Same here. NG2 brought back some elements of the NES series, like the demon statues. I wonder if NG3 will continue the pattern.
Ninja Gaiden III info bump. Refer to the promo image at the top of this thread while reading: So… Ryu Hayabusa learns the Falcon Punch?
It looks to me that he is taking off his mask. I'm not sure what looks unnatural about the blood tho.
The blood is on his knuckles, and his hand looks like it’s clenching into a fist. I think there are going to be hand to hand combat elements in this game. It’s not a reach for the character, since he’s been in all of the non-volleyball Dead or Alive games.
The blood looks like it is "growing" on his hand (think how the Venom symbiot takes over Spider-Man). And it definitely looks like he's pulling the mask down.
Not sure about the blood “growing”, but it does look like he’s pulling down his face guard. The wait for this game is already unbearable.
RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE. Ninja Gaiden III screenshots. Not going to link them all, but they include beauties like this:
I don't know, I haven't played it yet. But IGN's reviews are becoming pretty silly to me. They seem to be overreacting to criticism of video game review scores in general. The content of the review seems to me that the reviewer doesn't like an easier Ninja Gaiden game that isn't somehow fundamentally different from 1 and 2. I agree with not liking an easier Ninja Gaiden game. (I also think complaints of NG's difficulty are overstated; it's not nearly as difficult as the hype would lead one to believe.) I don't agree with damning the game just because it's easier.
I'm just shocked that reviewer didnt just write that up in all caps, because it seems he was really pissed.
