Suda 51: No More Heroes to be More Violent Than Manhunt 2, Wants to Develop for Xbox 360
IGN has posted an interview with Killer 7 developer, Suda 51, concerning his upcoming game for the Wii, No More Heroes. In the interview, he reveals more details on the game and what he has on his wish-list for the future.
No More Heroes will utilize a more standard style than his previous game and will be completely free-roaming a la Grand Theft Auto and opposite of Killer 7's rail-system, however, "players will not be able to steal vehicles." Suda 51 also says that he will try his "best to make No More Heroes as violent, or even more violent than Manhunt 2!" Nintendo only has kiddie games, indeed. Hmmph. Nothing kiddie about being the 11th best assassin in the world who is now bent on becoming the most powerful/best assassin by taking out the 10 that are ahead of him, now is there?!
The creative developer reveals that he's very interested in developing for the Xbox 360 and is planning his next project for that system. He goes on to say that, at this time, developing for the PS3 has very little chance of happening. As for the Wii hardware, Suda 51 feels that the "Wii enables developers to create new types and styles of games." Wii for the win!
Earlier in the interview, he metnions that in his younger years, he was an undertaker and that his favorite game is Out of this World. Perhaps OotW had some influence on the look of Killer 7? The two do look similar, or perhaps it was just because that is how early polygonal games looked? Who knows, it's just a thought, but Killer 7 is one of my favorite games.
For the full interview, follow the link, it's pretty interesting and offers more detail on No More Heroes, a title I'm very much looking forward to. No release date has been set, but it will be coming out on the Nintendo Wii.

Love Killer 7 and can't wait for No More Heroes!
I have K7 for PS2 and was wondering if there is much of a difference with the gamecube version? or if one is better than the other?
I'd love to answer that question, but the only difference I can imagine is that the GC version would look better than the aging PS2. That's usually the case when a game appears on those two consoles.
I was a huge fan of Out of This World also. So much in fact, I tracked down Heart of the Alien for the Sega CD, so I could see the Alien's side of the story. Both games in conjunction were an absolute pleasure to play.

Heart of Darkness was gruesome and awesome.
