A must buy for Ninja Gaiden fans!!!
User Rating: 9.5 | Ninja Gaiden Sigma PS3
Most may remember Ninja Gaiden as one of the Xbox's greatest titles, but now us PS3 owners get to experience the frustration known only as Ninja Gaiden. This game plays exactly like the Xbox versions except you have a new set of weapons (dual wieldable swords!!!) , new missions where you get to play as Rachel, and a few new difficulty modes. The game thrusts you into the ninja tights of Ryu Hayabusa a young Ninja who must protect an evil sword known as the Dark Dragon Blade, but as the case in many games, things go horribly wrong. First off his whole village is destroyed by Doku (the Darth Vader of the ninja world, literally, just wait tol you hear him speak) then he runs off with the Dark Dragon Blade and plans on using it for evil. But it's up to you to defeat him and any other foe, human or not, to get the Dark Dragon Blade back in the hands of the Hayabusa clan. The game is difficult and it takes some time to get used to the new control scheme for the PS3. The game controls and looks extremely smooth compared to the Xbox versions. Another problem that was fixed was the camera angle, the camera can now be turned around wherever you want it to go, and it can be set behind you. The ninpo attacks are charged up by shaking your controller up and down. This game is a must buy for fans of the series, and it's definetly worth checking out if you're a fan of ninja and hack and slash games.
