Why is Ninja Gaiden 3 not as hyped up as the first two were to people? o.O
Thought it was a pretty good series. |
Because Itagaki, the man that basically made the series what it is today, is gone. A lot of Nina Giaden's hype always came from the big fans of the modern games (like me). However with all the dreadful changes they have made to this game it's pretty hard to get excited. As an example we have gone from having 8 unique, well balanced and fun weapons each with HUGE combo lists to master.... to one.
A lot of the core fans simply weren't interested in multiplayer especially when it seems to have come at such a ridiculously high cost to the singleplayer. Despite the singleplayer being HUGELY stripped of content the time estimate they gave was 8-10 hours, compared to 15 hours estimate for NG2. So getting a campaign with 2/3rds the length and 1/8th the weapon variety. With features like dismemberment etc removed.
Basically a lot of us feel it will end up being a good action game but a bad Ninja Gaiden game.

Wow theres only 1 wepon now? Thats pretty crazy, though i dont remember ng2 eing 15 hours it took me like 8-10.

Well we can't play through the game yet. 10hours for NG2 would be pretty fast though. At the moment we have to compare what they are stating. NG2 was stated to be around 15 hours long. Whereas for NG3 Tecmo is stating it will be around 8-10 hours long. Usually games are a little shorter than stated time. My point was simply that even for the time they are giving it is very short.
AndrewWK the first two games are the best action games ever made in my opinion. The combat system is totally unmatched. I would recommend getting Sigma on the PS3 instead of black. However I personally would recommend NG2 over NG 2 Sigma. Even though there were some additions there were also a fair amount of compromises to get it to work with the engine they used for the PS3 version.
