   Has to be one of my favourite games of all time. Picked up the Wii version a year or two ago for £7.99 and fell in love with itHas to be one of my favourite games of all time. Picked up the Wii version a year or two ago for £7.99 and fell in love with it completely, so I was stoked that there was going to be an HD update for the Move. Definitely not a game for everyone, but this game has an excellent following nonetheless, and ticks just about every box.
   
   Brilliant dialogue teamed with a nice and unintrusive storyline and hilarious, amazingly interesting and brutal characters come together to make the innovative take on the Hack 'n' Slash action that much more fun and exciting, and the game keeps all of the fights interesting to complete more than a few times. The fact that this version of the game is uncut is also a huge bonus, as there was no blood in the European version of the Wii game, and the game is made that much cooler by being able to slice your enemies in two. Of course the main element of the game is the fighting and ranked battles that you have to take part in to reach the number 1 spot on the Assassin's rankings, the open world (the Wii game's biggest flaw) has been touched upon and improved, with many bugs being taken out and more reasons to explore.
   
   Of course, the new PlayStation exclusive features are all welcomed greatly, including the surprisingly nice graphics, excellent Move and Dualshock support and not to mention the extra modes such as the score and time based boss fight mode which really adds a lot of replayability to the game. The inclusion of a handful of brilliantly integrated bosses from Desperate Struggle (a game I unfortunately never bought) is an excellent idea and they are carried over well and leave me clinging on to the idea of a sequel (despite poor sales of this update). New beam katanas and paintjobs for the Schpheltiger (Schfeltiger?) Motorcycle are also a nice way to add new things to collect and experiment with.
   
   Overall, this game is great (despite a few technical flaws, but that's forgiveable when you consider it's an update of a somewhat less powerful Wii game) and it's such a shame that only 90,000 copies have been sold. Still holding out for the sequel though, that'd be ace. All that remains is to thank AQ Interactive and Marvelous Entertainment for updating this game for the PS3.… Expand

   Such a odd game yet in a good way. No more heroes certainly can be given some credit for being some what original. Even though in the end itSuch a odd game yet in a good way. No more heroes certainly can be given some credit for being some what original. Even though in the end it is a Hack n Slash game , though it is one that is done fairly well. The story is pretty off the wall and pretty goofy and trust me by the time you get to the end it only gets more insane but its also not taking its self seriesly ether. In between missions you can drive this insane tricked out rocket cycle around town in a free roam mode and do differnt things like assasine missions, look for orange balls to learn new skills , or work at odd ball part time jobs which actaully can be kinda intresting and fun to make some cash. you can also buy all kinds of clothing attire at the store and some upgrades for your beam like laser sword. The whole point of the game ultimatley is to become the #1 assasine in the world . The diffaculty with the bosses can be abit odd you will fight one thats way easy then one thats hard then one thats way easy again but still its a fun game and if you want some thing differnt then you should check this out.… Expand

   I'm a big fan of Suda 51, in fact I'm sure that if someday he had the budget of a big title (like GTA, Zelda, Assassin's Creed, etc.) he wouldI'm a big fan of Suda 51, in fact I'm sure that if someday he had the budget of a big title (like GTA, Zelda, Assassin's Creed, etc.) he would make a masterpiece, but for the moment let's see how it does with the "small" budget he has.
   
   It is also important to remind that No More Heroes was originally a Wii game and therefore you can't expect it to have the same technical qualities that any PS3 game but nonetheless the Cel-shading style looks good enough the port was well done but you can see it came from the Wii with the emptiness of the city and levels in general. The framerate is steady and there is apparently no bugs in the game.
   
   Concerning the gameplay you can play the game either with a classic controller or with a PS Move (if you have one) both work well, of course the PS Move is more fun as the game was made for motion controls (with a controller you just tilt the joysticks in the indicated direction). It's pretty fun and the side activities make for a nice change of gameplay (when the side missions are a little repetitive in their design).
   The game design is a bit repetitive after each level you have to earn enough cash to fight the next guy which is fun the first three times but the tenth...
   
   The story here is crazy and could totally be adapted in manga or anime, I personally loved it but you might not get into the universe, the boss fights are greatly design and original with good voice overs. The game should last about 12 hours, which is neither long or short for the genre.
   
   In conclusion No More Heroes: Heroes Paradise is a good port of another good game from director Suda51 and I'll advise for every one that likes japanese "non-sense" or if you're looking for nice boss fights.… Expand

   I have to admit that I REALY DO ENJOY THIS ONE!! at first I did not, I played for an hour or less
   and then I throw it and forget about it for quite some time, and then I picked it
   up again and start slashing and killing and this time I am hoked!
   it's not for everyone, and I am one picky videogame player, I do not play anything just for kicks
   I only play serious games like RPGs and action/puzzle games with story that can
   get my attention/interest. This game have no story and no puzzle, its just killing people
   and blood everywhere, I used to hate these kind of games and to judge those who
   like this kind of gener..but oh boy how I am enjoying this!!
   hope to see NoMore Heros 2 ported to PS3. In the other hand the graphics are a bit
   ..well..old school if I may say comparing it to other games of the gener, but hey
   its just a ported wii game, and now I just want to KILL thing!… Expand

Everything about the story is very niche, you will either go for the quirkiness and stack that up with it's somewhat few good points, or pile it up with the bad aspects of the game. But a few things are somewhat absolute, and you will to get past them will determine how well this game does for you. The controls are HORRIBLE, it doesn't matter if you play with the Dual Shock 3 or the Playstation Move, both suck in different ways but suck nonetheless (some mini-games seem impossible on the Move though). The game is very limited, with huge environments that are very boring, look all alike and are filled to death with invisible walls. The world is completely devoided of live or pretty much anything interesting to do, as a sandbox, this fails miserably. The graphics are very excessively bad, and having it run on a PS3 is kinda aggravating. I'm giving this game a 6 because I find the story overall amusing, but I find myself laughing more AT IT than with it.… Expand
