No More Heroes III is the Rocky III of video games. Its not trying to recapture the magic of the original or nor does it care, or want to. Its a self indulgent, over the top, cheesy, rock n' rolling good time with the maniacal madness, meta commentary humor and insane presentation magic that only a Suda51/Grasshopper Manufacture game could instill for the player. You rarely play a game that doesn't quite give a fuck about its appearance, or trying to please a mass market or those obsessed with graphics. Its a hyper violent stylized smorgasbord of insanity and I can't help but love it in spite of many of its shortcomings. Punks Not Dead and I can't wait to see what Suda and Grasshopper are working on next. Worth the replay.
