SUDA51 Backs Down On Beating Manhunt 2 On Violence
Maybe it's not the way we play...
Posted 21 Sept 2007

A few months ago - before Manhunt 2 was banned by the BBFC - head of Grasshopper Manufacture, Goichi Suda (A.K.A. SUDA51) - told IGN:
Well, speaking to SPOnG at this year's Tokyo Game Show, SUDA51 appears to have backed down on this claim, telling our Svend:

"I'll also try my best to make No More Heroes as violent, or even more violent than Manhunt 2!"
Well, speaking to SPOnG at this year's Tokyo Game Show, SUDA51 appears to have backed down on this claim, telling our Svend:
"[Laughs] Well, we still don’t know if Manhunt 2 is going to be released or not, but actually we’re looking forward to it. The violence won’t be the same kind of graphical violence that you may see in Manhunt 2 anyway, because it’s more of a cartoon-esque violence whereas in Manhunt 2 it’s really real and lifelike. So, it won’t be the same level of violence regardless.
Yeah, I don’t think No More Heroes will be as violent as Manhunt 2, it’s still right up there. It’s the one to beat!"

Looks to me like he's just stating the obvious. Even if NMH were more violent, it's a totally different kind of violence because of the graphical style. The violence in NMH is also very stylized and over the top, not realistic.
