Most of Suda51 games I’ve absolutely adored, such as No More Heroes, Killer7, Contact and of course Shadows of the Damned, each game is confusing, strange, and generally messed up, that’s why the following rumor does not surprise me.
Grasshopper Manufacture’s Lollipop Chainsaw is being created for PS3 and Xbox360, with Suda51 at the helm and ‘Sound Director’ Akira Yamatoka, about a cheerleader who was raised by zombie hunters, and uses her abilities as a cheerleader to kill zombies with a chainsaw. Like how Shadows of the Damned had a very punk-rock feel to it, Lollipop Chainsaw will have a… Pop feel? Apparently the zombies burst into pink blood.
It’s hard to say if this rumor is fake or not, but it does sound like a Suda51 game. Should be interesting when it gets announced.
(By the way Nintendo of America, we still want to play the Grasshopper Manufacture’s Fatal Frame 4, you know, just to let you know that there are other people around the world that will play it.)
UPDATE: Looks like we got our first screenshot of the chainsaw action!
