OMG! LOOKS AWESOME! Looks set to be the best game on Wii so far if it's anywhere near as good as Killer 7. Watching this trailer normally if I hadn't played Killer 7 I wouldn't care so much for it, but the fact that it makes no sense confirms it to be just like K7, plus the guys name is Travis in that, could it be -the- Travis? I wonder how the gameplay's going to work in this one? Hopefully they stick with the simplified route in Killer 7, or still keep it simple somehow. I'm guessing we'll be able to swing that lightsabre around ourselves!
It needs to look less like a generic anime though, and more like the realistic unrealistic awesomeness of Killer 7.

I'm picking up a copy of Killer 7 later today for $10.
I've never played it, but any time I tried to rent it, friends tackled me to the ground like I was about to leap off a bridge, shouting things like "Don't do it! You have so much to live for!" That plus the horrid reviews led me to avoid the game.
But I've heard many people love the game despite most hating it, so I'm going to try it for myself to see what all the damn fuss is about. For $10, it's not like I've much to lose.

I could see how some people wouldn't really "get it", but I think everyone should at least try it out. (Well, okay, everyone 17+.)
I still don't get the fine plot details (though it's not hard to find plot analyses on GameFAQs, etc., that are surprisingly in-depth) but I do love it because it's so unconventional and different. And besides the story, the gameplay is too. As Pro666 said, it's at least vivid and entertaining, something games of generic genres less often are these days.
(Ironically, perhaps,) I wouldn't mind more of the same, or something similar, in HeROes.
DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND PLAY KILLER7. NOW.

Anyway, if nothing else is in common, I'm glad we're getting another game with a similar graphic style. I was surprised to find that Killer 7 looked quite a bit more appealing in motion than it did in screenshots. I guess that generally is the case, though.

I thought I read that Killer7 had only sold ten thousand copies (I'm sure this was at some point in time, it's probably much higher by now, I hope). Which is pathetic if true. I thought even mediocre games could easily do multiple times that much.
Any unique, stylized, and challenging game really should do better than any same-old genre, same-old gameplay, same-old story game.
Post by: NinGurl69 *huggles on July 25, 2006, 07:23:08 AM
on many E3 2005 press releases, Capcom wrote the title as "killer7," lowercase no space, which is how I like it.

Yup, but like I said, I was on my way to rent it a few times and I had a friend literally stop me.
Played 3-4 hours into it so far and here's my take:
This game would have done INFINITELY better if the huge chunk of storyline which we're treated to after the first chapter had come instead BEFORE the first chapter.
My guess is that 90% of the reviewers who harped on this game did so because they got stuck in the first section of the game with the egg layer, had no real story to help them understand who they were or why they were here, and gave up on the game, giving it a 5 of 10 or worse, on average.
The game is presented very much like an esoteric anime, the kind which is dark and confusing at first but becomes clearer as you watch. The problem with putting this presentation into a game is that the natural progression of the game happens slower: if you simply sit there and watch the anime long enough, things will become clear. In K7, you need to play far enough into the game to see the story unfold and without a storyline to enforce their actions, most players might simply decide the game is crap, especially if they don't KNOW the story is coming.
When I first played it, I actually DIDN'T like it. I had this weird guy in a red suit telling me random crap and a clunky interface which didn't exactly cross me as enjoyable. For some reason, I had this overwhelming desire to put the game down and never play it again simply because the game basically tosses you in the water and hopes you swim in the very beginning. I'm certain this killed it for many potential players and reviewers alike. I actually had 2-3 people in the room with me and I gauged their reactions from it: they seemed to have the exact same reaction that I did, initially being put off by the game and even making negative comments about it but becoming interested once the storyline picked up.
I like it so far, especially as the story unfolds, and the voice acting is indeed top notch, but I just can't shake the feeling that the game would have done infinitely better had the player been given a large chunk of the story right up front (the "intro" scene where it explains how the world did away with terrorism before the advent of the Heaven Smiles would have given not only some substance to the story but to the protagonist as well). IMHO, this would have been enough to motivate the player to push on and learn the game mechanics a little better before passing judgment on it.
Though, the game's poor performance doesn't seem to have stopped Suda 51 from making another game (which looks like it might be a prequel to Killer7, what with Travis being Harman's first kill and all...). To be honest, I'm excited about this one because I'm hoping Suda will use the freedom of the Wiimote to add more gameplay to the game than K7 has.
While I like the game, I think the gameplay could have used some more substance. The gameplay itself isn't bad, there's just not enough of it.
Also, anyone else pick up on the Resident Evil influence of the game? I don't just mean the puzzles, but the enemy confrontations and load screens are all very RE-esque.

Its story pacing and timing are intentional, because it truly is an uphill climb. Smash is only close enough to realize there's a mountain.
"Also, anyone else pick up on the Resident Evil influence of the game? I don't just mean the puzzles, but the enemy confrontations and load screens are all very RE-esque."
I'd rather traverse the RE1 mansion with killer7's control scheme. Ditch the running/steering, just give me straight-up puzzles and first-person targetting combat.

The regenerators in RE4 still take the cake, IMO, for the freakiest enemy in any game I've played, although the Bone Thieves in ED get an honorable mention.

I actually found it rather compeling that so much was so vague in the beginning. There were so many questions, I wanted to keep playing just to find out what the hell was going on. No one ever explicitly explains everything to you because they talk as if they're addressing Garcian, not the player. The game maintains a sense of discovery in the player all throughout the game.

Originally posted by: SixthAngel I don't think that heroes is any kind of prequel to killer7. I believe the ghost guys name is Travis Bell in killer seven and not Travis Touchdown. It would be worth putting him in as a character as long as he has all of his awesome shirts. Also the top seven assassins in heroes would all be the same person.
*bit of a spoiler ahead*
It was Travis Bell, but I've no reason to believe that the name "Touchdown" is his actual last name. I don't think "Helter Skelter" is the other guy's real name, either.
If you remember from the game, Travis was Harman's first kill, 30 years prior to when Killer7 takes place, meaning that Travis has been dead for a while. If the game Heroes does indeed star Travis and he climbs his way to the top and becomes the best killer in the world, I can only assume that this was before Harman takes the top spot by killing him, and given that Travis was Harman's first kill, it means that Harman is currently the uncontested best hitman in the world.
The Travis in this video looks just like the Travis from the game, right down to the t-shirt and hair. Ask yourself this: Suda could have picked thousands of names for this character: Trit Touchdown, Tony Touchdown, etc.
He wouldn't pick the name Travis unless he intended to make a connection between the two games.
Post by: Mario on July 26, 2006, 07:13:27 AM
Travis in the Heroes trailer also has a pink shirt. It's as good as confirmed for me, and if it's not him, it's a cool reference or whatever.
Post by: Smash_Brother on July 26, 2006, 07:59:26 AM
1. The game is once again about professional killers.
2. The graphical style is the same (only enhanced for the Wii), indicating that we're talking about the same universe.
3. Travis bears the same physique, hair and t-shirts as the Travis in Killer7.
4. The references are very 70s (Travis is dressed like he's from the 70s to boot).
5. Suda wouldn't have used the name "Travis" unless he intended to make some kind of reference to Killer7's Travis.
6. The story fits perfectly to indicate that this is a prequel.
EDIT: I'm pretty sure Travis makes references to being a killer in K7 as well, but I could be wrong.

Post by: WalkingTheCow on September 23, 2006, 12:33:21 PM
". . . According to the development team, the Wii is a perfect fit for Heroes. They had the idea of the game before the Wii existed, but once they saw what the Wii could do…especially the Wiimote, they knew they had to make Heroes for the Wii. Grasshopper is going to release the title in 2007, and as soon as possible. They think, due to the nature of the gameplay, that sales of 1 million units will be possible."
So. We learn that they mean for it to release suprisingly soon, they felt the Wii controller would be perfect for the gameplay ideas they had, and that said gameplay is apparentlly more accessible as they believe they can sell it well.
Huh.
Post by: Luigi Dude on September 23, 2006, 01:16:40 PM
I think a game like this selling around 300,000 copies would be more accurate if it's a success, and alot better then Killer 7 did.

I don't think a million worldwide is out of the question, but it's highly unlikely, especially for a game like this. I dunno, we'll see. Best of luck to them, though, they deserve it.

Correct me if I'm wrong but aside from a few things (like the music) that looks like the same trailer that was released at E3. I even ran them side by side and the only differences, that I saw, were that Helter Skelter's head didn't pop of and spew blood like in the E3 one, the music, and Travis's "Your fine words..." line was a little deeper. But I'm really looking forward to this game, so I hope we do get some new trailers for it soon.

This is why Hereos is going to have a hard time archieving huge sales since right now it's a game that appeals to a niche market. Unless Suda can somehow get Nintendo to help with the marketing of the game which I dont see happening, the game has no chance of mass market appeal.

Either way, though, this is art we're talking about, not everyday life. While people's expectations might make it difficult to never self-censor at least a little bit and still function in society, art shouldn't be concerned with such things. If art isn't available for unbridled expression, what else is?
Post by: Hostile Creation on September 24, 2006, 11:10:18 PM
I don't think the game needs to be violent and bloody to be good. I think it will be both of those things even if they do censor it some, and it'll at least be teen (I still expect mature, just not the bloodbath Killer 7 was), but censoring one's self can be put to good use.
It's certainly better than being censored by someone else, when the creator can't choose what is important and what isn't.
Post by: Smoke39 on September 24, 2006, 11:17:25 PM
Killer 7 rarely struck me as particularly bloody, actually, because the blood was usually so abstract and unrealistic. Sorta like the excessive blood sprays in Kill Bill. It seemed less like gore and more like a comical visual cue.

Also, Travis Touchdown's voice is different in the new trailer. His acting is slightly less cheesy/annoying, while the original one was more overly dramatic yet fitting for his face.

Can they name it that? If Biohazard had to become Resident Evil because of a rock band with that name or whatever, wouldn't Heroes have the same difficulty keeping its name because of the TV show?

Cell shading FTW. Cell shaded games are proven to be at least ten times prettier then non-cell shaded games. And cell shaded lightsabers? Fuhgettaboudit!
This game has officially joined the ranks with the obvious first party offerings as one of my most anticipated games for the Wii.

It's nice to see a game based on the conventions of good anime for a change. Complete with terrible dubbing.

If you did, you would have noticed that Helter Skelter's head was still attached to his body in the original trailer despite the fact that he was decapitated. Check out the part where Sylvia comes in and kicks the dead body.
I always liked that part. We see his head come off and the blood spew out in the reflection on the side of a building, but then in "reality" we see that the head didn't actually come off. But then again, I'm just weird.

Anyway, this sounds pretty good. One thing I took notice of was that the game isn't considered part of the Killer 7 series...Capcom already owns that. So it seems like this will be vaguely connected to Killer 7 at best. I'm interested to see how the controls turn out given how Killer 7 played. I like the art style even more. It seems sharper and a little less bizarre and abstract.

You're right, this opens up a whole new angle. Now what does Destroy mean? Well, Troy is Troy, of course, and "des" is "of the" in German. So your opponents will be Trojan saints! They'll be all like, yo, I'm a trojan, and a saint, be-otch! I beat you to death with my crucifix-spear! Yeah, I'll stick my rosy fingers of dawn right up your wine-dark sea, you unrepentent fornicator!
But how could Trojans be saints, you wonder? With a time-traveling machine. Just before Troy got sacked, they escaped into the future, converted to Catholicism, and became professional killers. Of demons, of course. Which means you must be a demon.
So, to sum up: you play a demon fighting time-traveling Trojan saints with a light-saber. Now, you can all bask in the radiance of my genius.
