No More Heroes playable at TGS!

Suda 51 confirmed back very late last year that NMH will be expected playable at this year's TGS. *check out the link* Now that we've seen the companies listed from IGN, look down at 'M'. 'Marvelous Interactice' is listed there - the publisher of NMH. Looks like they're opening a booth, and a booth = playable games and playable games = playable No More Heroes.

For me, the hype for this title went way down after GDC. Stiff animation, awfully delayed effects, rough textures, A-button mashing sword combat.......BUT X-Play's new footage looked more promising and polished but far from OMG. I am still anticipating the title somewhat, as it has personality, charm and the motorbiking looks sick. I really hope TGS can get me excited for NMH again, with positive previews, fleshed-out visuals and better-flowing combat. This could be NMH's only spot in the sun if the game is still scheduled for 2007 (which I highly doubt - I reckon it'll hit Japan Q1 2008 ).

what's so good about no more heroes?pigfish2

Have you read anything about it? To me its going to be one of the best 3rd party games.

If true this is freaking awesome. I cannot wait for this game, but do hope its pushed to Q1 for sales purposes and to allow for more tweaking/polishing. New screens on the website from last friday really show some visual improvements though. enduin

Link please?

Combat sounds pretty great though too, its not just tap the A button, Suda said the hight and angle determines your attack, and there gestures for special moves, plus all whole wrestling moves you can do to guys. I dont expect some out of this world gameplay, but I think it will be rather solid and fun.

Yeah, I know about the finishing moves and different stances, but I dunno if it's enough - I just hope that when I decapitate an opponent I'm required to swing the controller swiftly, not waggle it in some random direction. Kinda half-baked the experience for me.

As forthe pics, theyare alright, the lighting is better but that's about it.
