The main Character RYU's suit you change into after the first round actually reminds me of a Metal Gear Solid outfit. I love a game that is challenging but not cheap or tough for the wrong reasons. Has strategy, difficulty, graphics and is fun. to anyone who likes a challenge and is a true fan of gaming, a hardcore gamer, a fan of japanese style games, or anyone who wants a game that will still be worth playing 10 years down the road. This is the version to get and at 17 dollars, it is a must buy that you will be playing 10 years from now along with the Metal Gear Series, saying "Wow, they don't make em like this anymore." A true classic in the spirit of old school games with a high difficulty (It will ask you if you want to "abandon the way of the ninja" and let you play in very easy mode if you keep dying) that is rewarding to plod through. Anyway, I hope you like this game and I'd recommend it (only for mature adults - NO KIDS please.).
I like that it is a challenge so when I played it today after years of having it, I can enjoy it instead of just running through it. This game is definitely that. It is definitely an all time classic. Much better than #2 from the feel of it. One of the greatest games of all time. The graphics are the best of any version and so is the gameplay. You get some cool additions and the level design and battles are true classics.
The only game of this generation and this style that can compete with NGS is Devil May Cry 4, which is very cool but a much different spirit of rebellion and not as serious. Plus NINJAS ARE AWESOME. Bit of a turnoff too that the sigma version for #2 wasn't much different. In other words, I like a game that Is hard because I messed up, not because the game didn't respond right or was cheap. The enemies would look at home in MGS as well, SOCOM Type pistols included.
I didn't even bother to buy that one even though I have almost every game known to man. Not here though. VERY COOL. Good luck and God bless.-Anjiel
maybe because I am not goot at act game, this game is kind of hard for me. but I have to say if we can practice more, it will be a good experience after you finish it.
This game remind me alot of the old school prince of persia PC games. This game is the most unforgiving, and toughest game I have ever played on any platform. Two words to describe this game, so hard, actually three words, so very hard. Its a lot of jumping around, timing your jumps, going back and force to collect a key or some sort of missing piece of a puzzle. While the story line itself is fairly interesting; the gameplay itself is at time extremely frustrating and unforgiving. You will find yourself pulling out your own hair trying to time the perfect jump or understand what part of a particular puzzle you are missing. And the bosses at each level is very much like to old school games where the bosses do a preprogrammed set of moves that if you can time fairly well will be easy to beat. Overall not an impressive game but fairly fun once you complete it as you will have a sense that accomplished something, kind of like the feeling you finally mowed your lawn or cleaned out an epic mess.
PROS:- Very long adventure (19 chapters)- Good resolution (1080 p)- Good fidelity to the original (NES)- A lot of different bosses (helicopter, monsters, dragons, warriors, etc).- Different kind of enemies (ninjas, soldiers, machines, monsters, zombies, etc).CONS:- Few scenarios (city 80%, air balloon 10%, village 10%)- Some movements very hard (running through walls, acrobatic movements)
Ninja Gaiden is still the bar I use to judge other action game controls.NG's fighting system controls on a dime.The tight controls are necessary for a game this challenging. The first boss in this game is legendary for his difficulty.This is one of the games I was most excited for after getting a PS3.The difficulty definitely isn't for for everyone. The combat is so satisfying though, I don't mind trying to get to the next checkpoint.One tip. If the difficulty is too much, try dying immediately on the first level a few times to unlock a lower difficulty.
