    Believe I've been playing this since 2004! Release of original xbox ... 50 is worth it so worth it that I sold my ps4 and got a ps5 just to get this!!! So yes this game costed me to get a PS5 I LOVE NINJA GAIDEN SERIES ALL OF THEM. SINCE I WAS 12 AND NOW IM 32.

    Picked it up last night, mainly because of nostalgia and it’s definitely worth it for me. But i’m already a huge fan of the gaiden games and the nioh games.

    It’s worth getting Game Pass to play it if you’re a fan of the OG. I’m actually impressed, it’s way better than Sigma 2, but not as good as NG2.

    The thing I haven’t seen anyone mention that consistently annoys me visually is that, as is common with 99% of remakes/remasters, the art design has been misunderstood. In particular, in the original 360 version his suit is very black, very shiny and oh so fetishistically sexy. Much more so than in 1 or 3. In the remaster it is a dull grey. NGII Black in name only.

    It not even worth 50 since like half of the stuff is missing heck and most of the females have been hit with dei modern day stuff, also don't call me a goomer whatever, ayane first appearance was doa 2 1999 I was basically the same age as her years go by I age she hasn't her age stayed the same while mine went up, there no way should would have 5 freaking tournaments at age 16, that just insane.

    "It's a real shame they couldn't recreate Ninja Gaiden 2 in its Black form. Their misleading claims have me worried about Ninja Gaiden 4. PC gamers will no doubt get a very close experience to the second game thanks to future mods. As someone who's had thirty years of memories with this title, and who owes my gaming life to it, I hope they can make the fourth game a success, by respecting the series' roots while introducing fresh ideas. But it's really sad that Itagaki isn't involved."

    I’ve never played a single game in this franchise, so I decided to give it a shot on Game Pass. It definitely feels like a classic Xbox 360 game, albeit with better lighting, which is an improvement. The clunky controls, annoying camera angles, excessive gore, ridiculous plot, and cutscenes are all part of the package. I appreciate how the game shifts settings in every chapter-from New York to Japan, caverns, castles, and even Venice, Italy. The combat is satisfying when you get into a good rhythm, and the finishing animations are punchy and impactful. The soundtrack is outstanding, and you get to play as different characters throughout the campaign. That said, the platforming sections are lacking, and the bosses are merely average. The tag team mode is decent but doesn't stand out. Overall, this game offers a fun experience for both veterans and newcomers, but be ready to face some tough challenges. I don’t regret playing it; however, it’s simply not my favorite genre.

GamePass is nice if there's 1-2 games you want to play through and you pay for a few months. I had more fun with NG3RE, and it's apparent the value for Master Collection is way higher from a gameplay hours standpoint. Graphics are nice for sure, but your brain turns that off when you're playing and all you see is the game information.
