gamrReview's Joseph Trotter: "In short, Gaiden Z is a disaster. In an attempt to re-think the series after the third recent installment, the creators have swung so far conceptually the other way that it is almost unrecognisable. Gone is the grace and beauty of combat; now thuggish death slams and high-fiving are in. Gone is the charm and likeable hero; instead welcome Yaiba, the epitome of all that is wrong with gaming design. At every stage, except for the wonderful graphics, Gaiden Z has been horrifically misjudged. Don't make the same mistake."
KOEI Tecmo Recently filed a trademark application for the poorly reviewed Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z.
Wow! I seriously loved the first one. Don't know why it was reviewed poorly, it was fun as hell and the humor was great.
I seriously hope they make a sequel in the same style as the first.
Finally got around to playing this one this year. I understand why it got bashed in the reviews but I still enjoyed it as a whole. The combat combos were solid and the traversal prompts looked sweet.
Twinfinite Writes: Koei Tecmo's Nioh shares a lot in common with both Ninja Gaiden and Dark Souls. Could the new title be the future for Team Ninja's flagship series?
Nioh is the Beginning of the Nioh Franchise, the latest amazing Playstation exclusive
Team Ninja creative director discusses the whereabouts of the iconic action franchise, says Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z "wasn't the right move" for the series.
I am a die hard fan but ninja gaiden 3 sucked so make it more like 1 and 2 or not at all.
They should have known better than to make Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z. That didn't look or feel like a Ninja Gaiden game at all. They need to make another one like Ninja Gaiden Sigma that came out on PS3. That was good.
or why don't you redeem yourself and make a seriously good ninja gaiden game instead of making fans wait.
Ninja gaiden... loved that game and remember those great moment on the Xbox.. I'm not much of a fan of remasters but I would buy a pro or Scorpio remaster of ninja gaiden day one...
Dang... I'll still rent this, I think. It seems interesting enough in spite of the low scores I've seen.
sorry guys but i never trust reviews of hack slash games,the reviewers are ever casual gamers what in his dream can beat a great hack slash how devil may cry 3.
After marvelous Soul Sacrifice, it hurts to see Keiji Inafune fail so much
I'm having fun with it so far.
