No More Heroes: more gameplay, more PLAYSYLVIA

by JC Fletcher { Nov 26th 2007 at 3:00PM }

A new week means a new model dressed up as Sylvia Christel and presented in a playing-card-inspired Flash interface! Whether or not the PLAYSYLVIA cosplay is your thing, we can all agree on this: it's an excuse to talk about No More Heroes every week.

But cosplay wasn't the only update made to the No More Heroes site. An anomalously awesome video was added to the "Special" page as well. Why is it so anomalous? For one, it's longer than 10 seconds -- it's almost one whole minute of uninterrupted gameplay. Also, today is not Friday at all.

We're a little awed by how fast-paced the combat in No More Heroes is, and how well-placed the motion-controlled flourishes seem. Even without the humor and the style, this is an action game we would be dying to play.

German suplexes for all, and for all a good night!

I love the coin-splatter, but what happened to the Ninja Gaiden 2-esque blood spurting?

Japan gets the no-blood version.

Day 1 purchase, it's looking to be a awesome game.

I agree with Calvin, I just hope that those frame-rate issues are because of the low-quality video and not the game itself. Now I could care less if my Wii doesn't push the prettiest pixels, but I would at least like my games to run smoothly! Here's hoping! *crosses fingers* :)

"Now I could care less if my Wii doesn't push the prettiest pixels"

I actually do care. Because Wii games shouldn't have to push pixels, it should be pushing polys.

Some people can be so picky! geez!!! I was referring to the image on the screen, you know the TV, which happens to have pixels, which are what you see............ getting where i'm going with this?

On the subject of No More Heroes, the Nintendo Power guys actually had a really good article on this game in their new issue. It breaks down the entire combat system and how the gameplay feels. Apparently, they were allowed to play through the entire game (Japanese version, I presume). If you see an issue of NP with Travis on the front, and you have some free time, I'd suggest you read it.
