Product Description:
You are Travis Touchdown, a normal guy (with an otaku geek streak) who wins a Beam Katana through an online auction and uses the weapon to start a new career as a professional killer. One day, an assassin named Helter Skelter appears before Travis and the two face off in a battle. Travis emerges victorious and finds himself in the presence of Silvia Christel, a mysterious French woman who claims to be an agent with the UAA. Silvia gives Travis official rank of 11 in the organization. Now, it's up to you to become #1. No More Heroes takes place in the city of Santa Destroy, and you are free to explore the town to your liking, taking on missions large and small to collect money and purchase new weapons as you work up towards the 10 main killing contracts. Gameplay is all about using your Beam Katana (via Wii remote) to defeat enemies.

Rating: - Uber-Violent Fun
This is one of the few games I've enjoyed enough to finish the whole thing.Each level is absolute fun.The controls take a little while to get the hang of, but once you do it's very additive.Keep in mind this is VERY violent and parents should realize this is "R" before buying.If you are squeamish, don't get it.If you like big blasts of exploding victims then this is for YOU.My biggest complaint is it takes forever to get the $$ to go the next level.However, if it was *that* much easier ...

- If you like anime, blood and violence, you will love No More Heroes.
One of the biggest dissapointments of the wii console is the lack of good titles in its library, specially from third-party companies. This is when I trury appreciate the apparision of good titles.
No More Heroes is unique on its nature, being one of the best of the year 2008. Blood, crude mature humor and a manga style, make it an excellent option. The story of Travis Touchdown, a ciberpunk who buys his beam katana by ebay, looking for being the first ranked killer around the world. Inside ... Read More

- One of the worst games Ive ever played
Completely repetitive and formulaic.Its one of the worst games I have ever played.The blood is just ridiculous.I could see maybe some extra flash of gore on the boss kills, but every single enemy has their head cut off with a FOUNTAIN of blood.Gets old fast.

- Very Disappointing
Two things prompted me to purchase this game; the positive reviews from online gaming sites and the low price. What I ended up with is one of the most overrated games I have ever played. The game starts off well enough with a helpful tutorial. The fighting engine is interesting and puts the Wii remote to good use. Next, players are launched into the action exploring a mansion and testing out new skills. Right off the bat I was disappointed to see that players have essentially no interaction with the environment. ... Read More
Rating: - Hipster game requires lots of wrist arm movement
Lack of seriousness of the game and crazy wrist and arm movement is what turned me off to this game. I bought this game because of Gamespot's somewhat high review. The graphics are like Cel Shading.
I don't judge games on graphics but game play and immersion.
This game is Wii shovelware that trys to take advantage of wireless controls. You need to shake the controller for every kill in this game encounter which is ridiculous .
Save your 08 Christmas money...
