"Never before have we played a game that felt so completely in love with being a game"

"It's impossible to put the game in a box, except to say that it is unquestionably, undeniably, unequivocally No More Heroes, and you have never played anything like this before."

 

"No More Heroes is a love letter to videogames that never grows old, tired or dull. All games deserve to be designed with such lunacy."

"This action-driven, lightsaber-whirling game steals liberally from the best of other genres. Even with its less-than-perfect presentation, it works wonderfully on the Wii."

 

"Violence, sex, things to see, things to collect, spectacular graphics and even better sound, a sense of humour, a sense of purpose, an insane logic running through every fiber - and enough swearing to get your TV banned by the authorities."


Gamespot

9/10

Editors' Choice Award

Jan 2008

"This is the mature Wii action title you've been waiting for, and there's nothing else quite like it…

 

This time, SUDA-51 has delivered a game that can match its absurd premise with equally stimulating gameplay, making for one of the most unique and satisfying action games in recent memory."


Edge Magazine

9/10

"This is a game that Suda 51 and GHM have always threatened..."

 

"It's by far one of the best looking and most distinctive Wii games to date"

"...take to the roads of Santa Destroy in Grasshopper's ultra-stylish Wii oddity, and it's one hell of a wild ride..."

"...hipper-than-thou character design, high-contrast comic book visuals, stellar soundtrack or near-omnipresent eighties-retro-punk trimmings".

"No More Heroes is a celebration of popular culture..."

" ...foolish to miss Grasshopper's relentlessly inventive, uniquely entertaining Wii debut".

"No More Heroes is all the better for the lack of complexity, thanks to the thick veins of style and humour running through it."

 

“It’s a game that feels incredibly familiar, but is also completely unique at the same time”

 

“Instead of a truly decent hero, you’ve got a complete jerk. Do we love him? Absolutely.”

“No More Heroes, with its distinctive look, dark humour and simple but challenging, satisfying visceral gameplay, is shaping up into a game that fans of Suda51 and Wii owners in general should look forward to next year.”

 

Eurogamer

 

"...the funniest and most deranged game of next year.

...great sense of humour and the quick-fire, throwaway style...

...a dead-cert for left-field, cult-classic status..."
