Killer Is Dead Official Trailer

 
Have I died and gone to heaven this week or has Suda51 been too kind? After Famitsu's reveal of my most looked forward to game this year I hardly expected to be treated with something like this. This new trailer for Grasshopper Manufacture's Killer Is Dead really pulls no stops, as it not only introduces the basic premise but also introduces a handful of characters along with some f*cking incredible looking gameplay,
 
This game truly looks like the developer's potential Magnum Opus (let the overhype begin) as it perfectly sums up the past 10 years in one brilliant looking trailer. From the noteworthy art-style of Killer7 to the over the top sword play and violence of No More Heroes to even what looks like some third-person gunplay a 'la Shadows of The Damned, this game looks like it has it all. Honestly, even if you're not a fan of Suda51's work and this somehow doesn't get you a little excited you should probably take a step back and assess your life.
 
As the trailer says, we should all be expecting the game in Summer, and by that I truly hope that means full localization otherwise I'm going to drop far too much money on an import.

Shadow of The Damned Soils My Pants


When it was announced that Grasshopper Manufacture (No More Heroes, Killer7) was working on an HD title I nearly shat myself. Then an announcement trailer was released and fecal matter exploded everywhere. While I was worried that the development team's focus towards the western market would result in the loss of their flagship creativity (insanity), I had faith. 

Luckily for you and I, Goichi Suda has rewarded that faith. This game looks goddamn incredible. Girlfriends from hell, talking skull-guns with ten barrels, and skin-ripping demons? Count me in. The gameplay looks reminiscent of recent survival horror games (e.g. Dead Space and Resident Evil 4) mixed with the insanity of Killer7 and the dialogue of No More Heroes. June honestly can't get here faster; Shadow of The Damned has taken the place of my most anticipated game of 2011. What do you guys think?
