Foxy Cleopatra #2 Posted May 16, 2004 If you like hard games that will kick your ass all over the room, then yes spend the $50 If you like games with stunningly beautiful graphics, then yes spend the $50 Great game worth every penny, IF you can master it......

figgler #6 Posted May 18, 2004 I have been getting into Ninja Gaiden Shadow for classic GB lately. If you dig Ninja Gaiden stuff, it's worth a look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adrian M #7 Posted May 18, 2004 Don't forget that the XBOX Ninja Gaiden has the 3 NES titles included, provided you ahve the skill to unlock them! Tecmo and Itagaki love you! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepnut24 #8 Posted May 18, 2004 Its a hard game, but the value is there. Not my cup of tea though. No, Im not bad at it, I just prefer war titles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
figgler #9 Posted May 18, 2004 Don't forget that the XBOX Ninja Gaiden has the 3 NES titles included, provided you ahve the skill to unlock them! They are not the SNES versions? Weird. Or why not have both even? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mendon #11 Posted May 18, 2004 Don't know if its true but I've heard that Xbox Ninja Gaiden has set the record for most broken controllers out of frustration Mendon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liveinabin #12 Posted May 18, 2004 Oh yeah, this is the game that Penny Arcade described as "so hard it kills your friends". Is it really so hard? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liquid_sky #13 Posted May 18, 2004 if you had an NTSC xbox i would loan you my copy dave.. its that hard.. yet not SNK boss syndrome hard. It takes alot of quick wits and thinking when you need to block and counter and whatnot. If you DO have an NTSC xbox (i know how you are with your hatred for PAL pal) shoot me a PM.

JerseyDevil #15 Posted May 18, 2004 i am considering buying this game but i dont usually like to spend $50 on a game would you guys recommend this game and say it's worth the money?I usually go by reviews from egm but i cant find the issue where they reviewed this game so i need some opinions. The March 2004 issue of Official Xbox Magazine had a playable demo of Ninja Gaiden, try to find that. Maybe your local store has back issues laying around?

figgler #16 Posted May 19, 2004 They are not the SNES versions? Weird. Or why not have both even? ???? I always liked the SNES remakes are better than the NES verions, if only graphically. I suppose Tecmo is catering to the older nostalgia since most know the originals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eldunko #17 Posted May 19, 2004 I thought they were the SNES versions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PuddWakkr #18 Posted June 2, 2004 I'm not sure how many know this but the PAL version of Ninja Gaiden was censored pretty heavily. There is a patch available for the game but you will need a modded xbox to apply it. If anyone here is interested here is a link to the torrent. NinjaGaidenPAL Censored patch. I believe you need to have the game copied to your HD and replace 6 files in the Ninja Gaiden directory. Now go enjoy some dismemberment Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
