I think for Ninja Gaiden, they were trying to keep it close to the original formula of a fast, challenging, fairly simple action game...

And apparently that's what it is...

And I wish I had an Xbox

Oh it's a great game for sure...but too much of the same thing for my tastes. Never played the original but it sounds like they are similar. Once again it's just not enough for me to buy it...as of this time.

What you said is true DH. People are too picky anymore on games. "Its not like the other one". "Its too different from the other one". I want to hit the people who say things like that on some games, then others the opposite.....theoretically

Holy ****ing ****. I just want to say that I had the chance to buy this game or PSO3. I thought to myself.. I've been looking forward to this. So, I bought it, right then and there.

Drove it home.. popped it in.. ****, ok, in the first ****ing ten minutes my controller was across the room and I WAS CRYING LIKE A BABY.

THIS GAME KICKS YOUR ASS.


I love it!

I can't describe it.. it ****ing wails on you, but you FEEL the need to continue. It's so damn awesome. The graphics are great.. man.. the FMV is just so sweet.

BUY THIS GAME BUY THIS GAME BUY THIS GAME ;-; The mere FACT that it hates your ****ing guts and wants to be hard on you makes it a worthy purchase. I tried to beat the first boss 10 times.. on normal mode. The game ACTUALLY HATES YOU. I've never seen anything like this.

If Microsoft would lower the f*cking price of the Xbox to like $150 or something around there, I might buy one since there are more good games now then before. Since I'm hearing Ninja Gaiden is a pretty good game

Damn, this game is hard. I'm stuck on the chapter 7 boss, which is only 1/2 way through the game. It's so hard, but so fun.

Must....beat....boss...
