Mouth.
WOW, Ninja Gaiden, WOW.
Where to start...
Ground breaking visual content, hyper fast frame rate, awesome soundtrack, great surround sounds, full Widescreen 480 support, lighting fast controls, great character movement, literally hundreds of moves, immensely difficult, top draw environments, Bruce Lee chuck move, as Ninja as Ninja can be, excellent presentation, literally life like cut scene videos... Erm...
WOW, Ninja Gaiden, WOW.
It's tough.
Tough indeed.
*weeples*
But it is unbelievably fantastic.
I even beat the first boss on my 2nd go.
Whoop!

Yup, got that on pre-order for next week. Depending on how many people get it I reckon we should set-up and XSN Special Reserve tournament for it, never tried using XSN and this looks to be the best game that uses that feature.
next week I believe I'll fork out for either this, Hitman : Contracts or TOCA 2.
which of the three would you say is the best bet? I'm severely tempted by all 3. I'm not buying more than one, as I can't play them all, I just don't have enough time.
Does Hitman Contracts or Ninja Gaiden have multiplayer? Why are a lot of the great games 1 player only? Grrrr

Yeah, I was gonna post about that yesterday. Also some of the enemies have an attack where they slit your throat and blood just waterfalls out of it, surely that's as bad as a decapitation?

Indeed it was, especially as I didn't know either map well and won a game for our team at one point! I was so proud....hehe.
Sav, may I add you to my Friends list? Scratch that, I will anyway...
Way too bloody hard in my opinion. Sometimes the frustration ends up taking away a lot of the fun. Gotta love the contradicting moment too - anyone else spotted it ? The fact that the Germans moaned and stamped their feet which led to the beheading being taken out of the game. Then what do I see in the more detailed cut scene in the second level ? Some ninja gets his head lobbed off which then rolls along the ground a little while the neck of the body spurts blood like a hose. Hmmmmmmmmm, was there really any point depriving us of the beheadings in the game when it appears in much more explicit detail in the cut scene ?
Just got hold of some Nunchaku and they're every bit as cool as they should be, maybe even more so. I managed to get a 43 hit combo on just 3 guys with them, then I got slayed by 5 Ninja guys and lost them...it was fun while it lasted.
The 3rd chapter looks so different to the first 2, had no idea that there was gonna be modern settings. Very nice it looked too, love kicking those guys with their glow sticks around, they're such girly boys.
