GameSpot writes: "Cave is a Japanese developer best known for its expertise in creating traditional, skill-laden "bullet hell" shooters that appeal to a devout niche audience. Recently, however, the company has been making its attempts at other game genres more visible to the public. It's latest effort, Nin2-Jump, is a tightly focused platformer that urges you to complete stages as quickly as possible to achieve a good ranking. Coming to grips with the challenges in each level provides an addictive hook, and posting a great time on the leaderboards makes all of your hard work worth the effort. Although the short length ends this platformer before you're willing to part with the controller, Nin2-Jump is still a lot of fun while it lasts".
Microsoft has once again released another trio of backwards compatible games which are now ready to play on Xbox One and Xbox One S consoles.
Waiting for Lost Odyssey. I thought Blue Dragon was already added. Guess not.
Rubbish. If you're doing BC do it right. I don't own XB1 but they should add Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Midnight Club LA, Burnout Paradise, and Modern Warfare 2.
Bad Company 2 is on Steam still...however Bad Company 1 has never had a release past ps3/360
MS would love to just add game , but something tells me the ones holding up the games are the publishers & developers of those games .
okay, i can understand their position on not adding new games that people want, so why no go public with this info and basically shame the publishers into releasing the stuff for BC, its not like they are going to remaster everything
Could be, but publishers of games that no longer sell would be open to an all new market and those who do own the games may purchase an expansion they never got around to buying... Seems to me this would be a win for publishers but you never know.
They should never have asked publishers in the first place. Backwards compatability is basic computing. I know they have to emulate but that's irrelevant.
This way we get like 5% of the games. Let the publishers sue. They'd lose.
Casually Hardcore checks out NIN2 Jump. A shrewd ninja named NIN-JA stands up to rescue Princess SAKURA who was kidnapped by the evil ninja named NAMAKURA. Be the greatest ninja master in the world in Adventure Mode by flying freely with jump and chain action to clear all fifty stages
PlayDevil has posted an XBLA review of the new platform game by CAVE, "Nin2-Jump".
Here's more:
If there were a stereotypical platform game story it would be saving the princess, and that is exactly what Nin2-Jump’s hero Nin-Ja is tasked with, as he sets out to rescue his beloved after her capture by the evil Nakamura and his team. It is a story relayed through between-level prose written in amusing ‘Japlish’, though for the life of me I can’t fathom whether the errors in language are deliberate.
Average game.
I think all the hype surounding little games to download is taking really bad proportion.
Because of their format lot of people tolerate a lot of things. This game is clearly not a 7/10.
There's a big hype on this generation for this format, people discovering indie games, but it's been 15 years now we, on PC, play such games.
And before that nobody would pay attention for them, there are a lot of great games that people don't know that are better than the games that are releasing today.
Anyway it's great to see now that such game are very appreciated.
For this one i consider it too easy.
And a bit too short.
Idea is cool but i was waiting more from Cave.
I recommend instead to a lot of player to look for Doujin games on PC, there a lot of SHUP that are 200% better than this.
You don't need a formula 1 or big PC to play to them, even on a very common PC you can play them. If you consider yourselh as a gamer please try some doujin, it will make you remember good old time of arcade gaming.
