Yeah, yeah,Ninja Gaiden 4 looks pretty cool I guess.
The PS3 version added extra levels with new characters and new bosses.
A definitive version, then?
(It also removed the vast amounts of blood spray in favor of a strange purple aura).
At the very least, the original Ninja Gaiden 2 has remained available via backwards compatibility on Xbox One.
But, for as much as I adore it, the original game isn’t withoutsomeproblems.
“Ryus slashes and strikes pack plenty of impact, and limbs go flying easily.”
It feels a lot closer to the spirit of the original, while ditching some ofthatversions annoyances too.
It results in a game that feels meticulous, a Dragon Sword honed to a fine point.
Would I like enemy groups to be a bit larger?
Sure, I will always say yes.
Ninja Gaiden 2 Black’s got your back.
Ninja Gaiden 2 Black was played on PS5, with a code provided by the publisher.
On a nostalgia kick?
