Boomtown: Ninja Blade PC Review

Boomtown writes: "Ninja Blade is set in Tokyo in the near future. The city is overrun by a parasitic worm that takes over and mutates its host, giving rise to a very manga-like army of fleshy foe. The parasites spread like wildfire and you only have a short time to save the locals from annihilation. A simple enough premise for what is fundamentally a hack'n'slash game with Quick Time Events in abundance, but is it fun? "

Well aren't you cool? Taking a game that was pretty much universally acclaimed and then saying that one that received mediocre to bad reviews across the board is better... There's always one "hipster" out there with a contrarian opinion.

I don’t remember much of it but wasn’t it a QTE heavy game like Asura’s Wrath and GOW3?

NecrumOddBoy2212d ago (Edited 2212d ago )

It was like the Xbox Ninja Gaiden with an insane amount of QTEs. Not bad but not innovative.

SamPao2212d ago

Asura's Wrath and GOW3s QTE usage are planets apart though :D

Youngindy212212d ago

Both of those games were good so....

The Adventures of Cookie and Cream (Or Kuri Kuri Mix as is known in PAL territories) is actually a pretty good game, and gets damn hard in the latter stages.

I'd love to see FromSoft make King's Field 5, or maybe another Armoured Core. I love the Souls games, but I don't want to see it milked for all its worth.

Duke193304d ago

Didn't they also make the 3D Dot Game Heroes (or something like that).

I actually enjoyed that a lot on PS3

eyoung253304d ago

They actually only handled publishing in Japan. It was developed by Silicon Studio.

I wanted to keep the entries to their own respective genres. Chromehounds and Armored Core are both mecha. I almost included it though.

I came here to learn something new and left disappointed.

DarXyde3304d ago

...I'm saying I knew FromSoft had a hand in all of these games. I would know, I own/ed most of them.

Armored Core series producer left From Software.
My guess is the company shifted all focus to Souls series... :(
RIP Armored Core....

eyoung253303d ago

I would love to see them come out with a new IP in the mecha genre. Armored Core was cool, but I think they have expanded their skills to make a more unique game.
