No More Heroes 2 - gameplay walkthrough with Suda 51



The good stuff keeps pouring in for this game. It seems that just about every aspect from the first game has been improved on and then some. Suda's ideas are really wacky and abstract and it's amazing that he gets to put all of them into his own game and get away with it!

No More Heroes 2 - video interviews with "the man" Suda 51



Suda 51 is great, he understands the true essence of what is means to me a hardcore gamer. I can't wait to finally play No More Heroes 2 and enjoy the new yet nostalgic gameplay.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories - video reviews



If you are late to the party and haven't had a chance to play Silent Hill on the Wii, I suggest picking it up. The game has multiple endings (more than 3) and really makes you think about the role of each character in the game. I won't give anything more away, you'll just have to go play the game.

Well here's your chance Third Parties, now do something about it!

Mega Man 10 coming to WiiWare

"It will be WiiWare and keep the 8-bit style. 360 and PS3 seems likely, but I was only outright told WiiWare.
It will have no relation to Mega Man X (just pointing this out, since some people might think they might choose to do that with X equating to 10.)
Both Mega Man and Proto Man are playable (it appears Proto Man will be unlockable, or become available at some point midway through the game.)
There will be DLC to play as Bass. His gameplay will be based on how he played in Mega Man & Bass.

The ’story’ is basically as such: Robots get a virus that makes them sick. Roll catches it, Mega Man has to get Wily’s help to find a cure (Wily claims he has nothing to do with it, but… yeah), and the 8 bosses each hold part of the cure.

And here is the biggy… it will be two players. No idea if story mode will be two people, or if there will be some specialized two player mode though.

And oh yes… it’s far enough along that it is already being translated into English."

I loved Mega Man 9 (really hard game) and thought it was a fresh entry to the series. Are you guys looking forward to this one also?

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom - new gameplay video



If you've played the Japanese version you'd know that the music was for the most part character specific, changing songs when you switched between them. It seems (at least on this level) that it is now stage specific. A lot of changes are being made to the US version, we'll have to wait and see if it's for the better or not.

No More Heroes 2 - workout trailer



Is this game going to be great or what? If any of you haven't had a chance to play the first No More Heroes, I suggest you go out and find it and play through it before trying the new one; it's worth your time believe me.

Show me your Nintendo soap!


You know news is slow when I'm resorting to posting about Nintendo controller soap. It's funny how people will do/make anything if they really like it. I'm not too sure how this "works" but you can buy them at the following link:

Four pack of NES Controller soap

Final Fantasy CC: The Crystal Bearers - new trailer



I think this year is turning out pretty good for Wii owners. November had Call of Duty MWR, NSMBWii and Resident Evil DSC; while December has Silent Hill and Final Fantasy. Not bad at all. These games should keep any Wii owner busy at least until January when No more Heroes 2 is released.

Angry Video Game Nerd - Little Red Hood



How about some Friday fun. What do you guys think of the Angry Video Game Nerd? I've always liked him since he's so intense about how crappy some of those old games were. Enjoy.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories - trailer montage



Was that song made for the game? I really don't know, but it sounds very fitting and not half bad. This is a nice trailer that really shows that this is a quality title with a lot of attention to detail.
