Lollipop Chainsaw

The last couple of days I have been playing Lollipop Chainsaw. I was super stoked for this game for many different reasons. Lollipop Chainsaw focuses on zombie hunter and cheerleader Juliet Starling who fights hordes of zombies in San Romero High School. She carries with her the severed, yet still living, head of her boyfriend Nick Carlyle whom she decapitated after he suffered a zombie bite. Nick can be used for various purposes, including being kicked at enemies by Juliet or being put on the body of a decapitated zombie to control it. The enemy zombies are led by "a group of zombie rock and roll lords" who were former high school students who were turned into intelligent zombies that each have different personalities, music-styles and motif's. The zombie outbreak has been caused by Juliet's former classmate, an evil goth druid named Swan who seeks to break the barrier between the human world and the Rotten World, a world inhabited by zombies and other demonic forces. Killing enemies and saving classmates that are being attacked by zombies will fill up Juliet's star meter, which is used for super attacks. When the player completes certain tasks in the game, Juliet's chainsaw gets upgraded. Lollipop Chainsaw was a collaboration between game designer Goichi Suda and filmmaker James Gunn. One of the reasons I was looking forward to this game was Jimmy Urine from the  Mindless Self Indulgence would compose the music for the boss segments. He also provide the voice for Zed, a punk-rock themed boss. This game is so girly, has great music, a fun story line and I am in love!
