En la review, en ningun momento justifica esa nota ni por asomo.

To be blunt, the camera system in Ninja Gaiden sucks.

The camera has a tendency to just focus on Ryu at the most inopportune moments and frequently you'll be punching/kicking an attacker you can't even see. In other circumstances, objects and the environment itself will obstruct your view as the camera swings around. I seriously believe I spent more time fighting the camera than the enemy ninja. The camera issue is extremely frustrating and is clearly the game's primary shortcoming.

From the few instances where the camera does behave, the gameplay in Ninja Gaiden isn't necessarily bad.


Trying to fight out of those situations will frequently end badly, because as soon as one gets a hit in, the others will take some cheap shots. Depending on the weapon, Ryu's 3 or 4 canned combos look pretty exciting and brutal the first few times, though after a short while the enemies begin to block at least half of all your regular attacks. Even with magic, long-range, special attacks and counter-attacks, expect plenty of button mashing action.

In the end, the adventure elements are uninvolving and simple and serve merely as a way to help break up the action segments

As touched on earlier, Ninja Gaiden is a beautiful looking game. It's obvious that Tecmo knows the Xbox hardware well, as most of the environments, animation and effects are gorgeous. The environments are not as interactive as hoped though, with only small, obvious objects such as lanterns, torches and boxes being destructible.

There are a few (often confusing) CG and realtime cut-scenes mixed into the game and they are of your typical modern Team Ninja variety.

The soundtrack doesn't really stand out and the limited voice acting is quite forgettable.

Besides the standard story mode, Ninja Gaiden has an Xbox Live mode called the Master Ninja Tournament.
The mode does not have any type of online gameplay associated with it.


Ninja Gaiden is just not the Ninja Gaiden I expected. It's overwhelmingly mediocre, not enjoyable to play, and the horrendous camera alone destroys any redeeming factors the game may have.

No digo que no pueda tener razón (aunque lo dudo mucho), pero los motivos que alega se me antojan en general, vagos y poco concluyentes.

P.D.: la puntuación de EDGE sí que va a traer cola...

Average? justificada? He estado mirando a ver otros juegos a ver si es que solian puntuar asi de normal. He buscado el ultimo juego que me he pasado, hunter redeemer, juego que tiene una camara mil veces mas pesima que la del ninja gaiden, es cortisimo, y en general ni se le acerca al ninja gaiden. Pues tiene un B-.
