“If I become number one, will you do it with me?”
Leon, Darren Forman, Josh and Sinan Kubba discuss the tenth game by Goichi Suda’s Grasshopper Manufacture – No More Heroes. The Wii original game released in 2007/2008 to some critical acclaim but pitiful sales. Since then this game has become something of a cult classic rewarded with an HD update in the shape of Heroes’ Paradise and a sequel – Desperate Struggle – also covered in this podcast.

I’m with Leon with most of my plentiful criticisms of both games.
Suda has a good and unique imagination, with a bit of rebellious/uncensorship characteristics about him, but they are almost always not expressed or implemented well. Too often its childish, mindless and contradictive.
Again, good imagination though.
p.s More Sinan is always a good thing.
Yeah we love Sinan. If he didn’t have his fingers in so many pies I’d happily have him as a regular C&R contributor.
