    Man, I want MadWorld. It looks absurd but fun.

    I haven't actually bought a new game in a few months!

    It is completely absurd and ridiculous!

    My best description of the game is a playground in which you have to use the environment to come up with the most ridiculous deaths possible.

    i.e. slam a tire down around a guy, stab him through the neck with a signpost, then throw him into a train covered with spikes, which looking at the scoring is one of the more basic kills.

    So its a bit different then the usual beat em up punch dudes forever kinda game.

    I'm digging it.

    I can't figure out how to get anything besides "hard core" kills. Tire or trash can to trap the goon, sign post or two through the head, throw into rose bush is still only hardcore.

    I'm pretty sure Postal 2 did have a command that allowed you to piss at will.

    Which I suppose is really impressive, in it's own way.

    I am shocked that a game as straight forward as a light gun shooter can cram in more expletives than a game with drawn out narration like GTA4. Change shocked to impressed.

    Madworld really feels like its stride with the Asiantown levels. I guess I am probably much more familiar with the game now, but it feels much more polished the first level. The boss fights were really fun.

    I can't figure out how I am supposed to fight Yokozuna though. The chain saw feels like cheating, but Jack's running shoulder attack doesn't do shit. I guess I am supposed to knock him out of ring somehow, right?

    I think the most impressive thing about this game is that it was made by the japanese, but it doesn't have any engrish or any craptacular voice acting or anything. It's really well polished.

    It did.

    If you were set on fire you could piss to put yourself out.

    YOu could also piss on living people to make them throw up and then chop off their heads with a shovel.

    I'm close to beating MadWorld and I love it, think I'm on the last or second to last level. I still like No More Heroes more mostly due to the story, but MadWorld is tons of fun. Game is a nonstop bloodsoaked rollercoaster ride of madness.

    for as sensationalist as that game was and was trying to be, the core gameplay was actually pretty good

    I'd say MadWorld has better gameplay in general, but No More Heroes' style and cutscenes push it over the edge for me.

    Are any of you guys playing this?

    I'm up the Castle on my first play-through. Difficulty really takes a step up. It is still hilarious and awesome and everything, but the damn environmental hazards in the dungeon and the cramped quarters is making things really difficult.
