INFA:
Killer Is Dead is the upcoming action game from the folks behind No More Heroes andKiller7. The game follows 35 year-old Mondo Zappa, a suit-wearing executioner responsible for taking out heinous criminals with a katana.
A gun that can turn into a drill is embedded in Zappa's left hand — an augmentation he has no memory of getting. The weapon becomes increasingly powerful during the game, and it can be used to absorb enemies' blood for a powerful "Adrenalin Burst" slash attack. Also included in the blood is "dark matter", which can apparently be changed into energy.
The American born Zappa works at an "executioner's office", managed by Brian Rozen, who was also augmented, to become a world-class executioner.
Joining Zappa is his boss at Rozen's firm, the cat-suit wearing 25 year-old British born Vivienne Squall. Mika Takekawa, 20, is Zappa's assistant. After an earlier incident, she met Zappa and then started living with him because she can make excellent soft boiled eggs, his favorite dish.
Then, there's the evil Victor, a criminal who is kind dressed of like Mozart — if Mozart had glowing eyes, skeletal features, and green skin. Victor manipulates human emotion through song and aims to bring evil to the world.
Besides the international characters, the game uses various backdrops, such as old Western houses and Japanese buildings.

[member = 'Kirsan'] Have you played Suda games? How can the style be spoiled in his works ... the god of hell, trash, sodomy and intoxication from birth, while everything is always stylish with him.
Well, yes. The idea of ​​a schoolgirl cheerleader killing a zombie with a chainsaw is generally moronic, but Suda knows how to put it right. And the game really came out. And there are no doubts in this project either, especially since the topic here seems to be pretty good, and every time the games of the Courts are more beautiful. The only thing I would like is that he paid more attention to the boevka and made it more varied, and so all the rules for now.

[member = 'razgulnov3'], yes, from Courts51.
I'm waiting hellishly.

Tags are cool :)
I looked at the trailer. Reminded by MGR.
In MGR, the wrong kitsch is gray, boring and not stylish. And there the trees disappear a second after cutting. In general, Killer is Dead looks better in all aspects so far.
Hell yeah! Although still more from NMH than from Killer 7, but who can be offended.
[member = 'Noirge'], well, just a woman with dozens of pairs of hands and a dismemberment ...
somehow more like a compilation of old games courts than something new
sotd looked more interesting

Almost all of his games are compilations of his previous games. SOTD has a bunch of No More Heroes. Lollipop Chainsaw has a ton of SOTD stuff. No More Heroes has a bunch of Killer7 and so on and so forth.
very cool cell shading. a kind of nmh in a rough and gloomy style ... the many-armed long-legged vivienne is a fairy tale in the flesh
SOTD has a bunch of No More Heroes. Lollipop Chainsaw has a ton of SOTD stuff. No More Heroes has a bunch of Killer7
Come on: ironic humor, "chernukha", a tribute to the "past", etc. I would not call it a "bunch" ... perhaps - "handwriting"
But in essence shod, chansu, nmh, k7 games are different both in gameplay and in style.
And by the way, the courts in all games of this generation are the executive director (the directors of all these games (including the kid) are other "grasshoppers" (except for the kind of first nmh)). Therefore, games are played in different ways, but meanwhile they have a familiar concept.
who, for all his madness, the Courts gave out a plot "no worse than MGS"I don't see madness .... I see creativity and imagination. At Suda, up to k7, there are amazing adventures with a complicated history. after k7, he threw off the eddies of the canvas.
No More Heroes hooked me with something, I didn't even really understand what .... So I'll wait for the game.
Sorry NMH2 is not on PS3.
tempting, but looking at the author's previous creations, the impression was that his games are more focused on visual perception than on the desire to interest the gameplay. correct if not so.
I mean, all the Lollipop chainsaw promotional videos did not make me want to buy the game, although the heroine is super sexy and generally cool.
I'm generally silent about NMH, you have to play with this stick to the heap
