    Heh, I really liked the Viewtiful Joe reference in Okami. After going to the tailor in the games major city and making the V design appear everywhere the little girl that was key to the puzzle says something along the lines of "How do you like my design? Isn't it Viewtiful?" She also finishes the conversation with "Henshin' a go go baby!"

    I should really give Godhand a shot sometime. Viewtiful Joe was easily one of my favorite GameCube games and though I never played Okami on the PS2 I bought the Wii version awhile ago and really got sucked into it. I must have about 120 hours logged into that game, which puts it about on par with Twilight Princess for me. It certainly doesn't help that I'm a completionist/item collecting obsessed perfectionist and that the game has a ton of items.

    Just finished the Rank 5 match. The story really is interesting, and it and the gameplay have only gotten better as the game progresses. The Rank 11 match was fucking awesome.

    From what I've seen so far, no new bare-handed finishers, but every stage generally gives you a new weapon, which has it's own unique set of finishers.

    I think the soundtrack was a pre-order bonus.

    My wife checked around for this game yesterday and no one had it. I am going to go check at the local K-mart in about an hour. They probably won't have it, because they are Kmart and their selection for almost everything is terrible. Maybe Blockbuster will have it available to buy.

    I only played the first level, and my only regret was that I couldn't find a way to get enemies up on a train so I could kill them with the spinning sawblade I found. I love how the game rewards you for being innovative.

    Violent videogames don't make people violent.
    News articles about violent videogames make people violent.

    Therefore I propose we ban mainstream reporting of violent videogames.

    Well, lots of commercials and other media indicate that the Wii is aimed at families.

    Anyway, I think my wife has our Visa giftcard, so I guess I will get this game this weekend some time. I probably won't get to play it until Monday or Tuesday though. :( I am glad to hear people are having fun!

    I may look for Godhand too.

    I have to say, pretty much anything that is done via waggle in Madworld could be done with button presses and joystick spins, but this is so much more satisfying.

    Swinging the Wiimote 3 to 4 times to really impale a guy in a Rose Bush. NGH
    Wham, swing that remote and throw that guy in! Oomph!

    Definitely having a lot of fun with this so far, and am actually surprised at how good the story is. I don't think I've ever cared about what's going to happen next in a brawler before. My only real gripe is that I REALLY would have liked a backwards toss of some sort, but otherwise I'm very satisfied with everything in the game. They set a solid foundation to build upon should a sequel get the green light.

    I got this image of a PR guy in a suit rolling a television with a Wii next to it up to a mob of angry conservatives and plugging it all in before finally speaking:

    "Here's our new game, Madworld. We'll be releasing this tomorrow, at stores all over the USA."

    He then proceeds to show the mob how a player is able to shove a road sign through someone's face, man darts, the dumpster death, then finishing off with a scene where the main character revs his chainsaw. He then shuts down the console and unplugs everything before thanking the crowd and walking away.

    It's a beautiful image.

    well now that i've beaten it on normal I have to say my only real complaint is that it is way too easy. It almost seems like normal should be very easy and there should be an easy and a normal in between it and the hard mode (which is actually hard) I know on normal it seems to be more about killing people and having fun than an actual challenge but there was one point about halfway through where I thought I paused the game and went to get a drink, i came back a few minutes later to find I hadn't paused it, but no worries, the guys surrounding me only took off about 25% of my health while I was gone :| That's just a bit too far on the easy side for my taste.

    I would also occasionally get turned around and have no idea where i was or what anything else was due to the black and white until i reoriented myself with the map, but i'm assuming thats just an oddity with my brain/eyes since i haven't seen anyone else complain about it
