NO MORE HEROES Discussion - FS/FT Pure White Giant Glastonbury LE Pink Cartridge

I am also at the rank 1 fight after getting enough $ to buy the best weapon sword. Very excited.

edit: I realized I still need to get the 2nd weapon upgrade to see the real ending if I ever beat Jeanne because she is hard.

You don't need the 99 million whatever upgrade for sword 3 to get the best ending. You just need to own the final sword.

Rank 1 is tough until you get the pattern down, just like all the other bosses. I don't even remember the pattern any more, but I had a lot of luck luring the boss near a wall so my d-pad dodges would leave me invincible but I'd dodge into the wall and wouldn't go anywhere; that way I am in position to counter attack instantly.
 
Finished my first play through and am on new game plus. I tried bitter but got frustrated by the controls by the time I got to rank 5 so I will just blaze through the second time on mild. What a fucking awesome game.
 
After getting 100% on this I've got to send some fan mail to Grasshopper. The character designs, just those little details that come through in the concept art, are absolutely amazing.

It didn't hit me until my second time through and seeing the concept art for the bikes that the entire last fight is one huge Star Wars homage. So awesome. So so awesome.

My only real gripes with the game come with the wonky combat on bitter (understandable since the game is focused on style rather than action gameplay) and how poor a job was done translating Sylvia from concept to render. She's definitely much improved over the proof of concept trailer but she's not nearly as 'alluring' as she comes across in two dimensions. It's almost like the animators couldn't decide if they wanted her to be lifelike or as over-the-top as the other characters. Either way it's minor bitching. Day one whatever Suda directs next.
 
Favorite boss is Speed Buster.

Funniest boss is Letz Shake

Most disturbing boss is either Bad Girl or Destroyman (crotch beam ftw!)
 
[quote name='Revolution']i really, REALLY want a sequel. Too bad Sylvia straight up tells you that there wont be one. :([/QUOTE]

that's entirely a joke from Suda 51. doing a sequel is still highly possible. Suda 51 really wanted to do so.
 
so i guess the real question is if the game sold well enough to have a sequel? I hope it did, cuz in my gamestop (NY) it was sold out on the launch day, i got the last copy :)
 
I love this game, probably my favorite for the Wii. I got through sweet and mild before my wii broke (but now that I've got a new one I'm definetly going to try to get through bitter). I love it so much that I even got a custom action figure made of it.

You can see pictures of that figure here and here

That's cool, and a lot of crotch.
 
Best. 3rd. Party. Wii. Game. Ever. Some notable things about the game (good or bad) are:

1.) Henry is badass, more badass as travis in fact, though not as punk or hilarious.
2) It had an epic ending (real one)
3)Bad girl was a bitch to kill
4.) Assassination mode 18 is the best one
5) Jeane was pathetic
6)The motorcycle level before rank 1 SUCKED
7) The million-dollar upgrade is essential for henry on bitter
8) My sylvia phone calls werent working and ubisoft didn't know why when I called customer support
9) The Letz Shake cutscene was hilarious
10) Sylvia is a whore, though hot
11) I still don't understand how the ending cutscene with Jeane is activated (I lost the last sword/hand clash......or else I think I did- and I still won)
12) This would make a really good movie
13.) This would make a realloy good sequel
14.) Bitter mode is unmercifully hard (the first time)
 
1) I believe you are required to refer to him as "Sir Henry Whatshismotherfucker" (Esquire).
3) She's a huge pain unless you can time the "batting" stuff properly - that makes it far easier.
5) Put a spoiler tag on that one.
6) How so? It was really quite easy. Not necessarily as good as the motorcycle fight in the baseball stadium, but at least there wasn't slowdown.
7) That upgrade makes the game so much easier. Being able to do the low-charge combo without the huge power drain really speeds fights up.
9) I am going to lose ze bowel control!
10) Oh, shit! Oh, shit! I'm packing heat!
11)
It forces you to "lose" that one. Dunno what happens if you intentionally "throw" it, though.
12) Pass
13) Agreed
14) Actually, I had much less trouble with most of Bitter than I did with my first run-through on Mild.

1) Sorry, once I get official name I will edit it, unless it actually is "whatshismotherfucker" (I wouldn't be surprised)
5) My vistas acting all shitty again, I will if I get the chance
6) In the fact that if you did one thing wrong you had restart all the way at the beginning
12) I, mean, like replacing the filler between missions with story. On second thought, you are right.
13)
Still, I couldnt imagine how it would happen, besides making a continuing feud between Travis and Henry. Funny thing about that too, my haircut makes me look a lot like sir henry and my bro travis
14) I skipped mild
15) The portrait at the end of the real ending is one of the most epic things I've ever seen.
16) The crotch beam was hilarious, though still not as hilarious as saddlers crotch blade at the castle in re4
 
1) Presumably, it's
Touchdown
. Whatshismotherfucker is far better, though.
6) I wouldn't know. Never made a mistake on that bit. Chalk it up to the time I spent on F-Zero GX.
14) I skipped Sweet.
15) Very much so.

...

*goes to Google that image for a wallpaper*
16) Still not on par with Letz Shake's pelvic-thrust. Five! Four! Three! Two! One! *thrust* Ow! Fire!
 
finally just got NMH Dark Side album... so far it's interesting.

I will say this album definitely fulfills the punk aspect of the game.

and damn... the glastonbury main theme song has lyrics!
 
Started working through the game again, trying to finally beat it.

Bad Girl is fucking annoying. I keep rolling into the insta-death. Had to shut the Wii off =(

Oh yeah, what's stronger? Tsubaki Mk II with upgrades or Tsubaki Mk III without? I have the feeling I need to go back to the previous one to get more damage output right now.
 
How do I dodge that samurai teacher limit break attack? She does it when she reach low health. I'm not good with the timing. This is probably the third boss. I think I have to attack her after her finishing move is over but I can't dodge all her attacks.

Edit: Well, she starting slashing you with her sword non-stop when her health is pretty low.
 
Hero - not entirely sure. Been a while. I'm pretty sure there's some sort of indicator to it - a yell or something before she does it where you can use the D-Pad to dodge. If the D-Pad doesn't work and you can't stay back, I guess you just have to block (pay attention to whether you're high or low) and dark step.
 
Maybe it's just because I got a ps3 with mgs4 and gta 4 but no more heroes looks and plays like shit now. It is getting really hard to go back to playing this game now. Still a great game, just not nearly as fun anymore.
Glad I only dropped 20 on it.
 
This game is pure ownage. If you can't appreciate it then you have no soul. Sorry.

... with that said, I'm praying for a sequel especially after seeing the "true" ending.
 
This was one of the games i bought my wii for. No more heroes, zelda TP, and SSBB. Zelda tp's waggle controls annoyed me. SSBB failed hard at online, map creator, and went too casual. This led me to not pick up any more wii games ever and i haven't touched my wii since about 2 weeks after brawl came out.

I just rented this from gamefly and i must say, this is awesome. I've been a big fan of goichi suda since killer 7 and contact. This is pure suda 51. Im loving the artistic style he always uses and everything about it so far.

I just beat the first boss and am ranked 10. I'm gonna return the game to gamefly and go buy the game tomorrow.

Anyone know what suda 51 is up to now? I really want him to make a 360 game. The only thing i can complain about so far is that the game is pretty blocky. Maybe i'm just used to 360.
 
We have 3 DS remakes of Suda 51 games, that originally never came out in the US, coming out at some point in the near future, and he's working on Fatal Frame 4.
 
Beat that samurai chick. I'm was searching for balls. What does this bar man want with balls anyways. :cry: I learned like 3 moves from him. Then I have to search for more balls.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I do hope the 3 DS games do come stateside. It does sound like Flower, Sun, and Rain is coming stateside, but the Silver Cases may not... which would suck.[/quote]

It was stated that all 3 games out receive a worldwide release according to Wikipedia and its sources.
 
[quote name='ChibiJosh']It was stated that all 3 games out receive a worldwide release according to Wikipedia and its sources.[/QUOTE]

yeah, but wikipedia isn't always right on stuff like that. I've been pretty on-top of whatever is happening to the Suda 51 DS games and all I've heard of outside releases were with europe...
 
I have to say this game is sick, pure sick.. I am soo damn tired today I was up last night wrapping this thing up. I loved this damn game.

I am not one play for 100% but I almost did that here. I mean if it hadnt been pushing 2 am on just a few hours from the night before I would have wrapped up the side missions in gold as well.

This will be stuck with my wii for the long haul.. I cant wait to let others see the awesomeness of this game.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']yea, definitely one of the few reasons I still have a wii.[/quote]

Im with you on that one. After buying No More Heroes, SSBB, Mario Galaxy, Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil UC, Manhunt 2, SSX Blur, and Zack and Wiki.....No More Heroes is the only one i still own. Though for the most part all those games were great.
 
No More Heroes arrived the weekend before Mario RPG. I've been gunning thru the two of them. Two great games. No More Heroes is about exactly what I expected. The between missions are just a tad boring but the rank matches more than make up for it. After requiring 3 attempts at Rank 8 I just did Rank 7 in one go. Great fun I tell you.. great fun. I just figured out that I get a vibration when I walk over the treasure which makes up for the bad map. The balls are on the map, the buried treasure is on the map. The only thing I think I'll have to hunt for is dumpsters for shirts.
 
anyone got any advice for the final boss. I'm gonna give it another whirl tonight but I remember it being very hard to figure out when/where I could hit the final boss.
 
Sorry, no. Immediately after beating this game on Mild, I went right through it on Bitter.

Then something came up - I think I had to start working or something - and I stopped for a long time.

Now I'm on the final boss on Bitter and I'm rusty as fuck.
