| | Ninja Gaiden - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The game is also called "Ninja Gaiden" in Japan (rather than using the original Ninja Ryûkenden name). | | | The arcade version of Ninja Gaiden (released in 1988 in North America and 1989 in Japan) was a Double Dragon-style beat 'em up, in which the player controls a nameless ninja, as he travels to various regions of America (such as San Francisco, New York and Las Vegas) to defeat an evil cult. | | | Ninja Gaiden (for the Xbox) is also one of the few backwards compatible games that is playable on the Xbox 360. |

| | Ninja Gaiden, prevails as an amazing game whose play hearkens back to the vintage days of gaming, though not without a few hindrances. | | | Ninja Gaiden touts roughly 30 hours of gameplay (not counting time spent using multiple continues), making for a large task to complete in the span of a one-week rental. | | | The music in Ninja Gaiden is good, and sets the perfect mood for the situation at hand. |

| | On top of the challenge, you will go through more then 20 hours of gameplay in Ninja Gaiden, which only proves how much of a value the game really is. It is one thing to create a videogame worth playing and constantly challenging, but also a videogame that has lots to offer. | | | Another important feature about Ninja Gaiden that I need to mention is that as you move along throughout the game, you collect items. | | | So expect a lot from Ninja Gaiden on all levels as it's a visual treat as well as a gaming masterpiece. |

| | While this is the first game in almost a decade for the Ninja Gaiden series, players don’t have to be intimately familiar with Ryu’s previous adventures to understand what’s going on. | | | Although Gaiden is one of the most impressive titles for the Xbox, there are a few facets of the game that could’ve been better. | | | Gaiden hearkens back to the old school method of game making, where it took some time and effort to decipher and understand the precise timing necessary to beat a level. |

| | Ninja Gaiden Xbox Review |
| | With the game being ninja orientated you would be forgiven for thinking that an element of stealth would take place, you would of course be wrong as Ninja Gaiden relies solely on its combat system to get you through and thankfully the system is one of the best I’ve ever witnessed in a fighting game. | | | Despite earlier games in the franchise, Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox requires no previous knowledge from the player as far as story lines go as this game features its own. | | | Obviously the game has the player controlling the ninja master Ryu and thankfully, despite the array of moves available to him the controls are kept simple and responsive. |

| | Team Ninja did listen to the cries of the endless stream of players that had been thoroughly housed by the game’s difficulty and included an easier mode called “Ninja Dog.” Like everything else in Ninja Gaiden, your satisfaction must be earned. | | | Team Ninja must have known this, because this is the kind of title that will not only re-invigorate fan’s enthusiasm, but will also prompt many of them to trade in their original versions for Black. | | | One can only imagine what Team Ninja has in store for Gaiden on the next generation equipment, and, quite frankly, topping themselves is not going to be as hard as the Master Ninja difficulty level. |

| | The best way to describe Ninja Gaiden’s gameplay is probably to mention some similar games. | | | Ninja Gaiden isn’t an easy game, but not just because of the hard-hitting villains, but also because you’re often low on health, and because you’ll often find yourself desperately looking for save-points. | | | Ninja Gaiden has similar gameplay mechanics to Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time in that you can make death-defying leaps, run up walls, run along walls, and kick butt in some stylish, and very satisfying ways. |

| | Review - Ninja Gaiden // Xbox /// Eurogamer |
| | No other game manages to deliver on the potential of controlling a ninja with this much flair and authority - it is one of the finest action games ever made. | | | In fact, the only real complaint about Ninja Gaiden's combat system - which is basically 90 per cent of the game - is that there's almost too much at your disposal by the end, with weapons like the Vigor Flail or nunchakus that you could just as well leave to rot in your inventory. | | | You could however quite reasonably argue that the difficulty curves upwards a bit beyond the reach of the average gamer, and that there are too many instances particularly towards the end when you simply don't have enough health elixirs to continue making progress, and falling back to a previous save game becomes necessary. |

| | The game's control is the real reason Ninja Gaiden is absolutely head and shoulders above the rest of the action games this generation. | | | For over ten years, no new Ninja Gaiden games were made, despite the fact that the vast majority of kids who'd started out with NES were growing into adult gamers with fond memories of the series and, if anything, an increased desire to slice demonic enemies into tiny little pieces with a mystical katana. | | | Finally, Itagaki has put his money where his mouth is: Ninja Gaiden is an astonishingly polished game with fantastic control, gorgeous graphics, and gameplay that wipes the floor with the rest of its genre. |

| | The first boss battle was so unexpedtedly difficult ; but this reminded me of the old-school ninja gaiden games, were the enemies were as tough as the ninja and the only way to defeat it was through sheer skill and practice. | | | Those guys at Nintendo knew this when the original Ninja Gaiden game was released, to critical acclaim, on the NES system back in 1989. | | | When playing Ninja Gaiden, it soon becomes apparent that the quality of the visuals surpasses the earlier efforts from Team Ninja. |
