No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise - Playstation 3

I'm became a huge Suda 51 fan after purchasing and playing Killer 7 and Shadows Of The Damned. I wanted to play No More Heroes but I didn't owned a Wii. Another funny thing that is I didn't even know that No More Heroes on the Wii was being remade for PS3 with HD graphic and using PS Move. I soon brought the game on Amazon when I heard that game was already out. I was very satisfied when I play No More Heroes:Heroes Paradise. The control with the PS Move was great and easy to get into.Plus,You can use your regular PS controller if you don't own the PS Move(It way more funnier using the PS Move!!) The game graphic isn't cutting edge but the crazy style that this game has will make You less care about the graphic. The plot line of this game is very simple. Your Travis Touchdown and you need to kill the top 10 assassin to be number 1. This isn't going to be a easy task completing because each boss you go against will get tougher to beat. Also, keep in mind that you will have to do work task or do assassination task to make money for entry fees that allow you to fight the bosses and make progress in the game. You can ride on Travis motorcycle to get to stores, job tasks, assassination tasks, main story missions and etc. The combat in No More Heroes: Heroes Paradise is extremely fun and can get very gory in a heartbeat. The AI is good and will give you one hell of a fight. The PS3 version also get five boss battle straight from No More Heroes 2 and can be access at certain saves point of the game and there is now option to replay any cut scene and boss battle any time. Plus, there a Time Attack mode,Very Sweet difficult and DLC at the PSN. No More Heroes: Heroes Paradise is great game to purchase if you looking for something different.

I first beat this game at a friends house back when it came out for the Nintendo Wii. I thought this game was amazing because of how unusual its style was. The cut scenes were hilarious, the game play was especially fun, and it became a very memorable game to me.After hearing about the sequel, I was tempted to purchase a Nintendo Wii just to get both No More Heroes games. This did not seem like too strong of an incentive to do so. I did buy a PlayStation 3 down the line and when I heard about this game being ported for the PlayStation 3, I knew right there and then I made the right choice in not buying a Nintendo Wii JUST for this game series. It was great to have a reason to play and beat this game again (I even got the Platinum trophy because I love this game so much!).It was also a breath of fresh air to be able to switch back and forth from Move to DualShock 3, since my arm got really tired after several hours of game play with the Move.Overall, this was a great purchase and I eagerly wait for the sequel!

So I've been playing this game for a couple of hours and I think I'm ready to lay down my verdict. I had been anticipating this game for quite some time, as I had never had the chance to play through the Wii version. In some respects I am very disappointed, but the game does deliver in others.I'm an optimist, so let's start with the good. Quite frankly, this game has some of the best cutscenes I've ever seen in a video game. I'm saying that while openly stating that the graphics are pretty awful for a PS3 game. However, the sense of humor and style in each of the boss scenes will at the very least elicit a chuckle out of you, which is something that most new games fail to do. I openly cracked up laughing during one of the scenes when Travis is asked if he feels fear, and his response is "Wouldn't know, never felt it." It's somewhat reminiscent of the movie Kill Bill, except with more humor and less intellectualism. In addition, the boss battles are truly entertaining. There's a great deal of variety, and each boss has his/her own distinct sense of style. You have 10 assassins to kill to get to the top, and you'll have a blast with every single one of them.Now let's get to the bad. Quite frankly, any battle that isn't a boss fight is dreadfully boring. It essentially boils down to hold down the lock on button to block every single attack (there's almost no reason to let go of this button ever) and then spam buttons until the enemies die. The motion gimmick where you flick the controller in a direction to finish off an enemy may have been fun when the Wii was new, but now it's just a jarring and unwelcome interruption during combat. Pretty much every fight boils down to holding down L2, and spamming triangle and square until everything dies. I got so bored, I was literally watching youtube videos while playing the levels leading up the bosses. With the combat out of the way, No More Heroes has its own city which you can navigate in a GTA style fashion. Except...there's no reason for the city to be there at all because there's NOTHING in it. If there are only a few places you can visit (less than 10), why bother creating a huge city to house it? They might as well just have designed the city like your bedroom, and have you just select the destination. The sandbox style city construction isn't conducive to anything when there's absolutely nothing to do in the sandbox... Another gripe of mine is the saving. It's a huge pain in the ass. To save, you have to enter a restroom. It takes about 10 seconds just to enter the restroom, then it has to load, then you have to watch another 10 seconds of Travis sitting down on the toilet, and then toilet paper wrapping across the screen. Then you press save, and it takes 20-30 seconds at times, then you have to watch him stand back up, it has to load again, and then you'll reappear at the main screen. Saving shouldn't be a two minute endeavor! The game wasn't hard enough to justify saving since I wouldn't die, and I hated dealing with saving so much that I would only save when I was planning to turn the game off. It doesn't need to be that damn annoying!So anyways, this is a lengthy review so I'll try to sum it up. If you're the kind of gamer that actually loves watching cutscenes (think Metal Gear), you'll probably enjoy this game because the cutscenes are quite amusing. And basically, that's what this games boils down to. I found myself playing just because I wanted to see the cutscenes, and the actual game itself was just a punishment I had to endure before watching the scenes. I know, I know, I could just youtube the cutscenes but for some inexplicable reason my brain tells me that that would be "cheating." The boss battles are an exception of course, the boss battles are fantastic. With that said, if you're the kind of gamer who hates cutscenes, repetitive gameplay, or button-mashing style beat em ups, this game is really not for you. I can almost guarantee that you will hate it. 90% of the game really does boil down to holding the lock on button and mashing on square and triangle.With that said, I hope this review was helpful, I know the diehard No More Heroes fans out there will want to murder me but I tried to be as objective as possible.

Amazing game specially with the ps move and to find it in 2025 brand new, it's awesome

I own the original PS3, with the SIXAXIS controller. And I cannot play this game. After a lengthy install it tells me I can't play with the "navigation" controller, even though I'm using a full controller. Apparently, it is impossible to play this game without a newer "Dualshock" controller or the move controller. As I don't want to spend $50-100 on a new controller for one game, this is a nice coaster.It's a shame, because I love the Wii version and I was really looking forward to this remake.
