Jim from Bit Cultures writes: "Ninja Gaiden is a game series that I have completely missed out on over the years. I wasn’t around when the NES games came out and when the series was revived by Team Ninja in 2004. I simply didn’t play. I had always heard good things, but just never made the time to try them. That is until recently, anyway. My roommate suggested that we sit down and play through the game and it was one hell of a time."
It's game time!, or is it hacking and slashing time? Doesn't matter! Enjoy the best hack and slash games on the Xbox 360
Ninja Gaiden 2 was never multiplat. NG Sigma 2 is a remixed game not the same game at all
Dante's inferno... such a great GoW inspired game. So sad the sequel was canned, it sounded like it was going to be even more epic than the first.
Yeap, classic GoW is still better mechanically. But the aesthetics and atmosphere of Dante's Inferno were just top-notch. Shame it never got a PC port, but at the very least is available on modern Xbox.
I just can’t get into the devil may cry series. In my opinion you never feel powerful in those games. The guns are pointless as they only serve to be a flashy part of a combo. DMC was the only one that I could tolerate long enough to beat.
With Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty coming soon, it's time to look back at the developer's greatest triumphs...and one oddball favorite.
There is a decent fan base for the Nioh games, but still think they are criminally overlooked and under appreciated.
I just bought the PS5 collection to replay them again with all their DLC, a sweet collection for my games shelf for sure.
Yea, those gardens haven't been plowed in over 10 years now though. Imagine if they cultivated it, let it grow again.
originally it wasn't going to be included because of their take on Samus' character. But the gameplay's actually not bad.
Honestly, I don't know if we can even blame them for that take. Nintendo's Sakamoto was credited as the writer and from what we learned later with the Retro Studios interviews for the Prime series, Nintendo apparently never saw Samus as this stoic badass that most of the west imagined her as. Going as far as describing her as "motherly".
Two new games have been added to Xbox Game Pass: Ninja Gaiden II for Xbox One and Reigns: Game of Thrones for PC. Subscribers can download them now.
I play a shit tone if action adventure games and NG2 remains one of my favourites. As soon as I’m done DMC5 again ima break this one out.
NG2 has the most satisfying combat I've ever experienced in a hack n slash game. I don't know why in the hell they changed it up in the games following.
Maybe, because NG has never been about 1 thing cept difficulty. NG always changes since part 2 on NES. (built-in wall climbing & 'shadows')
When NG launched on Xbox. I was like "Why'd they get rid of shadows?"
Because Team Ninja booted Itigaki from the company. Games have been utter shite ever since.
