really? more multiplayer?!?!? sheesh, i hope we get more rachel twirl type situations, i hope you get to use it all the time!!!......
seriously, they need to show kasumi now!
The co-op aspect in ngs2 was okay until you got the bosses that one-hit killed you, or your facing 3-4 bosses at a time, which turned into a joke......sigh, that one stupid trophy is keeping me from the plat ; ;
i will be disappointed if they do not introduce a guest character to play as. NG had rachel, NG2 had momiji, ayane and rachel.
whats the point of move support? i can imagine dead space 2 using re4 style wii mechanics, but ninja gaiden with all the fast pace action and timings, prepare your elbows and shoulders for a workout!

Stealth ninja mixed with segments of crazy Ninja Raiden + insane boss fights would make for a really cool game.

Yeah and DNF has guns.
Blood is back.
Good
Difficulty level won't be toned down for casual gamers.
Good there's no need
There will be both competitive and cooperative modes. One or both will support up to 8 players.
Not sure if going the mp route is worthwhile.
The store is gone. Weapons will upgrade over time.
Fuck that shit I loved the store. Muramasaaaaaaaaaaaa
Greater emphasis on story.

May feature Move support
Who didn't love the store? Weapons upgrade over time? Sounds dumb.
Including MP is also unnecesary, they probably just added it because they felt the game needs it to sell better or something.
UrbanRats said:Not quite, since Volf is the most badass villain ever:
Its design it's so hilariously ridiculous, that's impossible to forget.
It looks like a villain from the Power Rangers, amazing.
How is that badass? Give me a real memorable bosses, Hayashi, not campy cheese that I laugh at while I destroy.
The monster design was one of the lowest points of NG2, easily. Either completely uninspired or taken from a 12 year old's notebook doodles.

bad gameplay lol
Corky said:
And that's why you've never heard/seen it. Nerds don't care about MP. Nerds also don't make up the majority of the gaming audience anymore.
Yeah, I'm heavily generalizing here.

Is Ryu actually chopping up knife-wielding zombies?
At least the tone of the game is right.

It might improve the experience if it gives the developer more control over difficulty curve, but yeah, I'm not to thrilled either.PooBone said:
My rebuttal is anecdotal as well, but I've known three different individuals who turned down one or more games based on the lack of MP. One played Modern Warfare 1&2 exclusively for the MP, going so far as to never touch the campaign of MW2, despite hundreds of hours of MP time.Corky said:
As for Ninja Gaiden 3 itself, I'm cautiously optimistic. Looking forward to it, disaster or success.

If the changes they made to Ayane's design for Sigma 2 are any indication, they'll do fine.
MjFrancis said:
Aye I have no delusions of my reference being anything but anecdotal. Nonetheless I've never been as burned by a sequel as I've been by NG2. I frequently mention on GAF that ng/b is my favorite game of all time, I don't think NG2 would find a spot on my top 100 list, and that's being conservative.
Then again, in a sense, I got my NG fill this generation by Bayonetta, even though I personally think bayo is much more like DMC I thoroughly enjoyed it as "this generations ninja gaiden"
But I digress. I'll be doing myself a favor in not really following the game, thus my non-existant hopes cannot be smashed.

And on the other side of the spectrum are folks who passed on Uncharted 2 because it had a multiplayer component. There are extremes on both sides.MjFrancis said:

I want more human enemies period. Maybe it was the gameplay design, or perhaps it is purely a superficial visual thing but in previous NGs I found fighting other human ninjas much more fun and satisfying than any of the power ranger monsters.
Definitely. The monster designs vary from cool to puzzling, and aren't always aesthetically pleasing. Count me in as someone who was most impressed with the first few levels of Ninja Gaiden. They continue to be visually impressive and have a beautiful aesthetic. Fighting ninjas, samurai and other warriors always seemed to be the most fun I had in the series.Die Squirrel Die said:

Just got a glimpse of a scan. Holy smokes are ninjas juicy in this game.
Ninja Gaiden was rough and the sequel almost killed me. Bring it on!

BOOM! No purchase confirmed.Rated-Rsuperstar said:
Sorry, "hardcore gamers," not wasting my time AGAIN on another cheap-ass game where I have to backtrack through areas where the enemies respawn each time I enter. Call me "casual" all you want, it's not going to increase your chances of making me give you my money any more. Fuck off, Team Ninja. You've had so much potential yet never delivered a fully awesome game.

ok bye
I mean really with all the games out there why get mad that the one known for being challenging is still going to be challenging

Because I'd love to play an awesome ninja game and most devs just add multiple difficulty options so a wide range of people with varying degrees of patience can all experience their game. This developer simply name-calls anyone who disagrees with their ultra-cheap design philosophy and basically slaps it on the back of the box as another bullet point.Chopperman said:
edit: it's mostly frustrating because I fucking love the first half of the other two Ninja Gaiden games until the "difficulty" ramps up to ridiculous levels and then it's just not fun anymore. And for this third game they are parading the fact that they're not fixing the cheapness. It's like Motorstorm Apocalypse, how they kept the cheap rubberband AI in the game. I tolerated the first two games but I'm not wasting my money on a third game until I know that I can experience the whole thing without putting a DS3 through my TV.

2 on Acolyte was about as challenging as any modern mass market action game like God of War (not very).
