this is embarassing.

 

[toastyToast]

I'm absolutely flabbergasted.

That's a good sign.

 

[digita1alchemy]

I am this game's target demographic.

 

[LiK]

this is embarassing.

Embarrassingly delicious

 

[ussjme]

the random belt head has sold me. will get when it hits 39.99

 

[PixyJunket]

I need this game in my life NOW NOW NOW.

Please let me pre-order the deluxe super edition already.

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

It's nice to see they didn't just steal the Simple 2000 naming convention.

Now hopefully the game will be good dumb fun like Onechanbara. Unfortunately I haven't played a fun game by these guys so I'm not counting on it. :|

 

[rikichi]

UGGGHHNNNNN

AARGHGHHHH

 

[Jinaar]

My shame will be palatable when I buy this.

 

[Typographenia]

San Romero Knights?

I guess we're getting another west coast locale.
Perhaps there will be mention of Santa Destroy at some point in the game? Maybe there will be a visit there? Oh man, I want this to do a NMH cameo segment so bad, hahaha!

 

[JordanLMiller]

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[MidnightScott]

I doubt it will come to America so you'll be importing it online

It has been trademarked in the US. Reminds me of No More Heroes so much. Will probably buy it.

 

[near]

This is pretty much all that Japanese devs have to offer these days. Disappointed.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Grasshopper = best JP dev, bitches

Platinum IMO

 

[Chairhome]

I am interested. I will probably have to get it from Amazon depending on the box art. haha.

Not looking forward to the "head" sidekick which will provide comic relief, most likely. :-(

 

[Tagg9]

You just know this game will do gangbusters in Japan.

 

[Hypereides]

This game has a photo mode guaranteed... that or some kind of action replay feature.

 

[electroplankton]

Well she's a cheerleader, what else is she going to wear?

I'm tired of this kind of protagonist -a naked witch, a cheerleader, Catherine- or characters -very few games have strong and not clichéed female characters-, that's all.
Suda is trying to promote No More Heroes on PS3 with these stuffs as well.

 

[LiK]

I hope the head will be voiced by Nolan North. Looks a bit like Drake, lol

 

[sixteen-bit]

You just know this game will do gangbusters in Japan.

Like Oneechanbara, right?

 

[Dizzy-4U]

Will buy!

1. Zombies first appear in Juliet's school on her 18th birthday. Don't worry -- it's totally okay to take a peek!

2. Juliet is a cheerleader at her school.

3. Juliet's school, San Romero Highschool, is located on the West Coast (that would be of America, I believe) and is the largest school in the region.

4. Juliet's chainsaw is full of pink because pink is her favorite color.

5. By reaching certain conditions you can make Juliet's chainsaw power up, gaining new skills.)

 

[Alx]

I like it... completely crazy just like only Japanese devs can make it.
Nice to see the subtle cel-shading, too (or how is it called when the contours are drawn, but the shadows are not flat ?)

I'm tired of this kind of protagonist -a naked witch, a cheerleader, Catherine- or characters -very few games have strong and not clichéed female characters-, that's all.

If you're thinking of Bayonetta, I would consider her a strong and not clichéed female character.
By the way the screenshot above with the hearts and pink mist reminded me of Bayonetta's style.

 

[Galdelico]

I already like it.

 

[Typographenia]

Not looking forward to the "head" sidekick which will provide comic relief, most likely. :-(

Is it just me, or is there like a miniature tie on his neckbrace thing? Perhaps a father figure? Maybe just an older or more professional individual than the lady? Maybe he's her coach, and she's trying to rescue his body?

 

[Deleted member 81567]

Bayonetta's jealous.

 

[Skilletor]

Is this Heroes: The Game?

 

[Finaika]

Oh look, she's wielding a pink chainsaw with hearts patterns on it *smh*

 

[Gravijah]

Is it just me, or is there like a miniature tie on his neckbrace thing? Perhaps a father figure? Maybe just an older or more professional individual than the lady? Maybe he's her coach, and she's trying to rescue his body?

I read that as crotch for a moment and I was confused.

 

[sixteen-bit]

I doubt it will come to America so you'll be importing it online

there's already a North American publisher lined up as stated in the Famitsu thread.

 

[kodecraft]

I'd prefer less fanservice (we know that naked females attract videogamers) and more videogames nostalgia as in Contact.

+1

I agree.

 

[daffy]

This is pretty much all that Japanese devs have to offer these days. Disappointed.

Yeah, you don't know anything.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

A handful of people in this thread just aren't getting enough fun out of life.

 

[Takao]

Suda wanted to steal more ideas from D3 than just Onechanbara, and decided to throw some Dead Head Fred in there as well.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Those screenshots are hilarious!

 

[Mr. B Natural]

I remember when I found this crap edgy, clever or original. Ya know, back when "craaaaaaaaaazy random japanese entertainment" might have been considered actually edgy, clever or original.

 

[LiK]

A handful of people in this thread just aren't getting enough fun out of life.

Indeed, such prudes.

 

[ScionOfTheRisingSun]

Unreal Engine, ho!

 

[PixyJunket]

I love Grasshopper so much.

 

[KyteTron]

Well hey, at least it's not Lolipop Chainsaw.

Which is disappointing me...

 

[eXistor]

Day one, the premise sounds great and I blindly buy Suda51's games.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Yep, that's a Japanese game alright.

Sigh.

 

[RavenFox]

YESSSSSSS! Move over Buffy!

Spoiler

I kid don't hurt me

 

[GuardianE]

A handful of people in this thread just aren't getting enough fun out of life.

Seriously. Reading through this thread, it seems as if some people can only enjoy super serious games, or a game released with a ridiculous, juvenile premise will shatter the foundations of game development.

It looks fun.

 

[Gegz]

4. Juliet's chainsaw is full of pink because pink is her favorite color.

This makes sense.

 

[harSon]

San Romero Knights? Guess that's supposed to be a nod to George Romero?

 

[Rahxephon91]

Looks fucking awesome. Right now Suda is hope alive for me.

 

[Strife91]

I wonder what that guys head is doing attached to her belt.

 

[Keyser Soze]

If it plays anywhere close to good, this is beyond amazing

 

[LiK]

Seriously. Reading through this thread, it seems as if some people can only enjoy super serious games, or a game released with a ridiculous, juvenile premise will shatter the foundations of game development.

And Suda's games always have a silly grindhouse vibe to me. All in good fun.
