Grasshopper Manufacture is one of my favorite game developers. Purveyors of cool, cult games that get the blood pumping while providing plenty of WTF moments.
No More Heroes made a splash early in the Wii's life cycle and it was well received. The main protagonist, Travis Touchdown is the perfect anti-hero for this violent and crazy adventure. The waggle controls were well-implemented and there were some humorous though dirty moments here.
A sequel followed soon after. Treading mostly similar ground with a few improvements in some areas, slightly better graphics, an extra playable character and more insane bosses. Unfortunately, the open-world, sandbox map was replaced with a menu system that ruined the experience somewhat.
Personally I loved the first No More Heroes so much, that I also bought the HD release for the PS3. No More Heroes 2 isn't bad either but lacks some of the magic of the first one.
What are your thoughts - which No More Heroes do you prefer the most?
