Ninja Gaiden Black

[Depu Techiikue]

My old topic has been archived and dead for a long time now, so I figured I'd start a new one.

Who here plays this game? Basically this is the original Ninja Gaiden released on Xbox with more features added, new difficulties, and some other changes. The best feature is Mission Mode, you can replay certain battles in the game and they become more challenging, then you can unlock harder difficulties for the missions.

Here's a video of me playing a mission on Master Ninja (hardest difficulty for mission mode), and I almost won... but fell into a trap. :( XD

Lolololol class vid Kryt xD Got owned pretty bad in the end haha xD Must've been intense back then lol xD
I dunno, still a bit in a doubt if I should get NG Black or not, since Sigma is gonna come for PS3...
(I WANT A NINJA GAIDEN 2 ; ; )

XD Yeaaaaah I got owned :p lol

Yeah that's true, Sigma will be like NG Black version 5.0

UG, in my opinion, it's the best game on the Xbox console. You should check it out, NG Black :p

It's recently just dropped to Platinum Hits price, so however much those cost for your areas that's how much a new copy will cost now.

Should I post up some of my other videos of playing this? :p

Damn, your video is too old there .KrytikaL. (no one has downloaded it in over a month). Do you reckon you could upload a new file so I could check out you getting shown whose boss? Heh, just kidding, I suck at this game. I'm usually a pro at hard titles, but I just don't seem to have the patience to practise and learn new moves. Cheating ruins the fun, but I must admit this is one awesome and hectic game. Got any good tips? There must have been a time when you were new to this and you thought it was way too difficult, right? ...No, well, what's your secret? ;)

Ninja Gaiden and the re-release were certainly ample improvements over the Nes/Snes titles, so I suppose they were worth the wait. I wouldn't doubt that we'll perhaps see a Ninja Gaiden 2 on the Xbox360...just give it time.

Whoa, I'm surprised I never saw Traz' post here either. :( Sorry duder. =p

Yeah I could re-upload it again. And the other ones too, which I forgot to post the link for. xD

xD!! Yep I sucked big time when I first started playing. Well, as for tips, what I usually do is hit them with the Inazua Drop (or w/e the fook it's called xP), if it can be hit on them. If I get surrounded by just a few enemies, I hit them with some counter attacks (done by blocking, then once they go to hit you, hit X then follow up with a combo), which enables you to hit all of them around you. Also, one thing I do a lot is if I see an enemy in front of me, and some more behind that enemy, I'll jump off the first enemy and do a (^ + Y) combination so he flies at them slashing his sword, killing them instantly usually.

Also, be sure you roll a lot too. =p Also use the walls around you for advantage, like run up them, jump off, then do a (V + Y) hit. Then quickly mash (A + X) together to fly at the nearest one and throw the enemy away, giving you some breathing room. Also, never use your shurikens, unless it's an in air combo. One of my favorite combos is (X + X + Y + X + X + X + B + B + X + X + X + Y). By the first Y, they're in the air, and you can throw your shurikens at them in mid air, then finnish it off with more slashes and a Inazua Drop (or w/e XP).

And, if you get surrounded by a huge mass of enemies, the best two options are; a) jump your way out, doing the forward + Y combo to slice away at your foes, or b) use your ninpo (lightning works best).

That's all the tips I can give, really. =p Your best friends in this game will be; a) the forward + Y (while in air) combo, b) rolling, c) counter attacks, d) Inazua Drop, and e) the lightning ninpo. The other ninpos are great where they are effective, but lightning will pwn the big groups.
