HardGame2 reviews Ninja Blade

HardGame2 writes: "Ninja Blade is the first 'sleeper' of this year, because few were expecting something from it and has established itself as one of the best action games in the third person on the Xbox 360. A title thrilling, exciting and intense that it will keep you hooked until the end of the adventure."

^ I guess its all personal taste, but over all it isnt getting the best reactions.

Batusai6258d ago

I not agree with OXM review. "Not enough room for exploration", if it is an action game, impressive, with a lot of big enemies, why do you need exploration?

For example, Rambo movie was a bad film because there wasn't exploration? or Kill Bill?

I think is more easy blame this type of games and not others like Halo 3, that is a mediocre FPS and has a lot of 10/10 in a lot of medias.

I was right there with you until your halo jealousy kicked in.

SRU96006258d ago (Edited 6258d ago )

I really liked the demo.

It looked awesome and some of the moves were very cool (stabbing your blade into the ground and drop kicking your opponent was my favorite).

I HATE quick time events, but the actual gameplay was cool enough to make me endure them.

Looks like we're in for a review-for-review fanboy battle!

frayer6258d ago

This game don't deserve popcorn. More like tomatoes...

hippo246258d ago

Looks to be shaping up to be at least a decent game...Ill reserve judgement until a few more reviews appear.

Well aren't you cool? Taking a game that was pretty much universally acclaimed and then saying that one that received mediocre to bad reviews across the board is better... There's always one "hipster" out there with a contrarian opinion.

I don’t remember much of it but wasn’t it a QTE heavy game like Asura’s Wrath and GOW3?

NecrumOddBoy2588d ago (Edited 2588d ago )

It was like the Xbox Ninja Gaiden with an insane amount of QTEs. Not bad but not innovative.

SamPao2588d ago

Asura's Wrath and GOW3s QTE usage are planets apart though :D

Youngindy212588d ago

Both of those games were good so....

The Adventures of Cookie and Cream (Or Kuri Kuri Mix as is known in PAL territories) is actually a pretty good game, and gets damn hard in the latter stages.

I'd love to see FromSoft make King's Field 5, or maybe another Armoured Core. I love the Souls games, but I don't want to see it milked for all its worth.

Duke193680d ago

Didn't they also make the 3D Dot Game Heroes (or something like that).

I actually enjoyed that a lot on PS3

eyoung253680d ago

They actually only handled publishing in Japan. It was developed by Silicon Studio.

eyoung253680d ago

I wanted to keep the entries to their own respective genres. Chromehounds and Armored Core are both mecha. I almost included it though.

DarXyde3680d ago

I came here to learn something new and left disappointed.

DarXyde3680d ago

...I'm saying I knew FromSoft had a hand in all of these games. I would know, I own/ed most of them.

WhyWai883679d ago

Armored Core series producer left From Software.
My guess is the company shifted all focus to Souls series... :(
RIP Armored Core....

eyoung253679d ago

I would love to see them come out with a new IP in the mecha genre. Armored Core was cool, but I think they have expanded their skills to make a more unique game.
