Personally I hate Ninja Gaiden on principle, as it's a franchise that's sold entirely on blood and boobs, but if it's fun to play I'll probably at least rent it.

Incidentally, that's the same reason I hate God of War. Both are basically inherintly immature franchises.


lol, wow, then there must be a lot of things going on in this society today you find distastful. I applaud that.

Thanks for your opinion, I don't exactly agree, since I find 'boobs' such a small part of the game (god of war, since I haven't played the NG game yet), and I really can do without the bloods, I agree with your point. I wish there's more of a 'care' put into the actual storyline. The storyline they had made little sense, to a point where I just skip all the dialog and went straight to battle

Is it just me or did this game take forever to come out. Seems so long ago that they announced this game. I thought it had come and left already.

God of War's story has as much to do with greek mythology as X-Men has to do with actual genetics. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

8.6 ... better than what I was expecting ... my interest faded away for this game , true , but its still impressive :)



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

I don't get it, from the same 2-3 pathetic Sony tools converging on this game I would have figured it had gotten a bad score to elicit typical trolling. Unless anything below 9 is now considered abominable?



Tag - "No trolling on my watch!"

 Really? I didn't play a huge amount of the original Ninja Gaiden but what I did I enjoyed immensly, I didn't notice any boobs at all and just ignored the blood. I found it fun because; 1. It was fucking hard, 2. It employed more platforming elements than your traditional hack'n'slash, 3. Ninjas are pretty cool =O

But yeah, the only boobs I remember were on that ugly reptile like boss in the church.
