You are Travis Touchdown, a normal guy (with an otaku geek streak) who wins a Beam Katana through an online auction and uses the weapon to start a new career as a professional killer. One day, an assassin named Helter Skelter appears before Travis and the two face off in a battle. Travis emerges victorious and finds himself in the presence of Silvia Christel, a mysterious French woman who claims to be an agent with the UAA. Silvia gives Travis official rank of 11 in the organization. Now, it's up to you to become #1. No More Heroes takes place in the city of Santa Destroy, and you are free to explore the town to your liking, taking on missions large and small to collect money and purchase new weapons as you work up towards the 10 main killing contracts. Gameplay is all about using your Beam Katana (via Wii remote) to defeat enemies.
No More Heroes is a wacky action game with a very unique art style and fighting system. Using your "Beam Katana" (light saber much anyone?), you climb the ranks to try to become the #1 assassin. The combat system can be very fun at times, and the Wii remote works perfectly, adding to the experience. However the game does get dragged down by its repetitiveness and poor open world game play. Still worth a look.
