A satire game of gamers and society?
I know some fanboys that will be happy to see a german guy in the game, not like Sal or ppl that get proud when they see things like the logo of this T-shirt :P
hey hey I am from poland :P just living here haha
Seems like you are quite right with it Xed.

Another thing to be noticed is that No More Heroes is the exact opposite of F.S.R.
In NMH Travis wants to escape from LIFE to reach PARADISE.
In FSR Sumio wants to escape from PARADISE to return to LIFE.
(Drunkee once pointed out this.)
To be noticed that in FSR there's no explicit violent, the graphic style is (insert an ajective, I really don't know how to describe it) and everything looks sweet and good (this is just a facade, in fact edo is a goddamn terrorist, LOL).
NMH, on the other hand, is extremely vulgar & violent, and Santa Destroy really sucks. (ok, I'm not talking about the budget, it not sucks in that way. I mean, it sucks also in that way, but i wasn't taliking about that. What I'm saying is that Santa Destroy is a "realistic" and "normal" town, with cars, a stadium, a school etc., and it rapresents life, when lospass resort is a perfect island and it rapresents paradise)
Death Metal's house looks like the hotel F.S.R. (within the other things) and Travis says that it is paradise, so we assume that Hotel F.S.R. is the rapresentation of paradise, and so the rapresentation of Travis' goal, to reach the paradise.
I need to change pusher. This one gives me too much strong shit.

And whats the only way to escape from paradise?death?
SPOILERS
-Why Darkstar says hes Travis father, besides Star Wars reference?. He obviously wasnt his father yet he kept claiming it and also knew about Travis past.
Was Darkstar himself beign controlled by his true father's soul? Why doe he show Travis his face?
-Why Death Metal was so excited about getting killed?
-Whats up with Thunder Ryu's ghost?
more question whore to come

I just finished the game, but im wondering about something about the ending
*obvious spoilers*
I noticed something with the Garcian intrusion scene. On close inspection of the Real Ending, i found that he had a book tucked into his pants near his hip. I decided to watch it again but on the Normal Ending, and noticed it wasn't there. Strange.
So i booted the Real Ending again, and try to take a look at the cover, and just managed to make out "~Water~". The font looked awfully familiar, thats when i realised:
Could it be another NMH/FSR connection? The Lospass Resort guidebook?
And thank god Suda said that NMH is an independent game. I would've been so disappointed if Garcian (after all his journey and rebirth) was just slayed down by some stupid otaku's brother in the middle of nowhere for no purpose.

hey hey I am from poland :P just living here haha
Seems like you are quite right with it Xed.xD I thought you were from germany
Could it be another NMH/FSR connection? The Lospass Resort guidebook?
I was thinking that NMH was supposed to be in the Kill the past series but Suda changed his mind, he wants to do a trilogy of this game.
-Why Death Metal was so excited about getting killed?
Death Metal said he is freed from desire, he does not care about dying or paradise. Maybe he knows that there is not death, what he will do to be happy? nothing, he does not need that

Well, I finally finished the game to its fullest.
The plot is pretty simple, problem came when those game and movie cliches are actually used to move the plot forward.
Anyway I gues the plot barely matters in this game, considering all the unanswered stuff.
SPOILERS
-What was that scene after the credits rolled about?
-Why the hell Dark Star helps travis remember his past, is his face magic or something?
Not a questions but I really laughed when I tough of Dr. Shake as a parody of Xbox

-What was that scene after the credits rolled about?
I really cant say. I can't understeand it too.
-Why the hell Dark Star helps travis remember his past, is his face magic or something?
I think he just looked like his father.
Not a questions but I really laughed when I tough of Dr. Shake as a parody of Xbox
LOL, actually Letz Shake also refers to the cell processor, and the guy uses the virtual boy to lock on the targets XD

Now I understand the whole last scene, i think...
maybe its a cliche on suffering-character-being-reborn, seriously they pull this shit alot in anime (and I hate it with passion)
Now that Ive seen Jeane's speech slowed down, and remembering Thunder Ryu's whole word plays, suggesting he has sex with Travis, makes me think that Travis could have gone trough the same as Jeane to become an asassin
BTW, I hear that Travis wants to find the exit to Paradise, but he says something in the end
Travis: Then let's find that exit they call Paradise.
Is it my bad english or he said paradise is the exit itself?

Im totally clueless about this:
What does Sylvia mean with "Garden of Madness"?
EDIT: ive noticed that when Travis meets Dr. Peace, you can see a huge, red fullmon on the sky.

I got this game at last...
On the first mission I started on sweet went to the office room with 2 doors on either side, when I killed everyone I couldn't go anywhere, I reckon it was a bug but whatever didn't get much time to play but liking it so far.
Xed- 04-12-2008
After that room you just have to go backtrack to the first room of the level.
PhasE- 04-12-2008
Yeah I did, but the door to the entrance was still shut.
No problem now, I restarted on the next difficulty.
PhasE- 04-17-2008
Right, I was expecting this game to be a normal hack and slash game with style.
The ending took me completely off guard, I liked it!
One thing about the US and uncensored version is that there are certain points where people's limbs are cut off and some people's don't.
*Spoilers*
ie. Shinobu having her arm decapitated and returns later with the hand intact, I played the PAL version and her hand was never cut off. I reckon the US version was just a gorified patch so Jeane's arm mustn't have been cut off either but who cares...
Sylvia's view of Travis change's on Rank 4 fight, notably when she says Travis has a chance of success. Dunno if this means much.
Well I can't wait for NMH2, supporting it all the way!
