  1. Ninja Gaiden made a great comeback was all thank to Tomonobu Itagaki
    The guy understood what made the original games great and went further with the aid of advanced technique to create Ninja Gaiden Black and Ninja Gaiden 2, the most intense action games I've ever played. His philosophy about this franchise is what made it great.
    When he was forced to leave the franchise, it's gone down hill since then.
    In term of pure action, Ninja Gaiden Black and Ninja Gaiden 2 are GOAT.

  2. Never forget that some psycho out there beat this game on master ninja mode in only 35 mins LOL. Legendary game that legit tested you. Thank you team ninja

  3. My favorite game of all time. Unfortunately without Tomonobu Itagaki over seeing things, and likewise without Itagaki having a team like Team Ninja to lead, a game like this just doesn't come around again apparently…plus the demand probably isn't there for it.

  4. The difficulty system is also relentless. The enemy level upgrades in a way that it doesn't simply makes it a damage spounge, like many other games. It makers their AI smarter and forces early encounters with endgame versions of the enemy.

  5. Ninja Gaiden needs a comeback indeed.
    And a strong one at best!.

    My love for Ninja Gaiden has never left, not even since Childhood since the classic NG games on the NES.

  6. No RPG elements/grinding required, the Soulsification of action games has been so tiring, the Nioh games are so disappointing in comparison to NG Black.
