The Best Ninja Game Ever Made

User Rating: 10 | Ninja Gaiden Black XBOX
They say the first boss is suppose to be the easiest, he's suppose to be a wimp. In the new Ninja Gadien (both the original and Black) for Xbox, the first boss is anything but a wimp, he's an unstoppable killing machine that is built like a tank. Then again the difficulty of the game, is what makes the Xbox Verson of the famous Ninja Gaiden Series so good.

The difficulty combined with fantastic graphics, excellent controls and fantastic story set the stage for a game that more then lives up to the Ninja Gaiden Legacy. The game centers around the one man army known as Ryu Hayubusa, and his battle against the powerful Vigoor Empire for control of a sword that is said to posses the ability to turn it's wielder into the Devil incarnet.

The game's best feature is of course it's graphics, which help imerse the player in the storyline of the game. The controls are fairly easy to master, though it may take some time to get use too. But of course, what makes Ninja Gaiden Black so good is it's fast pace action. The game features a nice balance between stealth and doing what a Ninja does best, going around beating up demons, and other enemies.

Of course the game's greatest weakness is it's difficulty, every gamer enjoy's a challenge, but there's a difference between a challenge and a gamer's worst nightmare when it comes to difficultiy, believe me when I say, you might want to have either a stratagy guide ready or a really good cheat sheet handy

Dispite it's nearly unbeatable difficulty, Ninja Gaiden is well worth the money spent on it.
