DrunknMunky Veteran Posted August 22, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted August 22, 2009 So did anyone play this yet? I just finished playing the demo and thought it was pretty good. If you're expecting Ninja Gaiden you're gonna be butt hurt :laugh: Love cell shaded games, and this one really has it's own charm. Gameplay is mostly button mashing, but there is some light puzzling solving in the demo. And by light, I mean very easy, I'm not sure what age rating the game is aimed at but if you need to collect something for instance, it's usually a few steps away.

+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted August 22, 2009 Subscriber¹ Share Posted August 22, 2009 Was pretty impressed with the demo, pretty short but gives a good idea of what the gameplay is like. Tried the PC and 360 demos and had some problems with the PC demo in that it keeps pausing slightly every 4 or 5 seconds. I don't know why that is as never had that issue before with games.

Minifig Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I just tried it. It's .. surprisingly a lot of fun. I thought it'd be a kids game.. but when I got to the point where you ride your hat as Hiro down the rapids / waterfall part? I started having a lot of fun.. Fishing was strangely fun too.

King Antonius Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I thought it was pretty fun. When is the release date? Might pick it up to go with the new Slim. I love the way the bad ninjas attack you while shouting "NinjaNinjaNinjaNinjaNinjaNinjaNinjaNinjaNinja" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacer Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Wow, I didn't expect this. I'm going to have to check the demo out later. Same with me gigapixels. I love ninja anything, but I was expecting this game to be more kid oriented. I'll be checking out the demo tonight after work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted August 25, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted August 25, 2009 Well tbh it is very kid friendly, but it's fun for the older crowd too (Y) Easy achievements no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pupik Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Any reason the 720p resolution is heavily letterboxed on 16:9 monitor? The game is so squeezed in the middle, that it's impossible to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
