i start off my morning by checking out a few game websites. they i get sickened by the cover story, NINJA GAIDEN 2 PREVIEW. let me tell u something, NINJA GAIDEN SUCKS. sadly i was one of the 360 owners looking foward to nj2 cause stupid me listened tothepetty hype and believed that this was,as that b**** hilary goldstien said, "a ground braking action playformer that sets the bar for others to come."so i puchased ninja gaiden to see what i was missing. turns out i wasnt missing a whole lot

let me stop my bickering and explain myself. i will give credit to team ninja for presenting quite polished graphics and smooth frame rate. the combat system is entertaining, as there are a fine variety of moves u can use to kill ur enemies. i also have no problem, actually i encourage aggressive AI, and that's to say the least in NJ. the final thing that i would give this game credit to is the customization for the weapons, health,& magic

this is where the fun stops

ive read several reviews of this game, which have said, "minor camera issues" that's one hell of an understatment. THE CAMERA IS GOD AWEFUL!! u will run into a hallway and ge shot at by someone u can even see, and this happens VERY OFTEN. the second boss battle hits toilet bottum as the horseman appears out of FREAKIN NOWHERE and hacks the living crap out of u. boss battle r just no fun because of this. as a hardcore gamer,i look foward to boss battles, yet in this game, i roll my eyes everytime i encouter one. i played the game hoping that it would end quickly. enviorments run from moderate to very bland, and the voice acting sucks.

now for the worse parts... what the hell is up with the respawning enemies? its inconsistant and just plain retarded as times enemies would appear, then disappear and never show up again, others will always be there no matter how many times u kill them. finally, let me just make this perfectly clear, aggressive AI+BAD camera angles+no check points=BAD GAME. u get hacked up by enemies that u cant even see (again with the camera) once u die, and u do die a lot, u will be sent back to the LAST save point. that's just plain bad game design, as u will have to endure the level of crap this game has to offer over, and over and over again each time u die

as Matt Cassamasina said, Ninja gaiden is the most overated game of all time

I disagree completely. Furthermore, your rant is better served by placing it in your blog.

Ninja Gaiden has no check points? News to me

I love the game, but I think I am only of the only people who likes the PS2 Shinobi better. THAT game has no check points

You obviously havent played any Ninja gaiden games.. Or you sucked so bad at the NG games.. wich one is it??

They can always give you option to pick camer angle with the right joystick, but man if you think its hard this way wait till you try that out..calling it most overated game of all time is just Flaim bait, right??? NG is the best ninja game ever made... so... pls shut up.. I havent played NG2 so I really cant judge I have just seen some early stage vidz..

Did you get Ninja Gaiden Black? Or the first (Xbox) one?

Because, although it's far from perfect, in black, they made some camera improvements. (you can click the right stick to stop it from going into 1st person view)

I had some problems with the camera at first as well (even in black) but after playing for a couple of hours, it really isn't as bad as a lot of people make it out to be.

After playing it for hundreds of hours it is still probably my favorite game on the Xbox.

Boss battles don't give you the option of camera angles. I actually agree with the camera though, the thing pissed me off often and I was getting hit out of no where. Seems reviewers forgive the lacking details in the game like story because everyone loves the combat.

Not everybody likes the same games, I can understand that. (I could never really get into Morrowind)

But if you call a game overrated while most proffesional reviewers give the game AAA status, maybe there is more to the game than you give credit for.

Ninja Gaiden Black is one of the Best Games Ever. Period.

Yes today some of its mechanics are dated and the camera takes a long time to get used to though with the patch it is much better. Blacks camera is better than original. You playing original?

Amazing game and I place NG:Black alongside DMC & GoW as three very brilliant games and tho similar all totally different. Great!!!

You could say the same about a lot of other games. (Mario Galaxy)

Does that mean the game is total crap? Do all games really need a brilliant story?

IMO, no. While certain games need a great story/presentation, other games make up for this with great gameplay and by providing a fun experience.

So now we see the cow in you. LOL

Seriously as a gamer, manticore or whatever you call them. This for its time on the original Xbox was an amazing game that equalled and well bettered the disappoining DMC2 (at that point). And was at the top of the pile of action adventure fighting games.

NG has been slated for years by many gamers(cows) til they got Sigma now theirs more and more threads on how it sucks and is over-rated. Grow up please...

If anybody favours a console its to the console being favourable. Years ago the PS2 got a lot of favourtism but thats coz it had a great library while GC and XBX had a much smaller library.

I favour X360 but thats coz my time with Wii and PS3 havent impressed me as much as I've had with the 360. Will that change I'm sure it will at some point I aint no blind fanboy and follow my instincts and own decisions. Not a brand...

I dont care what you own to behonest you sure as hell think your point matters over all of us. Labelling gaming mags/sites as biased coz they disagree with you and favour the 360.

GoW is a great game and so is NG. Both are very different but both are very great. I prefer NG but I'd never say GOW is rubbish coz its repetitive combat with little skill compared to NG. If all games were the same they'd get boring quick.

Me 2. The first time I played the game I got my a$$ handed to me by Murai several times.

I thought it was impossible to beat and I actually stopped playing it for several months.

When more and more friends told me to suck it up and give the game another chance, I did and now after finishing the game on all difficulties it is hard for me to see why i hated it so much.

Like I said in my first response, I can totally understand that the camera can really be annoying to someone at first, but after a while it really isn't that bad anymore.

Some people don't like the game, that is fine, but don't call a game overrated like the TC did, just because you don't like it.

so when someone agrees with your dumb opinion, "they have some taste"????!!!! STFU and cry in your blog. no one cares.

Is it me or is the Cow demographic getting younger and innovatively getting more immature. Maybe most of the older Sony fans have moved onto PC/360 or Wii. Yep 360 fans have a lotof idiots but the cows on some sites are taking the biscuit.

Head over to N4G if you wanna find a site swarming with PS3 (die-hard fans) that believe Sony gave birth to them. The loyalty bemuses me.

Most of the time I find myself not wanting a PS3 just coz of the people who actually sing its praises and blst over consoles.

Annoying.

[QUOTE="The_Deepblue"]I didn't like Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox too much either.mrjam0

finally someone with some taste

Not everybody likes the same games, I can understand that. (I could never really get into Morrowind)

But if you call a game overrated while most proffesional reviewers give the game AAA status, maybe there is more to the game than you give credit for.

hey, let me let u in on a little secret, most american game journalist favor the x box more than anything. that's y uve seen this game get AAA status

If anybody favours a console its to the console being favourable. Years ago the PS2 got a lot of favourtism but thats coz it had a great library while GC and XBX had a much smaller library.

I favour X360 but thats coz my time with Wii and PS3 havent impressed me as much as I've had with the 360. Will that change I'm sure it will at some point I aint no blind fanboy and follow my instincts and own decisions. Not a brand...

so explain to me y the x box and 360 has done so horribly in japan

Confused how you got from my comments to Japan.

But anyway Japan is a total different demographic. They love JRPG's, beat-em ups, adventure games and are very wary of Western games.

Me I like both but then I'm European and like to find the best of all worlds.

Japan isnt as important as it was 15 years ago.

Ninja Gaiden Black is one of the Best Games Ever. Period.

Yes today some of its mechanics are dated and the camera takes a long time to get used to though with the patch it is much better. Blacks camera is better than original. You playing original?

Amazing game and I place NG:Black alongside DMC & GoW as three very brilliant games and tho similar all totally different. Great!!!

mrjam0

dont u ever and i mean ever compare a game like that to God of War. GOW is in a completely different league. dont ever do that again

there you go, youre a casual button mashing scrub that got his @$$ handed to him by NG and now youre crying in the forums...go play viva pinata kid and leave games like ninja gaiden alone.

button mashing scrub? thats a new one. surprised that u came up with that one all by urself but is dumb enough to call that concidering GOW isnt for button mashers. viva what?? who r u and y r u posting irrelevant crap on my thread? go away.

I agree with him. God Of War is button mashing goodness. The less skilled are prone to uphold GoW as the better game due to its easiness. Casuals will not survive in NG. They will most likely give up on the first boss, call the game overrated, and then say something like, "I have a life..that's why I suck at this game."

2D NES Ninja Gaiden games > 3D Ninja Gaiden games-supercharged-

I admire gamers like you who stay stuck in past with this... "nostalgia" I really do. It's cute.

This is what happens when people who suck at this game get frustrated.

mightyboosh13

and this is what happens when a bunch of lemmings overrate and x box title just because it atleast does something right. yes i am frushtrated... by how bad the game is

So now we see the cow in you. LOL

Seriously as a gamer, manticore or whatever you call them. This for its time on the original Xbox was an amazing game that equalled and well bettered the disappoining DMC2 (at that point). And was at the top of the pile of action adventure fighting games.

NG has been slated for years by many gamers(cows) til they got Sigma now theirs more and more threads on how it sucks and is over-rated. Grow up please...

im a cow? hmmm who told u that? FYI IM A WII60 OWNER. u dont have the right

I dont care what you own to behonest you sure as hell think your point matters over all of us. Labelling gaming mags/sites as biased coz they disagree with you and favour the 360.

GoW is a great game and so is NG. Both are very different but both are very great. I prefer NG but I'd never say GOW is rubbish coz its repetitive combat with little skill compared to NG. If all games were the same they'd get boring quick.

repetitive combat, (oh and here's the punch line) WITH LITTLE SKILL.... HA! u r a funny man. very very funny

irrelevent crap??!!! ok fake boy, then why are you bring up "xbox in japan" and "American journalists" intoa thread about ninja gaiden?? youre stating your rubbish opinion as fact and ignoring everyone elses opinion, and keep on going with your mindless babling. GET SOME facts then try to argue.

and looking at the responses in your PATHETIC excuse of a thread, youre the one that should, "Go away"

obviously u cut into the middle of the thread, and is ranting on thinking that ur postings r relevant. like i said before GO AWAY. and if u want facts, here go fetch boy. if u even bothered to pick up a magazine, log onto the internet, or look at anything gaming, u see a hell of a lot more microsoft than anything else. gears, bioshock, halo 3, what ever... that's a fact. x box in japan, u probably didnt take the time to look at the sales of the console in japan. its barely surviving. there's another fact. but hopefully u wont get a chance to read this, as u've should already be gone by now

kid, learn to type maybe people will take you fakeboy act more seriously next time you try to waste bandwidth and create a pathetic thread like this. good job trying to create a thread about NG and then trying to turn into, "people are biased for MS...man" thread. but you failed miserably, try harder next time troll.
