It's been 10 years since the launch of Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge on Wii U - it's about time we received another sequel.
In the conclusion to a three part series, CV takes a look at the most recent Ninja Gaiden games, for better and for worse.
They need to make a true sequel to Ninja Gaiden 2, that was the most satisfying combat I've experienced in a hack n slash game.
been playing 1&2 on and off since they were released. I usually will play until I get frustrated then take another year off lol. Nver tried 3 or the 4th one even though they are in my backlog.
I tried to go back to Sigma but good god those controls are just insufferable. Couldn't do it.

NG:RE is good (2 was better though) and I havent played the others. My kids will likely get a kick out of bolt and tembo while I will give the F:13th the old college try.
The games with gold selection is trash. Besides Friday the 13th. Ninja Gaiden 3 is the worse in the whole series. Bolt and Tango...laughable

NG:RE is better then 1 or Black. Waaaaay more options. Better graphically. More playable characters. More costumes. More weapons. More ninjitsu. More enemy variety. In comparison. The first game is basic af.

LOLOLOL..
It's Jim Sterling. Unless it's Kirby or Call of Duty, almost all of his reviews that I read seem to be outright hateful.
wow thats bad.. This was one of the games i was actually looking into for it but i had a feeling not much will change
@ PopRocks359. Bet you wouldn't say that if were any other game. To many people a seven is an instant failure but you are excusing a 5.5? Why? Because it is a Wii U game? It's amazing how gamers will excuse anything that they want to succeed. Now that the first reviewed Wii U game gets a seven SUDDENLY a seven and 5.5 is 'not bad'. So we have started the Wii U excuses early have we? VITA games get sevens but that is a badge of failure that proves how worthless the VITA is. But this is nothing but the fault of the evil reviewer.I am sure you wouldn't be questioning his judgement if it was above an eight
Jesus people play the game for yourself, then decide. Video games like any art form are subjective, just because he didn't like the game, doesn't mean you won't. I don't care if you bash the game, but at least play it. For example, NieR was panned by critics but many people, including myself, enjoyed the game, hell I think it's a classic. I know 95% of people who bash Ninja Gaiden 3 just watched the IGN review and copy pasted it. I'm not saying Ninja Gaiden 3 was amazing, it was okay, nothing compared to the first two, but when people bash a game when they clearly never played it and just base it of a review, that's where I have a problem. Play it for yourself, make your own opinion on the game, don't hide behind a reviewer.
