  • Abstract:  Desperate Struggle is so unpredictable it’s like the punch line to a parody of Japanese pop culture. Frantic and all over the map, it somehow makes it all work and gives Wii owners an amazing game for an older audience – a rare treat to find on Nintend...

  • Abstract:  Moving beyond the original game, “No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle” brings together 21st century gaming with classic retro gaming to create an interesting hybrid and mockery of Japanese pop culture... not that we're complaining. Incorporating the ...

  • Excellent presentation, some much-needed tweaks keep the gameplay fresh and innovative, addicting and original mini-games, killer soundtrack
  • Framerate chugs occasionally, combat can become repetitive, Shinobu's jumping mechanics are hit-and-miss, wonky camera
  • Quirky, crass, and incredibly fun, Suda51's stylish sequel to 2008's No More Heroes slashes its way onto the Wii with even more boss battles, much-improved gameplay, and loads of worthwhile new content...

  • It says a lot about a game when you find yourself forgiving flaws that would bury any other title. The 8-bit mini-games are worth the cover price alone.
  • The combat camera system can be horrific and some of the stages do drag on.

  • In conclusion, with No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle, everything that was wrong in the first game has been put right. The game has a lot of fan service with inside jokes and plenty of sexual references, particularly the one involving the wii mote a...

  • Those gamers will have definitely played the first No More Heroes, of course, which arguably makes a sequel rather redundant. Perhaps this is why Grasshopper saw fit to overhaul the game so completely, creating as many problems as have been fixed along...

  • Sharp, genuinely funny writing, Buckets of flying gore, 8bit jobs a welcome, welldesigned curveball
  • Shinobu's jumping puzzles are awful, A couple of the bosses are wicked cheap, Combat gets to be a slog toward the end

  • Outrageous Story and Characters, Great Action and Pacing, Mini-games
  • Some moments will just fly over your head, Graphical glitches
  • But best of all, scheduled ranking matches no longer require a registration fee. What was once a painful endurance in acquiring virtual bling through menial and sleep-inducing mini-games via a ghastly overworld chock full of mundane vistas and footwork...

  • witzige und übertriebene Story, coole Endbosskämpfe, absurde Situationskomik, unterhaltsame Kampfstile, schöne Animationen, verrückte Ideen, es gibt Lichtschwerter!, viele Verbesserungen zum ersten Teil, passende Musikuntermalung
  • öde, sich wiederholende Sprüche, leichte Grafikfehler, etwas unüberdachte Steuerung, frustrierende Kameraführung, fehlende Abwechslung der Spielumgebung

  • von Nils-Marten Hitzfeld Wenn ich das Spielgefühl von No More Heroes 2 in einem Satz beschreiben müsste, würde jener wahrscheinlich so aussehen: „No More Heroes 2 spielt sich wie Kill Bill auf LSD.“ Eine verrückte Welt voller durchgeknallter Charakte...
