This is a pretty janky port of the Wii game. This version would drop to single-digit frames during combat and driving around the hub world. It also kinda looks like shit compared to the Wii? Performance issues aside, this game is a blast. The humor got a few solid nose exhales and was never grating, the story is 100% nonsensical, but the game knows that and pokes fun at that fact.
The real highlights are the boss fights and character designs. The designs and looks of the bosses are phenomenal IMO, they're memorable and seem like there should be more lore and story behind them, but there's not. Combat-wise is where this game could have the most improvement. There's combos and wrestling moves to pull off, but the controls are never really touched on and it boils down to a basic button-mashing fest. This port does add some new shit like boss battles from No More Heroes 2, but they fall apart in this game's combat system and are a total joke.
Overall, a great starting point to build off of and I'll be playing the rest of the series, but I dunno if I can recommend this to anyone with the performance issues on PS3 and the game just looking generally worse than its Wii counterpart.
