  • Abstract:  Like the best Hong Kong action flicks, Ninja Gaiden turns extreme violence into a beautiful art form. The games balletic combat, a dazzling dance of flashing steel and severed limbs, is an astonishing spectacle. The challenge lies in not only masteri...

  Published: 2017-04-24, Author: Jonathan , review by: cheatcc.com

  • Abstract:  Just as I had expected, Ninja Gaiden II for the Xbox 360 is an exhilarating, gore-filled ride that's heavy on action and not much else. All the best elements from prior Team Ninja offerings are present and accounted for, along with a few changes and impro...

  • Unbelievably fast paced action; Amazing weapon animations; Rewarding challenge; Regenerating health system and obliteration techniques are great additions to an already stellar combat system; Intelligent and extremely aggressive enemy AI.
  • Frustrating camera; Brutal difficulty may be too much for many gamers to handle; Ocassional frame-rate issues; Weak storyline.
  • Ninja Gaiden 2 may not be for everyone, but regardless of that it is still one of the deepest and most rewarding pure action games to be found on this current generation of consoles.

  • Team Ninja has done a good job of once again bringing Ryu Hayabusa back into our world as gamers. While it is comforting to see characters like Link and Mario still around from when I was younger, it is nice to see some of the more violent characters ...
