FAIRLY DECENT

I THINK THIS GAME GOT A LOT OF BAD REVIEWS BECAUSE ITS NOT WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A NINJA GAIDEN INSTALLMENT. THERE IS NO VARIETY OF WEAPONS WHICH IS DEFINETELY USUAL FOR A NINJA GAIDEN INSTALLMENT BUT ONLY THREE MAIN WEAPONS U CAN USE THROUGHOUT THE GAME. THE LAST NINJA SWORD THAT YOU RECIEVE IS THE DARK DRAGON BLADE. THERE ARE A LOT OF UNNECESSARY SUB-BOSS FIGHTS THAT I THINK THE GAME COULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT. THE CAMERA ANGLES ARE A PAIN BUT YOU CAN GET USE TO THEM IF PLAYED CORRECTLY. THE GAME BECOMES VERY PREDICTABLE IN THE LIVE TRIGGER SCENES WHICH MAKES IT A BORE BECAUSE U ALREADY KNOW WHICH BUTTON TO PRESS BEFORE YOUR QUED TO DO SO. NINJA GAIDEN 3 IS ITS OWN STORY SO IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A SEQUEL YOU SHOULD NOT ANTICIAPTE TO BUY THIS GAME BUT RATHER RENT IT TO SEE IF YOU LIKE IT. THE CURSE THAT RYU DEVELOPS DOESNT SEEM TO PLAY A MAJOR ROLE IN THE STORY OR PLOT. A GAME LIKE SHINOBI FOR PS2 THE CURSE OF THE SWORD ACTUALLY DIMINISHED HIS HEALTH WHICH DID EFFECT GAMEPLAY. IN NINJA GAIDEN 3 THE CURSE SEEMS TO BE A SCAPEGOAT FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE STORY WHICH WAS POORLY PUT TOGETHER. IT IS A DECENT GAME BUT DOES NOT RIVAL THE PAST INSTALLMENTS OF THE NINJA GAIDEN SERIES. I WOULD RENT THIS GAME BEFORE ACTUALLY BUYING IT

screw this game forever.the story mode is lame.its got tons of movies that arent even fun to watch.the moves are all the same,just button mash your not even in control of the attacks half of the time.the online is fun except for all of the glitches that come out and lag when your fighting.the greedy mooks made it so THE DLC TALON WEAPON IS ONLY ON THE CAMPAiGN.IF YOU WANT IT ONLINE YOURE GONNA HAVE TO PAY. i messed up and bought this garbage and i was waiting for the DLC to come out to see if it had helped b4 i took it back but to no avail,im taking it back now. this game bites!!!!!!
