Well, considering I think Shinobi is the best game I've played for this generation, while Ninja Gaiden X kinda sucks, I guess I'd have to say so.


I guess my (obvious) statement was more rhetorical than anything; I was just glad that someone with good taste in games agreed with me on that one.

My biggest problem with NGX was that it tried to incorporate elements of action, adventure, and fighting games instead of just trying to be a great action game. This reaulted in the game being too long and slow for an action game, too light on puzzles and exploration to be an adventure game, and too shallow (in that you need to learn 3 of the 100's of moves) to be a fighting game.
