Too late now. :cry:
$5.99 on Amazon.com folks....I liked the demo a lot so I'm buying this.
It's worth the $6. Way better than ninja gaiden 3. Just be warned half the game is QTEs
Yeah the demo had a good amount of it, not really a huge issue for me though since I didn't mind the way it did it too much and if you can stomach the God of War QTE's this shouldn't be too bad.
Interestingly enough I liked the Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge demo and that game is really brutal with it's difficulty so I may check that out when it hits $20 or something.
The OG version of Ninja Gaiden 3 was mind numbingly easy. Hold up on the analog stick and mash the X button ALL DAY LONG.
My memory is a little hazy, but I recall the player character in NG3 morphing from a ninja into a cloud of blood and staying that way for the rest of the game.
I'm up to Mission 7 and a couple of things to note:
- Install the game IMMEDIATELY, it runs pretty badly streaming off the disc especially some the cut scenes. The game also locked up on me a few times before the install but after installing I haven't had any problems.
- Customizing the main costume is pretty rad, did a few neat alternate costumes.
- Not being able to save mid-mission really sucks, they can be reeeeally long.
- Combat is fun and the QTE scenes, while pretty extensive, haven't really bothered me that much unless it's a long chain and I mess up. The shoot-em-up levels also add a nice dash of variety.
- The game has a bit of an irreverent attitude in terms of overall feel which makes it all the more amusing, I especially found Kuroh's "Whatever, I'll see you kids on the ground" dialogue entertaining after a serious intro speech.
- Of course in typical fashion they kill the black guy early which is lame but I'm not surprised.
I've been meaning to play this lately. Wondering if the PC port has any real issues, but will probably play it either way since that's the version I have.
It's pretty bad:

Just get it for Xbox for $6 and install it onto the HD to resolve some performance issues, can't go wrong there.
