There's also the goofy preorder/first-run-only bonus in Japan that is the extra beam weapon that Travis can wield, like the Beam-Feather-Duster. Anything about that in the European version?

NMH controlled best on the Wii, that's why. Still the best use of the Wii remote in anything ever.

Aren't the Move controls basically the same? I don't see the reason why someone would now only recommend the Wii version after the release of the Red Zone PS3 / US&PAL Heroes' Paradise edition.
the forbidden view mode isn't in the european version yet,it will be upcoming dlc

I imagine they'll need you to use a DS3/SA for the left hand instead, unless they have some sort of hybrid motion where you use the Move wand for the right hand but still use the analog on the Navcon like it were in controller mode.
I mean, I don't own a Navcon so I'll be using a DS3 anyway, so I'm hoping playing this way will still work like the Wii controls.

Anyone that have it, how bad is the screen tearing? A review said its in the game. If its really bad, I'll pass on this.

Carl said:Haven't really noticed any, but then i never notice screen tearing or framerate drops unless they are incredibly bad, so i'm probably not the most trustworth person
Do you have a big TV? I guess it can be easier to notice on bigger screens. Mines a 32" 720P samsung.

If you've got a PAL Wii No More Heroes is censored which is reason enough never to recommend it.

Well, it's both good and bad that it's censored. The good part is that it runs better thanks to the black effect doesn't bog down the Wii as much as all the blood splatter. The bad part is that the boss cutscenes are censored.Gokurakumaru said:

Played it a few days back. The presentation is stylish and accesible. It's really over the top in terms of violence and gore, full of dirty schoolboy humour. The combat is actually pretty fun, although having to perform a finisher on every enemy was a bit tiresome, as was the way every enemy used the same death meme. It's definatley enjoyable and felt like a true guilty pleasure. A game I'd most certainley pick up in a sale, but wouldn't recommend at full price.Mesijs said:
Weird, didn't notice any tearing in the demo. Maybe the demo was super optimized, or I was just having to much fun watching heads explode.Jigsaw said:
i've completed the game yesterday,the new missions are pretty cool,there is a particular one where the game goes dead rising on your ass with like 50 enemies on screen,game drops down to 5fps though when they all explode at the same time xD
tearing is really really bad,i think i've never seen a game tearing that bad ever before,you have constantly double and triple tearing in the same screen,at least it looks like that,even when nothing happens in the game

I forgot to post my impressions when I got this.
I've played the original Wii release, the Japanese Heroes' Paradise and this new version.
Compared to the Japanese Heroes' Paradise, this one is a massive improvement. Load times are much shorter, graphics are much cleaner and the colours are much more vibrant, something that was off with the original PS3 release. They've also fixed the shadows in general; the self shadowing in the original release looked awful, it's much more muted and natural now.
Only minus point is the screen tearing. It's noticable, but honestly, it never got so much that it was a problem. And this is coming from a PC gamer who forces V-Sync or D3D on everything I can.
So yeah, grab this version. Also, to quote Eurogamer's amazing review:
Quoted.

There's definitely tearing in the demo, but it's all at the very, very top of the screen so it's understandable that you didn't notice it.
I played through the demo with the Move controller, but not sure how I feel about it yet. The updated graphics are really nice and being uncensored is also great. The censorship in the PAL Wii was terrible and really ruined most of the boss cutscenes.
One issue I had with the Move controller was doing the battery charging motions felt really janky and didn't always register. I don't remember it being that way in the Wii version. I also wish that the Move controller had a speaker like the Wii remote. The phone conversations before the boss fights just aren't the same without it and I also miss how some of the beam katana sound effects would make use of it.
I haven't tried playing with the Dualshock yet, so might try that later today. I think I'll probably pick this version up after the price drops a bit.

I'm playing through it right now, and it controls great with the Dual Shock. Will probably try using Move at some point, but I'm not overly fond of Sony's motion controller to begin with.
The third ranked fight is giving me a hard time, though. I think I've retried this fight seven times and still counting. Can't remember having this much trouble with the original. Any tips for this fight? I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong.
(Btw, there were no pedestrians in the original right, or am I imagining that the city looks a bit more alive than on the Wii?)

I love the Wii version, and as awesome as the Wii controls are, I don't see this working on the PS3.
With Move, maybe.
Also, NMH2 isn't aging well. Everything about it makes me miss NMH1.

It had really poor animations and camera views. I also disliked the flows of battles, it just doesn't seem fluid and the game forces you to click R3 every single time, meaning you have to quickly place your thumb correctly or you will just push that thing to the left and losing your kill opportunity. I have more fun watching the bosses die on Youtube. :l

I played the demo as well and except for the slight roll when I want to kill slash because of the analog sticks, I thought the controls were fine. The visuals are an improvement obviously, but they lose some style. Things look like they are shining so to speak. Still it was fun and I will no doubt pick it up and play with the regular PS3 controller.

you mean shinobu?i had the same problem,once her hp went almost down she used instant kill crap on me (on easy!),i almost threw my controller at the tv in rage after 3 tries...in score attack later you can kill her in 40 seconds,really weird
some bosses are really frustrating,you beat the crap out of them and then they use some bs quick time event and it's game over

I don't think you con configure buttons and you don't have to play with the motion controls.GrayFoxPL said:
