Forums - Gaming Discussion - Destructoid: No More Heroes 2 Launch Trailer > Mass Effect 2 Launch Trailer

Haha I like both trailers and I'm getting both, but I just love the punk style of the No More Heroes series. I know most won't understand it or enjoy it because punk isn't necessarily something most like, but I just love it and nice to see it in video games. Thank you Suda.

ME wins its just more epic IMO

ME2 is more like a movie trailer than a video game.

In a world... where corruption has taken control... and an alien menace threatens our very dignity... only one man... can fly through some red stuff in outer space... which nobody has survived... starring Golden Globe winner Martin Sheen, Seth Green, and the voices of Worf from Star Trek, Trinity from the Matrix, and Albert Wesker from Resident Evil... EA presents... Mass Effect 2.

More massive.  More effective.



Absolutely stupid comparison.
On one hand we have a mediocre trailer for a mediocre game that tries (with some tricks) to stay on top.
On the other hand we have a game that DOESN'T need any trailer at all, and still it gets one, better than the 90% of movie trailers for the past 10 hears.
At the end, what will remain is the game. And ME2 is, since birth, out of competition...

I LOL'd at the bold.

 

Honestly, that whole "only one man can save the galaxy" crap is so tired I couldn't tell if it was advertising The Lord of the Rings or The Matrix or Terminator 2 or The New Testament.  But at least all those have memorable protagonists to go with their epic messianic plots.

No More Heroes 2 isn't half as epic as Mass Effect 2, but Travis Touchdown is a million times more memorable than what's-his-face, "the bald space marine from Mass Effect."

FUCKING OWNED!





I personnally really enjoye the punk stlye of both No more heroes and its trailer. But don't get me wrong. I'll check ME2 when it will be released in theaters.

I think comparing them is kinda pointless, totally different kinds of games and therefore totally different kinds of trailer. You might as well compare the trailers of Clerks and Terminator II.

I prefer games that don't take themselves so seriously (insert Joker image)

NMH is a game that certainly doesn't take itself seriously, and this trailer takes that to a new level (random images of Safari animals being an example)

I am pretty sure I would enjoy Mass Effect 2 a lot, Mass Effect being one of the few X360 games that interests me. But this trailer is taking the game even more seriously than the game probably does.

Just a personal preference, and they both clearly work as trailers for their audiences.... No More Heroes trailer emphasising the random and non-coherant nature of the game, and Mass Effect trailer essentially trying to be as "epic" as possible.
