demo was great. tho i find ninja gaiden 2 to be a much better game. for me i think no sword based game is near the perfection ninja gaiden 2 is.

ninja gaiden 2 had better graphics, much more moves , epic battles , bodies do not disappear after death and is bloody as hell.

I have the full game and I'm currently at level 7. The game is good but I personally find NG2 better but in some aspects, NB is better. The combat is nowhere near NG2 but it has some cool sequences (like diving down and fighting the monsters on your way down) but those turret sections are lame! The character looks stupid but the story is better than NG2's so far. I like how QTEs are heavily involved in the game, especially in the cinamatics. The moves that Ken pulls off after doing the QTEs right never gets old. The boss fights are also good and they are more like God of War rather than NG2 because you finish em' off and guess what? another QTE pops! Oh, did I mention you can customize your character? Yay! But you can only change his suits pattern, colors and emblems so he will remain stupid but with your own personal touch :P! You have to unlock the patterns and emblems through the course of gameplay though. The graphics are ok but not great. Environments are kinda repetitive and they are not destructible (only small objects). The character design obviously need work but they are not that bad after you get used to them but NG2 was better at this. The sound is good but I can't stand the english voice acting! Good thing that you can change them to Japanese since it is way better. Some characters in the game are bland and lack depth, especially the American dudes in the game which make them very annoying. Overall, it is good and defiantly worth a try.

The demo didn't do anything for me. It was epic and the camera was much more tamed than Ninja Gaiden, but I think Ninja Gaiden's fighting felt much more satisfying.

I was actually disappointed. The graphics are good but it seems like a complete Ninja Gaiden clone. I was thinking about getting this on release but might wait for some reviews.

I can't wait to get home and try the demo myself but from listening to what most of you guys are saying, it's safe to say that NG is still the greatest ninja game ever.

I beat the entire import and this game kicks butt. If you liked the demo, then expect to absolutely love the full thing. It's sooo much better.

Overall I felt it was halfway decent demo on its own, but compared to something like Ninja Gaiden series makes it seem a little less polished. I might rent it when it comes out.

I played the Japanese demo a while back so I have no idea if they changed anything for the US one, but from what I played it's not worth a purchase. Just felt...average, and the art style was ugly. This developer needs to make another Otogi if they want my attention

The regular combat seemed pretty bland, but the QTEs were some of the best I've ever seen. I love the wrecking ball sequence at the end of it.

I played it, and I really don't know.....The boss fight really didn't appease me. It wasn't hard enough where I had to keep trying....but it took forever.... You know what I am saying? I said to myself damn...when am I going to kill this thing. It is like it sucked as a boss and didn't really provide a challenge but it had a crap load of health....I got bored fighitng it. I think I still would prefer Ninja Gaiden over this. I have not played much more of Ninja Blade other than the demo, it could be better than what I think....but I don't think I should be getting bored on a boss fight.

i played the *** demo months ago and i'd have to say i'll pass on this one. i already have ninja gaiden 2 and this one just felt like a slower version of it plus the QTEs

I quite liked it, but there was an odd feeling about it. It's certainly nicer looking than Ninja Gaiden, and it seemed much more fast paced, but there wasn't any challenge. It could have been because it was a demo, but let's hope the difficulty's cranked up a bit. The spider boss was woeful though, so easy and dull. There's something wrong with the combat too, the dash doesn't quite work properly, nor does hitting an enemy. I'd do a combo, only to see the ninja guy attack thin air for 3 seconds, I've never had that problem with DMC or NG. Still, it has a charm about it, something that Ninja Gaiden 2 very much lacked. Doubt I'd buy it though.

That was my biggest problem with the game, way too much QTE's.

The only thing it offered me was flashy graphics. I didn't find the QTE's particularly engaging, I couldn't help but feel I was playing a cheap knock off of the Ninja Gaiden series, and all in all I just felt the Ninja Gaiden series does it all, but ten times better. Not even going to rent this one I don't think...

I have this game a long time now.I think that battles are not as good as ninja gaiden but overall ninja blade is probably better.

something between NG,DMC and God OF war all in one game.its exactly as how iraqi_Gangster describes it.probably 7.5 or 8.0

I hope it isn't as bad as the first trailer was.
