"From Software, purveyors of mecha-driven xbox360 gems like Chrome-Hounds and Armored Core 4, bring 360 fans an action experience that plays out like the twisted offspring of Ninja Gaiden and God of War. Heavy on cinematic action, big swords, huge bosses, crazy magic, and leather-clad uber-Ninjas, Ninja Blade has all the ingredients for a good time. But is this a tasty dish? Or is Ninja Blade better left to the Ninja dogs."
Ninja Blade is From Software’s best ninja game of all time, including Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. At least it’s the best version of a specific type of ninja game.
Well aren't you cool? Taking a game that was pretty much universally acclaimed and then saying that one that received mediocre to bad reviews across the board is better... There's always one "hipster" out there with a contrarian opinion.
I don’t remember much of it but wasn’t it a QTE heavy game like Asura’s Wrath and GOW3?
FromSoftware is a game developer that has found popularity in the gaming industry thanks to their widely popular and best-selling series, Dark Souls. They may have gained notoriety from this series, but they have been around since 1986 with their first video game published in 1994 and have produced many popular games. Here are 5 games they have made that are not Dark Souls.
The Adventures of Cookie and Cream (Or Kuri Kuri Mix as is known in PAL territories) is actually a pretty good game, and gets damn hard in the latter stages.
I'd love to see FromSoft make King's Field 5, or maybe another Armoured Core. I love the Souls games, but I don't want to see it milked for all its worth.
Didn't they also make the 3D Dot Game Heroes (or something like that).
I actually enjoyed that a lot on PS3
Armored Core series producer left From Software.
My guess is the company shifted all focus to Souls series... :(
RIP Armored Core....
"In Mortal Kombat X, Most of the cut scene fights are just there for you to watch, then every once in a while unannounced, the game goes to a quick time event." -Play Legit
Play Heavy Rain and the walking dead series then see if that question is even worth asking.
Yes, yes they should. They've always been an excuse to escalate drama through lazy button prompts than any game design.
Good review but low score. But who cares about scores?
...right?
Mediocre score for a mediocre game. The demo was beyond pathetic. And you bots called MGS4 a movie that players control lol. Goes to show you retarded American bots by whatever turd you can find. No wonder the 360 is more popular in America lol. Delusional turds.
i finished the game and i would say it would be way better if they made only a anime movie from this (cutscenes are superb), because the game is mediocre at best...
That wasn't a bad review at all and I still plan on buying this game.
you cannot even call this a game, its just an interactive movie with bad story plot, action that you take event in with QTE which are badly put in the game, but again its not a game, its a turd of its own level.
