So, No More Heroes. A GTA styled game from the makers of Killer 7, where you play as an Otaku assassin with a Beam Sword.

Awesome sounding? Yes. Oh god yes.

So, a hope and a prayer for what will probably be a great game, with adequit swordfighting mechanics.

And apparently you have to kill highscool girl assassins too.

Whaaaaaaaa?

    To put it another way, I think he means a thread for the game could use a little more content. Just edit a few choice images, a storyline, and maybe a character bio or thirty into the OP and you're good to go.

    thoughtless, dude, what the fuck is your problem? cap'n seemed to make it pretty clear you're not the arbiter of who gets to make threads or deem info threadworthy. if you want to go ahead and link to the old thread, that'd be nice. i looked and couldnt find it. and if he wants to start a new thread, who the fuck are you to come in and decide you own the game in question and only you may create new threads? if you dont like the OP, provide better content or stfu and gtfo.

    And this guy keeps posting thread after thread after thread, with the most barebones OP's I've ever seen. Please, provide some content, and have it be more than the first 3 screenshots you could find and a wikipedia entry.

    Boo fucking hoo. If you have a problem with the OP, post some relevant information instead of being a dick.

    I know this might sound crazy, but just because you made a topic about it in the past doesn't mean it's yours and yours alone. If you think yours was better, you should have mentioned that you already made one and linked to it. If yours truly was better, people woul;d post in it, and this thread would drop off the front page into obscurity.

    Also, your mom gives lousy head.

    This is the third thread he's made in the last four days. Yeah, they're a little lacking on content, but still not deserving of your attitude.

    Generally, when you make a new thread continuing off the old one, you include pertinent info in the new OP. Generally, you're cocking up this thread with a bunch of self-satisfying bullshit. So like i said, either provide some content or gtfo. But don't come demanding first right to any new thread you so desire. That's not how it works.

    On topic, this looks interesting, but not a must-buy by any means just yet.

    Looks stylish, hopefully they can learn from Killer 7's mistakes. Not a big fan of the sorta-cell-shaded look, but here's hoping it plays well.

    Hi-Def Trailer

    So it's basically as close to Killer7 2 as we'll ever get, has cool designs, and lightsabers.

    Doesn't this game have the quote about "fine words and shiny armor"? I don't think I'd be able to play a game that has that sort of dialogue and isn't joking.

    Edit: That's still a form of cel-shading. See how the shadows are one shade, and make distinct lines on the character? That's a type of cel-shading.

    I'd like to think that's not meant to be taken seriously. The creator's a Samurai Champloo fan after all(at least I think he is... there's a chance he just pounced the license, but I doubt it).

    Hopefully he's going for the deliberately cheesy dialogue route.

    Isn't that more a kinda shitty low poly character? :p

    Yah, I can see what you mean, I'll pass judgement on it later, but it looks like it could be added to the list of games that might make the Wii interesting.

    Still have to track down a copy of killer 7 first though, seems pretty hard to find in the uk.

    Sorry, but he wasn't a fan before producing the game. I'm sure he watched the entirety of the series once he'd accepted to produce it, but he wasn't a fan prior.
