It's hardly a crucial matter, but after recently playing the European version of No More Heroes - the assassination actioner from Killer 7 creator Suda 51 - we're a bit miffed about the lack of bloody violence. Especially since Suda had always promised the game could be "even more violent than Manhunt 2".

Ah. But that appears to refer to the American version, which features decapitations, ludicrously brilliant fountains of blood and other ultraviolent combat consequences. In Europe, we'll be playing the 'dead bodies turn to black ash' version, which is also released in Japan.

Why? Well, we asked the chaps who showed us the game, from publisher Rising Star Games, if the decision had been influenced by the BBFC's refusal to grant Manhunt 2 a Euro release. "Maybe," was their terse answer. Hmmm.

Great, no blood confirmed in the PAL version of the game. Normally I am against blood in videogames, but anyone who's played Killer 7 will know its a HUGE part of the style in the game, and it looks to be the same in NMH too, so this SUCKS. I was really looking forward to the game too, but there's no way i'm buying a watered down version of it. The publisher should grow some balls, Killer 7 got through just fine, this would easily have too.

Wow that is quite lame, it isn't even like NMH is that gory taken in context with its graphical style. It is no GTA or Manhunt.

I hope the NA version has the option to turn off the blood, I also want to play this game with the stylized blood which looks cool.

Wait what?

Caliban wants the option to play with blood or the Wind Waker-esque particle effect, which is something I'd like too... =)

Yes. Yes, I do.

Oh god. N-europe is reporting censoring of the western release. This is… this is horrible, I feel personally betrayed.

North America is the only region that gets the original version: CONFIRMED.

i wanted to post this a few days ago, the day after this happened..

i think my medication is screwin with my dreams cuz lately i've had some really weird ones and the one i'm going to share is NMH related.

So in it i'm Travis from the game and i find myself in this weird indian-type palace and im getting in some boss fight, win and a bunch of haram girls come out and start belly dancing for me then outta no where kittens start biting the hell out of my toes (why wasnt i wearing shoes/socks?) and i wake up, startled.. which wakes up my gf next to me. she asks whats wrong and i explain the dream and she has no idea who Travis or NMH is, but she laughs that i dreamt that kittens were biting my toes.

think the weirdness ends there? NO! my toes hurt as if being bitten! then we went back to sleep.

the end

Dreams are affected by outside influences, not the other way around... ='D

EasyCure · « **Reply #436 on:** December 12, 2007, 12:06:46 PM »

but there was nothing outside of my dream that was biting my toes!

Your GF?

Nice. I can't wait to confirm that your dream was true.

Kittens aren't evil. They would never bite your toes. I spider would, but not a kitten, nope.

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #439 on:** December 12, 2007, 12:53:14 PM »

Kittens will bite pretty much anything.

Not out of malice, but simply because they know they can get away with it because they're so damn cute.

Caliban · « **Reply #440 on:** December 12, 2007, 01:07:35 PM »

Wait a minute...now that I remember, there is a cute kitten in NMH, hmm interesting.

I've only had kittens either bite each other when they were playing, or when they would be munching on a freshly hunted wild rabbit brought by their mother with their faces covered in fresh blood, or when they would nibble my hands in sign of affection. They are more prone to use their paw claws, at least that's what I think.

Looks like a halogen tube

Much better box art than the JP one...

Agreed.

He's giving me an Egon from Ghostbusters vibe and that's not a bad thing.
