This game is surprisingly good every time i see a vid of it on youtube! the controls look realistic! ubisoft actually found out how to make a wii game with motion controls rock! this game is at least 10 times better than red steel. i believe that this could push 2 million units in 2008. (though it wouldn't be close to the amount that the behemoth that is GTA4 willl sell!) your thoughts?

Ubisoft is just the American publisher. It's developed by Grasshopper Manufacture.


I was pretty sure they were a French and Canadian publisher..


 Why did you change your mind?  Ubisoft is a French company.  That said, they are the publisher of No More Heroes in America :)

"Like you know"

I hope it isn't like GTA. I just played the opening missions for San Andreas and I could not continue. I also played Max Payne 2 and the controls were absolutely awful. I do not like Rockstar.

Uhh....No. This game will not touch GTA's sales. It probably won't be as good as GTA either, but that's what I think. I know I shouldn't be judging the game before I have played it, but it's quite obvious it will never reach the critical or commercial success the GTA series has achieved. It's inconceivable. No More Heroes is much too quirky and outlandish to appeal to many people.

All that said, I'm definitely looking forward to playing this game. I wish it can sell a million, but it won't because most Suda games are not successful. But I'm confident NMH will sell more than Killer 7 simply by virtue of being on the Wii.

 Commercial? Hell no. Critical? Its possible.

I get the feeling reviewers are more open to full on strangeness than an average gamer.

Who knows, all I can say is don't expect much from this game.

 Is there something wrong with you?

Oh yes, there must be something wrong with me. Yeah, someone hit me in the head with a PS3 and I've been suffering brain damage ever since. Yeah, that's the only explanation as to why I dislike the GTA series and prefer a better open world game like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Yep, damn that PS3.

 GTA is not a PS3 series and I was not being serious, you're allowed to not like the game, you just shouldn't dislike it. It's a happy game for kids!

 What do you mean I shouldn't dislike it? It's rather juvenile and is for kids.

No More Heroes will barely break 150K worldwide, if that. It's a niche title in every sense of the term.

I'd like for someone to dig up the sales figures on Killer and perhaps divide that number by 2 because of the smaller installed base No More Heroes will see a release on.

No More Heroes is not going to have anything in common with GTA except the M rating. Two two games will not be competing with each other in shape or form.
