The latest issue of Famitsu features some new details on one of Wii's strangest upcoming games, No More Heroes, the latest from Grasshopper Manufacturer. A new character named Holly Summers has been introduced -- ranked 6th in the UAA Ranking, this young girl actually has a missile as her left leg. Gouichi Suda (Suda 51) comments, "I wanted to show this character as quickly as possible since it looks almost like a character from the double-feature movie Grindhouse. But in the movie, it's a machine gun, while Holly has a missile, so she has more firepower!"

Sword duels and wrestling moves, such as the suplex, make use of both the Wiimote and nunchuk. "Assigning moves onto the Wiimote and nunchuk was difficult than I imagined. We have been so used to playing everything by pressing the buttons on the controller, but Nintendo's stance is that this doesn't always have to be the case," said Suda. "I think wrestling games will fit perfectly with the Wii. I'm sure power bombs will work great on this!"

Suda 51 goes on to say "the game is not an extension of Killer 7, but goes the opposite direction, sort of like a reaction if you will. The story of Killer 7 was very complex so this time it will be very simple. The character was also complex since it had multiple personalities, but Travis as a character is much more clearer and simpler."

So far, only 3 of the 13 main characters have been revealed, and one is hinted to be the return of a familiar character. Look for more soon!

great, but man I wish I was 17...

also the second pic where the guy is getting chopped in half, words can't describe it...you get the sense of violence and a sense of how awesome this game is gonna be...

yay something looks promising for a change.

i don't like th graphics style looks way weird but hey it could be cool.Blessing77

Have you played killer 7... amazing game... the cel-shaded characters look awesome in movement.

This was by far my most hyped Wii game for months after its announcment... I lover Killer 7 alot... the story was amazing, the characters deep and imersive and the stylish cell shaded backgrounds complemented the character models perfectly... and all of this has been taken out for NMH??? I hope it doesnt dissapoint, though for the moment Suda gets the benefit of the doubt...Iorning_board

Read what Suda said. He said the story is simple but more engaging. NMH is more action orientated so the gameplay is more forward. Now simple story is well becoming the top rated killer in an organization of killers. It's an anti Killer7. Still great and more people will be able to get into it. Killer7 had a plot out of a David Lynch film and most people are too dumb to comprehend something that complex even though in reality it isn't very complex when you think about it at all.

Looks to be a pretty fun game, not to bad looking either.

It's only got 3 sentences of the story...... in japanese:lol: what an update! Ahahahaha.

so far cutting a guy in two isn't as bad as manhunt 2... huh1upMushroomX6

It doesn't look like there's any blood and definitely no guts. That's a little different. It's also not a very realistic feat.

Well the last trailer shown had lots of blood coming out of guys when cut, and these are from Famitsu and Japan censors a lot so that could be the reason for the absense of blood. As well the original trailer was edited to take out the beheading of Helter Skelter cause of Japan when the original had it and blood spray.

I just watched the two trailers that Gamespot has. The blood squirts out a little later than the action in the screenshot, so you're right. But I hold to the point that it isn't realistic at all. The blood is fully exaggerated and doesn't make you feel squeamish or anything. The whole style of the game creates a lighter atmosphere, it seems.

And I'm glad I watched those trailers. I had seen the first one before, but I hadn't seen the one with actual gameplay. It looks like an awesome game.

The HUD is hideous though :/Arsuz

Agreed. It's very cluttered.

[QUOTE="Arsuz"]The HUD is hideous though :/LOLhahaDEAD

Agreed. It's very cluttered.

It is a little, but barely more than Twilight Princess, and it if you have a widescreen TV it will help a lot.

I don't think I've ever seen such confusing screens XD

Its always a treat to see your threads GG. :)

There's a video of him cutting a guy in half somewhere. It looks even more awesome in motion.

this game looks so messed up in the head its not funny (well it is in a humourless way). itll probably do more mental damage than manhunt 2 ever could. try and figure it out and ure mind will just go boom. with killer 7 i just accepted it and moved on...i stayed realtively stable.

so yea really messed up.....i want it. whens the release? 2008?

So let me get this straight. You cut a guy in half, but there is no blood? LMFAO!!!! And you wonder why they're called Kidtendo. :lol:JayPee89
