No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle

I also just got it. Won't spoil anything, but I will say it's a lot more challenging than I expected.

I hear it gets easier once you get the right katanas. Which katanas do the trick seem to vary from person to person, but I've found fans for all of them except the Blood Berry (which is reasonable, seeing how it's the default one and being The Mario isn't all tha useful).

I am not a big fan of the gym minigames...because I suck at them.

Hasn't Australia still not got Pokemon Diamond/Pearl?

Surprisingly, no, both they and Pokemon Platinum were only released a couple of months after in the US. Nintendo seems to be getting better about that kind of thing  ^*

Can anybody tell me what's special about Camelia MKIII? I've been playing for a bit and I can't tell much difference between it and the bloodberry

It seems like the Camellia Mk III is the Tsubaki Mk III, basically. And the charge definitely lasts longer than the Blood Berry.

Those retro mini-games are almost more fun than the game proper.

Sidetracked by the Gold Saucer, much?

Also, does the minigame have any references to "STRAWBERRY TO THE SHORTCAKE!" in it?

Yeah, we could possible add NMH 2 as an example there. I like the pizza driving game.

Oooh man youse guyss I am sooo jealous. I've heard it's better than the original in pretty much every way.

Alright, I'm four bosses in and still haven't died yet, though Charlie MacDonald almost got me. I also now really hate the new workout guy. I miss Thunder Ryu.

Alright, I'm up to the number one ranked assassin fight. Speaking of:

Fuck your goddamn windows, Batt. No seriously, fuck them. And fuck you. And fuck Suda51 for making "getting gently pushed into an unbroken window" grounds for an automatic game over. Fucking Grasshopper Manufacture fucks with their fucking terrible planning and their fucking terrible stage design and FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK.

...Aside from that, the game's great!

Am I the only one that didn't have trouble with the windows? It was the teleporting that really got me...I mean, come on! It's almost impossible to dodge it the 3rd time!

I find the strength training mini-game hard...I find dodging the big weights difficult as you can not tell whether they will go for your head or legs until a split-second before they do.

Am I the only one that didn't have trouble with the windows? It was the teleporting that really got me...I mean, come on! It's almost impossible to dodge it the 3rd time!

Half the time, it was the teleporting that knocked me out of the window in the first place.

Fun, fun.

I was tossed out the window a total of 2 times. Not a big deal for me. It might be harder on bitter, though.

I'm going to dread getting to that part on Bitter. I could barely survive the haunted house assassin on Bitter. BTW, did anyone else notice that, on any difficulty, you can come back to life if you die by shaking rapidly?

My copy freezes when I try to finish off Letz Shake, when I have to do the thing where I swing the Wii Remote in a circle it just freezes. Anyone else had this problem?

I guess I just got a bad disc...I will have to go and exchange it. I bought the year warranty on it, so I hope I have no problems getting a disc that does not freeze on me.

H-How is it even possible to do that? He...dosen't really have any attacks I've seen that do that, unless you mean the death cutscene, which I can't remember.

It is during the death cutscene when you jump on top of him and stab him, it freezes when I try to spin the Wii remote in a circle. It has done so twice now, at exactly that moment. I still get the little blue twirling lights around the Wii remote icon, but nothing happens when I spin it.

Well, at least it isn't the Wii then, as long as the game dosen't freeze with the Wii making a loud buzzing sound. It's probably the disc.

Yeah, I am going to try and get a new disc on monday.

I'm only two bosses in. I've been distracted by amusing mini-games.

Either way, both bosses thus far have made me vocally go "WHAT." Good sign.

Trust me. It get's even more weirder from there on out.

Yo, after some research and listening to the song quite a few times I've got the lyrics to Margaret's theme. Here you go:

Edit: Thanks Freezair!

"Reaper, Reaper", that's what people call me! Why?
‘Cause they all die!
When I sing, I end their lives. You act
As though payback; makes you a noble man
Is that a fact?
Well, you're a god damn philistine

"Reaper, Reaper", that's what people call me! Why?
‘Cause they all die!
When I sing, I end their lives. You act
As though payback; makes you a noble man
Is that a fact?
Well, you're a god damn philistine

Requiem eternal
Bullets ride through the sternum
Lullaby to hell, babe.
Reaper's got your name!

Margaret is greek, you geek.
It means 'a pearl'. I'm a pure girl.
Boys can not crack this oyster shell, so go on,
Whip around that sword like you're the best, it's a such a bore.
Another hero~! Oh, please~!

Margaret is greek, you geek.
It means 'a pearl'. I'm a pure girl.
Boys can not crack this oyster shell, so go on,
Whip around that sword like you're the best, it's a such a bore.
Another hero~! Oh, please~!

Requiem eternal, Reaper has come sinner!

Thigh-high socks and my absolute territory
Go on and drool; the Otaku can not resist
You think the fire in your eyes makes you a tiger in disguise
Dream on, you god damn pussy

"Reaper, Reaper", that's what people call me! Why?
‘Cause they all die!
When I sing, I end their lives. You act
As though payback; makes you a noble man
Is that a fact?
Well, you're a god damn philistine

Awesome! I don't even know why, but I just love that song! Thanks for clarifying the harder parts of the lyrics.
