A fantastic game, held back by some frustrating design decisions. For every moment spent whooping in delight as you vanquish a foe, you'll spend two more grimacing as you have to mow someone's lawn, or try and pry yourself free from a lamppost. When it's good it's almost unbeatable, but the filler in-between is exactly that.

Part of what makes No More Heroes so enjoyable is the nearly nonsensical story, which is still intact here. There's lots of fourth wall-breaking going on by all parties, and a whole lot of pokes at popular culture and various geek loves, like Star Wars, Transformers, and others.
