Killer Is Dead (new Suda51 game!!!!!!!)

[TEKTORO]

Got my limited edition ordered, wanting this bad. I'm nicknaming this game Sex & Assassins since it seems the main character is a Gigolo. cheese

I'm excited, but haven't had the $ to preorder - have had higher priority purchases lately. What's in the LE that should inspire me to hurry up and preorder?

I really want this game but I think I'm going to have to wait a while. I've barely progressed into Tales of Xillia, I'm picking up New Super Luigi U soon, and GTAV and The Wonderful 101 come out next month. I'd say my problem is a lack of time ATM.

From what I know, 80 pg artbook, soundtrack, DLC (items, missions) and limited ed case.

Not that Im going to, but usually if the limited stuff is hard to come by you can flip the extras to pay off a nice chunk of what you spent on it. I did that with Ni No Kuni and MGS Rising and end costing me $40 for them when they were new.

Continues the trend of awful suda51 games. Well maybe Shadows was an exception, but I find this weird/sexist sense of humour to be appalling even if taken at face value. Anyway there's a target audience for this kind of thing and suda51 and the teams he works with will continue churning them out.

I'll read the review later. Was thinking of getting this. Seemed like it could be an improved version of No More Heroes.. Which was just decent. Project DIVA F is a definite at least. Maybe that'll be it this week.

I didn't know such a trend existed. Lollipop Chainsaw was awesome. Shadows of the Damned was damn good as well.

Wow, that's a pretty rough review. It also seems to be pretty well in tune to the game's heritage and positioning in the broader gaming landscape...

I'll probably check the game out at some point if only to stay current on Suda's work - he is a fascinating/polarizing figure if nothing else.

yeah. Though the thing about his games are that if you wait a month or so they'll drop to $40. So that's prob what I'll be doing.

Even Destructoid gave this a 7 (in this industry that's a mediocre score), and they're quite infamous for awarding higher scores for such "unusual" titles.
