Title: No More Heroes coming to PS3/X360
Post by: W7RE on Thursday, November 19, 2009, 06:40:20 PM
Stolen from this NeoGAF thread (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=380142):

http://www.xbox.com/ja-JP/games/n/nomoreheroes/default.htm
http://www.famitsu.com/game/coming/1229717_1407.html

Graphics are updated to 720p. Models seem to be about the same, but textures and lighting are improved. There's several screen in that thread, here's one comparison:

Wrong aspect ratio, and bad Wii screen grab (or so someone says on there, I don't own a Wii so for all I know it could be that bad), but you get the idea.

Also, apparently the PS3 version will be censored but the X360 version won't (I guess because the PS3 version is expected to sell more in Japan, and uncensored it would get basically an AO). I'm pretty sure this is talking about the Japanese versions, but the censoring may be mirrored in NA too, who knows.





I've had a small amount of interest in this game before, but don't have a Wii so I never payed much attention to it. When it comes out I may be tempted to get it if partially just to say "fuck you, waggle". For that reason I sort of hope it does well on these systems. Sort of a united gamer message of "fuck you, waggle". Of course I know I'm probbly in the minority on that sentiment. :(

I'm with you.  Waggle can die.  I'm actually not sure I like the new graphics as much, though.  There was almost a unique art style aspect to the low-fi look of it on Wii that I kind of dug.  Not sure I'm into it as much being all crisp and clear.  But I'd really have to see it in motion and stuff before I made that judgment.

Game was awesome.  One of the best uses of the Wii controls i've encountered thus-far.

No More Heroes - HD for PS3 and X360 is NOT coming to NA period.
Go scream at UbiSoft. (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3177036)

Hm.  Well at the very least you'll be able to import it on PS3

Well according to the article it could still come to NA, they'd just need a publisher to pick it up.

Yeah, that's really not saying much.

The game would be half as fun without them.

Well, what if you just kind of waggled your Dual Shock 3 while you pushed the buttons?


I'm just messing with you. I'm sure there are some great applications of the controller; I don't think I would have had as much fun with Wii sports when I had a Wii in my place if it was just hitting A and B. It's just, you know, 99.9% of the games....

I'm not big on waggle, but I never did play NMH, so I can't say how it worked there.  All I know is the game looked like awesome fun and I'm still annoyed that I don't have it.

I haven't encountered many games where the Wii controls have actually improved the experience, but this game is definitely one of them

From Shacknews...
No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise Edition [new version of NMH 2007 Wii game + new extra content + new features] is only getting a PS3 exclusive release in North America.
And it'll also support Move. (http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/66202)

That's good news on the Move part.  This game would lose a lot of its charm if played with a regular controller.

I'm so glad this is coming to PS3 finally, don't really care about the Move stuff, since I didn't like the motion controls for the Wii version when I played it, but you are supposed to be able to play this with a Dual Shock controller just fine.  Hopefully they plan to release the second one too.

I had hopes for this because I wanted it to be a blow against motion controls (by outselling the Wii version). Having Move support kills that dream. :(
