This game has everything that an action game should should have. Maybe more, that is just the story. They should come up with a way to make them attack where they only consume up to half of your health at most. Like I said, I suggest this gameThe cons- little bugs in the gameplay- the ghost fish (I do not think they are fun in anyway). - the gameplay is great- the story is ok- and the characters are pretty cool.There is little that is actually wrong with this game. Because you will most likely want to get sigma 2 after.
The difficultly is somewhat annoying at time, but nothing to get hung up on, i.e. the ghost fish are a pain in the a**. I was never a big Ninja Gaiden fan, but after playing this game I have become one. It does happen a lot but not too much.As you can see there are a lot more pros then cons to me. This game will give you some entertainment for a good ten to 12 hours in one sit through. There is modes after that you can play, and if you have online you can see where you can rank. There is nothing perfect in this world, so if you are thinking about it.
I do not love this game, because I don't love games. -Great graphics- great action- stellar boss battles- and much moreBeing the first installment, I suggest getting this game, if you are a fan of action games. Watching Ryu being eaten to death by fish is just plain stupid. I would actually give it 4.5 stars. I just find them entertaining, and that is what this game is. This is no reason not to get the game. You should get it.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma is the third version of the "new" Ninja Gaiden that first appeared on the original Xbox (and was later re-released on that system as Ninja Gaiden: Black). The puzzles in the pyramid have been removed and replaced with three tough enemies, and there are other places that have been made more difficult (especially since you can't initially change the difficulty, unless you die several times and continue as a "Ninja Dog").Although the in-game graphics look solid in HD, the original cutscenes have simply been ported over and look noticeably poor (they were great before, but on the PS3 they look blurry and jaggy, like they were re-sized to be larger).If you've played the Xbox versions and want to know if it's worth it to play through Sigma, it is.to a point. While it's interesting to kick butt as a sexy, warhammer-wielding vixen, the fun wears off quickly - her levels and enemies are the same as Ryu's, she only has one weapon and a limited moveset, and she attacks very slowly.
The gameplay is as fast and fierce as ever, and in fact the game is more difficult than I remember, as there are more boss fights and ninpo (magic) seems much less powerful than it used to be. Some of these are welcome changes.for instance, the water level after the aqueduct is much shorter and features less fetch-questing, and you no longer HAVE to climb the floating pyramids after fighting Doku the first time. For the most part, it's much the same game; the storyline and settings have mostly been untouched, and while the camera has been improved, it still gets stuck or swings wildly at times.
Those levels feel like padding rather than a new experience.Other differences include new weapons (dual katanas), a few new enemies and bosses, different/moved/new music at times, and a few changes to previous areas. Then again, there's more satisfaction in beating harder enemies.Aside from the graphical upgrades, there are other things that spice up the experience for those who have played the older versions of the game. The biggest addition is in a few levels where you play as Rachel.
There are still annoyances though, like the ghost fish and other enemies who attack in ravenous packs (like the cat-people from the mission mode in Black). The improved graphics make it more enjoyable, but don't expect anything groundbreaking in terms of design.
The main Character RYU's suit you change into after the first round actually reminds me of a Metal Gear Solid outfit. I love a game that is challenging but not cheap or tough for the wrong reasons. Has strategy, difficulty, graphics and is fun. to anyone who likes a challenge and is a true fan of gaming, a hardcore gamer, a fan of japanese style games, or anyone who wants a game that will still be worth playing 10 years down the road. This is the version to get and at 17 dollars, it is a must buy that you will be playing 10 years from now along with the Metal Gear Series, saying "Wow, they don't make em like this anymore." A true classic in the spirit of old school games with a high difficulty (It will ask you if you want to "abandon the way of the ninja" and let you play in very easy mode if you keep dying) that is rewarding to plod through. Anyway, I hope you like this game and I'd recommend it (only for mature adults - NO KIDS please.).
I like that it is a challenge so when I played it today after years of having it, I can enjoy it instead of just running through it. This game is definitely that. It is definitely an all time classic. Much better than #2 from the feel of it. One of the greatest games of all time. The graphics are the best of any version and so is the gameplay. You get some cool additions and the level design and battles are true classics.
The only game of this generation and this style that can compete with NGS is Devil May Cry 4, which is very cool but a much different spirit of rebellion and not as serious. Plus NINJAS ARE AWESOME. Bit of a turnoff too that the sigma version for #2 wasn't much different. In other words, I like a game that Is hard because I messed up, not because the game didn't respond right or was cheap. The enemies would look at home in MGS as well, SOCOM Type pistols included.
I didn't even bother to buy that one even though I have almost every game known to man. Not here though. VERY COOL. Good luck and God bless.-Anjiel
maybe because I am not goot at act game, this game is kind of hard for me. but I have to say if we can practice more, it will be a good experience after you finish it.
This game remind me alot of the old school prince of persia PC games. This game is the most unforgiving, and toughest game I have ever played on any platform. Two words to describe this game, so hard, actually three words, so very hard. Its a lot of jumping around, timing your jumps, going back and force to collect a key or some sort of missing piece of a puzzle. While the story line itself is fairly interesting; the gameplay itself is at time extremely frustrating and unforgiving. You will find yourself pulling out your own hair trying to time the perfect jump or understand what part of a particular puzzle you are missing. And the bosses at each level is very much like to old school games where the bosses do a preprogrammed set of moves that if you can time fairly well will be easy to beat. Overall not an impressive game but fairly fun once you complete it as you will have a sense that accomplished something, kind of like the feeling you finally mowed your lawn or cleaned out an epic mess.
