The Giant Bomb Quick Look Thread 2

I'll buy Lollipop Chainsaw when it goes down in price. I like the aesthetic and even though Suda might not have worked on this title in a day to day capacity I think it carries some of his stylings, which I love. But they seemingly use a lot of the same tricks over and over and it feels lacking in terms of content
 
Damn this looks like ass. Grasshopper should probably give the small-scale, downloadable market a try if they're this incapable to manufacture passable graphics in a retail title.

The impressions from the official thread is positive and it looks like its one of the better Grasshopper games in recent entries.

I think she's annoying, but to a certain degree, skirts that line where it's funny instead of actually annoying. I think part of that is Nick's relatively flat responses to the things she has to say.
 
It looks okay and there is definitely enjoyment to be gleaned, but I really can't get excited for it. I would probably buy it, but for no more than $20. I'd easily pick it up at $15.
 
Ryan's only two levels or so into the game. Another 2 hrs and he could be at the end. It's a fun little title. They should have done a mini endurance run.

Yeah, there are definitely a few good jokes in there. If you don't like the valley hill style of Juliet though you're not going to enjoy the game's VA. Tara Strong does an awesome job with it though and on the whole the VA is pretty decent.
 
Lollipop Chainsaw looks like fun. Seems like a snack between No More Heroes' though, albeit with better production values... well, in places.

(I'm assuming they'll do a NMH3, god I hope so)
 
I will wait on a price drop for Lollipop Chainsaw. It's only 5 hours long and even if the people in the OT say it's got a ton of replay value, I don't know if I'd even want to replay the game. It's better to wait a bit. At least for me.

It's coming for Wii U and going from the Wii U's supposed specs, it would be easy to port the engine of Lollipop Chainsaw or Paradise onto Wii U.
 
Grasshopper figured out a way to get Ryan to not spend 15 minutes in the menus!

I demand that every dev shoehorn in the Lollipop song when they know it's going to be Ryan running the QL!

It better be! And Suda better be directing again. I feel LC would have had the craziness Ryan wanted if Suda had directed it.

Yeah, it does. Surprisingly so. This is far beyond the usual jank I can forgive, it just looks... really bad. I'm a big Suda/Grasshopper fan, but I won't go anywhere near this. Their last two games (Diabolical Pitch and this) have been pretty shit. Here's hoping they can turn it around with their next project.
 
I think Lollipop Chainsaw is actually the best playing game Grasshopper has put out. The QL segment wasn't a very good showing.

"Brad and Ryan seek to answer the millennia-old question: how is Babel formed?"

Oh man.

Found it weird some of the things they were off put about in the LC quick look. The shop music never really plays long enough for me to be bothered by it and for all the awful marketing playing up the sex appeal, I actually don't think they do it much in the game itself. The combat also gets WAY better once you buy more combos, so I will be interested to see what Ryan thinks of it after he plays more but I personally think it is my favorite Grasshopper game to date.
 
Went into the Lollipop Chainsaw QL knowing absolutely nothing about the game besides the suprisingly self-explainatory name. I was not adequately prepared for what I just witnessed

finally got around to watching this. man, looks disappointing compared to the original E3 reveal. the combat looks repetitive.

I just watched that QL, and Yeah, I agree , the original E3 version was completely different, it was like Zelda/dungeon crawle but with magic and puzzles only, the new and final version of the game look like a random cheap soulless shovelware.

it's very sad that I got a move controller just this game just to see it years later end this way.
 
Damn, Jeff is pretty damn solid at VF.

Never thought I cared for the level of play in quick looks until I watched the VF quick look.
