Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes -- Killer Marathon (REAL) (DLC #2)

Описание: Remember that one level that was barely more than a blank slate, with only the faintest construction? The one that led to that, frankly, boring Asteroids knock-off? Well, it's actually a real level now, and it's the meat and potatoes of the second part of the TSA DLC.

Right at the beginning, Death and Drive tell you that they made this one really hard, and let me tell you, they're not kidding. I gave the first section a try on Mild and I died twice. They also say that Sweet mode is still really easy, and they're not kidding about that either. Well, I'd rather get through it smoothly than struggle, because I'm not here to prove anything anyway.

The gimmick here is that you need to clear each section of this "marathon" in the time limit, or you lose. Also, it's set up to look like a pinball table.

The boss of this stage is Silver Face, the hero of this game who's actually really upset about being relegated to DLC because A) on average, hardly anyone buys the DLC, and B) they probably only bought it because of Bad Girl, not him. Guilty.

When you do beat him, well, Bad Girl is revived for real, and she's a playable character too. Where Shinobu takes after Travis in having higher attack power, Bad Girl takes after Badman in having higher health. That means that if you ever felt so inclined, you could co-op with someone and not make anyone choose which character type to play as.

And that just about covers it! The game ends here, but the legacy will continue on in the final game of the series (probably), No More Heroes 3, coming soon to a video service near you!
