39. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle

To be quite honest here, I thought this game was supperior in almost every way to the original. It had better gameplay, got rid of the hub world, had better beam katanas, had better mini-games, seriously I cant believe this game isn't in my top 10, but the one huge problem that I had with this game was that for some reason I wasn't enticed by the story or most of the assassains that you had to kill in this game and for me, that is what made the first NMH a classic to me. This game has it all, but the problem is that the people you kill don't seem to be worth killing. Few bosses leave the impression that they were worth killing but the few that do are spectacular as hell. I playing as henry and shinobu was fun (exluding platforming.) I think the main reason I like this game so much is because I have the first NMH in such high regard. Once I beat the game, I felt a little dissapointed, but then I read an article on destructiod called "What No More Heroes 2 means to me" and it put so much of the game I didn't understand into a higher and more deeper context. I played the game on bitter after that and shockingly this game became something even more. I suggest everyone who wants to play this game read that article after you beat the game because it made me appreciate this game more than the face value that it deserves. :)
