Review - No More Heros (Wii)

Never in my live have I played a better terrible/awesome game. This game is, relatively speaking, on some sort of crystal meth/crack super-drug they’ve yet to inform me of. I want it.
So what the hell am I talking about? No More Heros is… lets see if I can sum this up. A game about an otaku nerd who gets a lightsaber and being psychotic, decides to become the best assassin in the area, (the area being "Santa Destroy, Callifronia"). What follows is one of the most hilarious RPGish hack n slash games I’ve ever played. We are talking sex jokes, death jokes, toilet jokes, drunk jokes, a cliche (sorta) master’s death, and ridiculous everything.
Thats not saying the game is ultra awesome. It is not. The controls are average, the graphics/art style is really good close quarters but falls apart at long ranges in the over world area. The combat works well and can at times actually require a bit of strategy and maneuvering. Also the voice work, sound effects are funny all very well cast and made. The music is good, but felt slightly repetitive it isn’t but if felt that way.
Overall its a good game (as in a 5/10 or so) filled with yummy bits of absolutely nonsense story and a ball bustlingly funny sense of humor. The jokes may not be up everyone’s ally, so be warned that its just a 4/10 game probably. However due to the amazing creativeness in this game I have to give it a 6/10. It doesn’t score higher than that because there is little to no re-playability.
I highly recommend this game. Hopefully people will buy it and encourage more creative work like this on the Wii.
