Sega will be releasing Tenchu: Time of the Assassins for the PSP in due course, so check out these latest screens.
Chris Penwell from PlayStation LifeStyle writes: FromSoftware has had a vast history of games development since 1994. As we celebrate the release of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, we take a dive back into the company's history.
Digibytes writer Christopher Pascarelli, shares his number 2 spot for the monthly badass for August, a classic ninja that took the stealth genre into high levels for the Playstation 1 days way before Solid Snake perfected it.
Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven was one of the best games I played on PS2. Rikimaru is awesome.
Played Tenchu when it came out waaaay back when in the months before MGS launched. It made me fall in love with stealth games.
Sony should re-buy the Tenchu franchise. I wonder why they sold it to Activision, and why them sold it to From Software.
Who hasn't heard of Rikimaru?! he's fucking awesome! if you never heard of this guy then you cannot be a very big fan of stealth games
@isarai I know who Rikimaru is, I wouldn't put him in my list if I never played any of the games. And the original title of the article is the monthly badasses of gaming, it just that at the fact that I can't post the real title on the main site with out sounding offensive and vulgar.
In this article from GamingUnwrapped, the author will be taking a look back at a stealth series that held prominence in the PS1 and PS2 days: Tenchu. The article explores why the series has gone through a steady decline and what directions could be taken to bring the series back in today's gaming market. This article is opinion-based.
Tenchu was a good series. It if you are going to try the original, hasn't aged well. I imported the JP version and still have it with the Ninja Scroll it came packed with :) I'm surprised we haven't seen a next gen version yet and maybe we never will.
It was an awesome game where you could go through the entire levels only killing the bosses. I remember the first time I used the grappling hook to escape to the roof tops and thought to myself, this is about to be one hell of an game.
I thought Tenchu 2 was the best, used to spend hours on the level editor and making my friends play my levels with about a 100 hidden traps in them lol.
What makes me respect Rikimaru is that even though he wasn't blessed withe the talent as Ayame and Tatsumaru is was his hard work that still made him rise to their level in skill and in some instances surpass it.
Rikimaru is as traditional as a classic shinobi can get.....
I loved them on the old playstations they were such fun titles. Trying to complete levels without being seen was awesome
