40/40 from Famitsu


All of these games should interest gamers from all platforms. Not only Wii fans.

Yes. There are other hardcore games coming to the Wii, but I thought I'd stick to third party games with impressive visuals. Keep things basic. :)

SIN & Punishment 2 hell yeah.. I can't wait for that game. No More Heroes 2 is gonna be awesome. Red Steel 2 is completely different from the first game.

Monster Hunter and NMH for me, I don't like the Western Style of Red Steel 2 and I've never played Sin and Punishment before.

From the developer playthrough of Red Steel, I think it looks horrible just like the first.

Out of that list they all look good but Sin and Punishment 2 is the only one I want to play. I much rather play Turtles: Smash Up or Rabbits Go Home over the others.

You really should give Sin and Punishment a try it's only like $10 the VC. I have not forgiven Ubisoft for making the first Red Steel. I spent my money on that load of crap. I don't know about other, but I am not so willing to jump on a hype train for another one.

No More Heroes 2 is the only one that interests me. It's crazy how much Red Steel looks like Borderlands.

I'm definitely getting Monster Hunter 3.


Red Steel 2 is still a maybe..I don't fully trust Ubisoft after what they did with the first one.


No More Heroes 1/2 are probably going to be rentals or bought used. Suda doesn't make the most polished games in the industry; I'm not sure if I want to pay full price for them.


Sin and Punishment 2: Haven't played the first one, so this is another maybe.


Also, you should've added Muramasa to your list! :D

I'm really hyped with NMH2, i loved the first one, so i can't wait for this one.

I'm gonna check S&P 2 too, the game looks fun.

MH and Red Steel 2 are not my type of games, maybe because i haven't played any MH before, but of course, if they are fine games, then i'll check them.

On the other hand, once again, i'm more hyped for a Nintendo game, Metroid, is my most hyped game of 2010.

Silent hill, Boy and his blob, and Muramasa look pretty good too. I'm probably going to get those 7, unless the reviews turn out bad. I'm not completely convinced about muramasa and red steel 2 yet.

Monster Hunter 3, Red Steel 2 and No More Heroes 2 look very appealing to me. If Nintendo would simply drop the price, I would be more than happy to finally pick up a Wii. Not seeing that happen anytime soon, though, and I am just not going to pay 250.00 for one on the current market....no way.

Ow and i think most of You really don't know what they're getting with monster hunter 3. It's definitely niche. Not an action game like we're used to but much slower pacing. Please research before You get that one.

I really hope I can find a copy of Monster Hunter 3 when I finally buy a Wii.

No More Heroes 2 also interests me but I suppose I should play the first game. :P And Red Steel 2 looks good.

I'm definitely getting Monster Hunter 3. As will I. :D


Red Steel 2 is still a maybe..I don't fully trust Ubisoft after what they did with the first one.Never played the first, though I do remember how hyped I was for it. The initial trailers and screenshots compared to the finals were vastly different. This time around though, they've showed off gameplay early and the shots compared to the gameplay demos are pretty close to me aside from the aliasing.


No More Heroes 1/2 are probably going to be rentals or bought used. Suda doesn't make the most polished games in the industry; I'm not sure if I want to pay full price for them. Agreed on the polish, though the sheer amount of styIe the first distracted me from the flaws until way after I was done playing. :P NMH 2's trailers show a bit more polish than the first's.


Sin and Punishment 2: Haven't played the first one, so this is another maybe. Same with me.


Also, you should've added Muramasa to your list! :D *High five's shoryuken_* 8)

They'll have very short load times and no installation or patching.

Suba is not everything so many people make him out to be. Most of his games are ugly and have issues though out them. Many look up to him has being this gaming god that he is not.

The first 3 most definitely. Red Steel 2? Hell no, Ubisoft Wii efforts sucks, Red steel sucks, western themes sucks, FPS on Wii sucks, Its all suck and nobody will convince me otherwise, I will only trust a hands-on impression from myself for that game

I will get Monster Hunter 3, game looks like it might be fun. Sin and Punishment 2 looks great, I loved the first one. I'm also looking forward to A boy and his Blob and Muramasa. I still want more information on Monado, Dynamic Slash, and Cosmic Walker.
