Tenchu Z....how did it turn out? Abysmal or passable?

[QUOTE="SkyRaid"]It's better than the last one, Tenchu Fans will like it.

The rest? not so much.

Tenchu 3 was an incremental upgrade with some good ideas tossed in, all fine, but Tenchu K was just even worse than that. I mean Tenchu 3 on XBOX was really good due to the upgrades they had made such as a nice MP, but this was many steps back. In other words, before Tenchu Z, there was only ever one bad one.

Offcourse, for Wii, this is a fantastic game

Do you even know the score range for a game to be labeled abysmal ? Check your vocabulary.

Topic creator asked if it was abysmal or passable. It isnt passable in my opinion, so i picked abysmal. Still got a problem with that?

dont listen to people who bash tenchu z, sure the graphics are not amazing, but the real game improves a lot on the demo. These days if its not splinter cell or metal gear solid then its not good it seems ( actually tenchu came before the first 3d metal gear solid game, so tenchu was actually the first real stealth game) tenchu z is very fun, great co op and its hard if you suck at it, i guess people either really suck at tenchu, or are just graphics whores. Dont let the demo fool you, the full game is great.Film-Guy

Thief III on Xbox was amazing! Definitely in my top 5 fav games ever. Are you telling me the first two Thief games are better!?:shock:

This generation, it will be the Wii that will be killing our games for crappy casual mini-game collections

Offcourse, those games will never see the light of day in the new industry that Nintendo has created

I never beat Thief Deadly Shadows. I should go play it on my 360 since it's backwards compatible.

I wish I at least had a silver account, but the reason that I do not have live is because I have a dial-up connection still.:(

Wow....that is one of those, "SHOOO, I think someone just crapped in the corner" scores.:lol: A big no thanks on this one. What a waste too. As if done right, Tenchu could become a great series. I always thought so with the older ones at least.

[QUOTE="ironcreed"]Wow....it's unanimous it seems. A pretty good indicator of how bad it must really be, lol. As you all know, normally with most games you get conflicting reviews and ultimately of course have to see for yourself if you like the game or not. The verdict seems pretty clear on this one though, therefore, I will stay far, far away. When everyone seems to agree that a game sucks with no arguement....it usually means it is pretty bad.turgore

The people here are noobs . Find a way to play the demo maybe at a friends ... and decide for yourself, don't let the others decide for you. It's not great but no Tenchu game was but there are probably better games out there ...but not with Ninjas.

I gotta say... Tenchu Z kinda showed me the beauty of next gen games... Games that before would have been almost unplayable, with updated graphics and stuff.. really arent too terrible, like, the game isnt particularly good or anything, but its definately dumb fun, just jumping around only to leap down behind someone, sprint up to them and stick your sword through their back.. is actually pretty fun, lol.. and youre absolutely right, just being a ninja makes this game exponentially more fun, lol

Definately a decent rental, me thinks.

True Story

What a shame 4.9. If the Wii never existed, they wouldve invested more into it. I guess not...Taz720

Only a true fanboy nerd could turn a 360 flop into Wii ownage.
