I really don't think Shinobi not being hard enough will be a concern.Quote:

Shinobi can be pretty tricky, some levels are a pain as well as a lot of the latter bosses. From what I have read its a LOT harder then Gungrave, but I have yet to play Gungrave so I am not sure.
I voted that its a heir fit for the Shinobi name. The only way to make it perfectly fit the other Shinobis was to go the Contra:SS route, but I don't think Sega wanted to do that. In my opinion Shinobi in the genral is kinda generic, but that does not mean its not a great game. All Ninja games are pretty generic. Shinobi (PS2) is the most different of the Shinobis though, but it features more Tactics and Skills to use then the Previous Shinobis. It may not be exactly like the old Shinobis, but Mario 64 is not like the old Marios either.
Screw Shinobi! Ryu Hayabusa would take Shinobi any day of the week! Now all they need to do is NOT Make Gaiden 3d! Oh how I will spasm with agony if I see Ninja Gaiden become a 3d game. Keep it animated, doodyheads. I CRAVE new 2d platformers on my big systems. I don't want my GBA to be the sole source of 2d games, although what they did with METROID I have no complaints about.
BonusKun needs help Or: I've never played the original.

Uh... don't know how to tell you this bud, but here.
2D ninja gaiden? On xbox? Pardon me while I hold back hysterical laughter. :(

Well, All I can say PS2 Shinobi is hard :) You got to have some good skills, if you want to finish it. Camera has some problems, and aiming can be very distracting, but otherwise its best straigh action 3d Ninja game, as it was said.
Now, I need to finish 7B Boss :)
This is a very hard question. On the one hand, PS2 Shinobi is a great action game with amazing art, music and cool moves like wall-running, tate, etc. But on the other hand, I think Overworks could have made an even better game and and at least could have included some classic Shinobi feel. I still quite enjoy PS2 Shinobi and I'm glad it came out. Hopefully it will be successful and result in many more ninja games.
And don't listen to StriderKyo, he hasn't even played most of the games in the series including the best one, Shinobi 3. :)
What is classic Shinobi feel? Is that like lemon filling?
Classic Shinobi feel would involve more shuriken-throwing than sword-slashing. I think that's the biggest gameplay difference between the old games and the new one.
