I was just wondering about your thoughts on this game. It's not due out until March 2nd here in the US, but there are already a ton of positive reviews going around. I remember playing one of the old Ninja games back on the NES, and Gaiden is supposed to be an updated version of it. Just looking at the screenshots brings Shinobi to mind. But it has been said by a reliable source that this game far surpasses Shinobi in just about every area. I don't know about you, but I'm really looking forward to trying out this game.

the old ninja games on the netendo are the best, espacaily ninja gaiden III.
the one on the genensis was really bad, and those are the only ones i can think of.
i dont have a xbox, so i wont be able to play this game, but anything with ninjas in it is a good thing.

I dunno I have seen some demo reels and the game looks undeniably beautiful but my question is how deep will it be, will it be another graphical tour-de force with no substance inside ? Juding from the video it looks more like Devil May Cry then Tenchu......I'll borrow it from a friend first before I purchase.

i don't think it's meant to resemble tenchu very much, but i haven't had the chance to play that one very much
anyway, i've been looking forward to this game for a while, and i will be getting it

I got this game when it first came out. All i gotta say is this is devil may cry in japan. This game plays exactly like dmc and even has the same menu on the save screen. Its still a good game and it comes with the three previous games that came out on NES. I would not recommend buying it if your a hardcore dmc or ninja gaiden fan. If not just rent it.

I am playing it and it kicks ass and no I am not just saying that because I have an Xbox. The game is a little challenging but rewarding since you gotta use some technique and strategy to fight the bosses in particular. The game doesn't have many merits DMC had but kinda splices them with a bit of the gameplay of Prince of Persia which was a game I loved.

The graphics are beautiful....and the speed and sensation are on the mark. This is definately one of the best action games in recent memories, I now feel like reliving my childhood and stepping forth to the older Ninja Gaiden.
