Frankenreview - No More Heroes (Wii)

There's no doubt about it—the Wii is in dire need of some decent third party titles. That's why we find director SUDA-51's/Grasshopper Manufacture's No More Heroes so intriguing. A sort of Grand Theft Auto meets Killer7 meets light sabers, the game promised to bring action, humor and style to the Wii...without Mario or his friends.

So what did the critics think? Hit the jump for our Frankenreview to find out: not quite every review, but probably more than you're going to read anyway.

Harvest Moon Creator Wants to Make Spore-Like Game

Yasuhiro Wada is best known for cult hit barnyard RPG Harvest Moon. But he's also busy running Marvelous Interactive! You'd think a guy who's had creative and business success would be content.

In a micro world, like The Sims for example, you have the city expanding but you can't see it. But you want to be one of the people living in the city, and to be a part of this growing too.

Isn't that what Harvest Moon is? Or is he saying he wants to make infinite Harvest Moon?

Frankenreview: Valhalla Knights (PSP)

Valhalla Knights has a fantastic pitch. From the companies behind Technu and Harvest Moon, it's a 3D hack n' slash with hardcore RPG roots. You can customize up to 6 players in your party. You can play ad hoc with a friend. You can waste your life away for higher MP/HP. And you can actually transcend to a higher level of existence (feature untested). So what did the reviewers think?
