A fun Ninja game, if you like to stealth kill, if not, look away.

Gameplay: The gameplay plays out as an OK stealth action game. Reason why it is OK, because if you get caught all you have to do is wait around for them to forget about it, and then they act as if they never found you. So, basically, you can run wild throughout the game, and do your objectives, and beat the game without being stealthy. The only reason to get stealth kills is to improve your Ninja rank. I think it would have been better to go by how stealthy you were and how you completed your objective. For example, if your mission is to assassinate someone, it should be a Ninja 5 rank if you don't get detected, or kill anyone else, and then stealth kill your target, instead of stealth killing everyone else and your target. If you enjoy stealth killing, which if I don't think of why, I do, it is pretty fun. Gameplay = 7 / 10.

Graphics: The graphics in this game would qualify for a good looking Xbox game, but on Xbox 360, the graphics need a big improvement. The characters in the cut scenes look blurry, especially the textures, and the blood looks unrealistic. The stealth kills look cool, but there are only a limited amount of them. The graphics are by far the worst thing about this game. Graphics: 6 / 10.

Sound: The gameplay music sounds Japanese and that's a good thing since this is a ninja game. The enemies have a limited amount of alert sounds, maybe 3 at most, and are all in Japanese so I can't understand them anyway. The swords sounds are what you expect, and walking sounds are decent. Sound = 7 / 10.

Value: The series has been around since the Playstation. Since "Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven" the games were good, but slowly declining in quality. Since it is a long series, but slowly declining,. Value: 7 / 10.

Reviewer's Tilt: I found this game fun, but repetitive. 50 mission, 30 of them are identical, but if you have fun with one, you'll have fun with them all. Reviewer's Tilt: 8 / 10.
