are a bit repetitive but the action is mixed up with new wrestling moves and weapon upgrades. Also the boss fights are not repetitive at all. I think its a lack of analyzing skills to merely pass this off as a beat em up. One of the coolest things about this game is you cannot label one genre on it.

Not to spund elitist or anything but this looks, unfortunately like one of the most worked out Wii games and is good depending on what your preferences are and I would say if we want more hardcore games on Wii this is a MAJOR testing ground for this. I dont know if you guys realise that Third party devs main justification for turning a blind eye on Wii is that it wont sell well on Wii. No More Heroes could easily change this view but there are too many people who will not broaden their horizens. This is a cult game and does have narrowed crowd, but thats only because there is so much ambiguity in teh VG industry that anythuing out of the ordinary is generally ignored.

No offense, but I am really sick of hearing that. The game isn't even out yet, and we have people practically telling us that it's our duty as Wii owners to buy it. It's ridiculous... you don't even know how good it's actually going to be, and I doubt that other developers are out there holding their breath just to see if this game sells. "Well, the Wii is the best-selling system on the market, but let's only develop for it if this one particular beat-em-up is a success!"

Now, I could see some logic to suggesting that good sales for something like Zack and Wiki could send a message because it truly IS something out of the ordinary, doing something original with the Wii's capabilities(plus, we actually know that's it good, since it's actually out already). But No More Heroes looks like just a beat-em-up with a few waggle controls added-in. That's been done a million times already - the only things setting this one apart are the blood and the attitude. (and maybe the quality - but we don't know that yet, so don't act like it's a given) And I don't think some wrestling moves, weapons upgrades, or motorcycle races qualify this as something particularly original, inventive, or risktaking.

I just wish people would stop acting like this game is so important- that, as Wii owners, we're all supposed to buy it, lest the Wii forever suffer from a derth of quality third-party titles. That's just hype, and it's really annoying.

I was rereading your post and why would you want a sequel if the first one isn't even out yet??Sants412

ironic... i dont want a sequel to this.... i want something more along the estranged lines of killer7 from suda 51

First things first, chill out no need for such an aggravated tone.

Second of all People are so emphatic about this because there are not of games like this on the Wii. People want more games in this style and quality (japanese reviewers have given it 9s and 8s). Maybe you dont care about how third party developers make their games on Wii but other people dont just want Raymen Raving Rabbids andcheap arcade racing ripoffs. This is the sort of game that will change that view for devs whether its logical or not. Publishers constantly make decisions that are not logical.

I never saidsome wrestling moves, weapons upgrades, or motorcycle races qualify as something particularly original, inventive, or risktaking, I said that it would break of the gameplay.

If you would look at the situation you would realise people who are worried about the success for thisgame have a point. Look at the the third party games coming to wii and tell me thats not troubling. If more games like Zak and Wiki, MoH: H2 and No MOre Heroes sold better there would be more games in that fasion with even more quality and attention. Developers are not gonna start making these games until we buy them.

I don't think you "get" it.

Anyway, Although I think the game looks awesome, and I will definately buy it, I think all these "Buy ______ Campaigns" are stupid.

Well, that's all well and good if it comes out and turns out to be extraordinary (though I probably still won't buy it because its attitude rubs me the wrong way), but for now it's just hype.

You save by sitting on the toilet, its a generic beat em up with lacking style, and no originality and because its on the Wii will have little interactivity and at some point they will have crappy motion controlled things to do, if not all the time.-shmelo-

WOW you know nothing about the game. Did you say no style? wow this game oozes style and originality with story and the characters. Also you dont use motion control alot only for the finsing blow. Next time noob do your reasearch and you wont be owned.

I think the game looks interesting.Like,some kind of GTA with swords or something like that.I should get it when it comes out.

Ok the main character is based of Johnny Knoxville yes. He uses a sword, but also uses wrestling moves and stuff like suplex (RE4?) so I don't think this will just be a flick the Wii remote type of game. Also the game also has some GTA style in it.

If it's better than Killer7 than ill get it.

I'm annoyed how it's been censored in PAL. To be honest, I'm surprised how annoyed I am. Maybe it's because PAL always gets it crap when the Wii is concerned. Metroid was 3 months late, Zack and Wiki's not even out yet, and Brawl may be delayed for months. To me it's almost the final straw with No More Heroes. I'll still definately buy it though, to support the devs, and to support mature games being made on the Wii.

yes because every game has to be extraordinary to merit a purchase?????? No.

The game looks like 8.0 range and for good reasons. Either way its worth paying attention to because its one of the most dedicated third party games out for wii, unfortunately. If you want them to push beyond this quality then you have to show them, again unfortunately.

DId i ever said you have to buy it?

I DIDN't and people are entitled to have their own opinions, if they think its goin to be great

then let them beleive, i mean is SSBB out, no, yet everybody (including me and i am sure yourself) thinks its going to be great

The reason I don't think this looks good is because, from all the videos I've seen there are like 3 different dying animations, cut in half, cut off head and stab while onthe floor, that's one thing turning me off at the moment.

Also I don't particularly like sword fighting games, now you may say you probably just haven't played good ones, but I have I've played most of the high scoring ones, like Devil May Cry, and while they are fun for one play through they don't have much replay value.

I have nothing against they may be amazing but of the fighting 3rd person games I've played they have all been rubbish (excluding the Godfather which got the hand to hand down perfectly) and last thing I heard isn't it hold A and slash to do a sword slash? Doesn't sound intuitive or fun to me. I probably won't buy a sword fighting game on Wii unless it has near 1 to 1 sword control.

I don't think people realize the story is the main point of this game.Fredrick2003x

I'm looking forward to this game. I think Killer 7 was great because it was unique and different. This game looks the same. Travis reminds me of Gene from Godhand, in where he just says what you're thinking. At least that's how I see it.
