Grasshopper Manufacture Ranked

"Punk's Not Dead
Video Game Band"

Games I've played (and finish) from them so far.

The OG PS2 Flower Sun and Rain is absolutely perfect as it is. Outside longer loading screens and less features only present in the DS version it's at the core the same experience you would find on the DS.
Just perfect.
The direct continuation of the Silver Case, even if doesn't look like it. Doesn't tackle much themes as TSC does but one makes shine character in particular, so it is a very character driven game and is highly recomended to play The Silver Case first.
Like The Silver Case, just way bigger and dense. It's a personal guilty pleasure of mine. While I think both Placebo and Matchmaker are great, Correctness is the chapter that made me fall in love with this game.
Acid trip, not very enjoyable one but it gets you to think a lot about. Politics, the state of the world and how Japan feels about everything after the war. It is a lot to take. People just often fail to see there is a game behind all of that.
A classic. This very might be Grasshopper very soul incarnated into a game, there is nothing like it not even 25th Ward. Also my first look into Suda51 games. For extra insight on one of the characters see "4.5 Face", a quick reading won't kill.
Last entry into the No More Heroes series. Rather than being the end of the series I think it's a fresh start for things to come in the future. It's also one of GM most fun titles to play.
A passion project, and a celebration of 20 years of history. This believe it or not still continues the No More Heroes saga as we know it in a local multiplayer Diablo-esque format.
As most Suda51 project, presentation is king and the narrative takes a huge leap compared to something like NMH2. Not the best when it comes to gameplay, some sections are frustrating but the overall experience was very positive (from a Suda51 fan point of view).
Suda51 big action debut, aside from Killer7. Action game with underlying tones that sort flew over my head first time playing it. Solid action game nonetheless. But it didn't totally win me over.
Crazy, out there, messy, akward but ultimately fun. It's not a sequel to Killer7 even if it shared the style and name on it. Ah, is just there you know? Sits there among other Suda51's works. Has the style and little sustance to mantain it. For 2$ is tempting offer.
Carrying an infamous development story behind, Shadows of the Damned stands amongst Grasshopper most unsatisfying titles to complete. Still, it is a fun time but it didn't actually made me feel anything in particular. Fun, while it lasted.
Suda51 abscent was felt a bit on this one. But I have to say it's not without some good points it added to the franchise, all to be demolish by No More Heroes 3 and it's great gameplay.
I guess we got Jasper Batt Jr, beat the shit out of that bastard.
