Ninja Gaiden 3 removes that limb slicing feel good experience



Remember playing Ninja Gaiden 2? slicing and dicing your way through the already hard enough to kill enemies, just when they were about to die you got the last hit you would take an arm, leg, or even an OFF WITH THERE HEAD? Ninja Gaiden 3 will not have the signature feature included in the newest not Tomonobu Itagaki made sequel. What does this mean for the gamers like me that needed to slow down the enemies who were limping at you with one leg or something? A member of the development team has said the following: "We don't think people want to see that anymore, they’ve already seen it." That is very true I have seen it before…. And would like to see it more and with more gore.

Let's not lose our heads over this...ok maybe one.


What do you think this means? They want to make a title that steers away from what Itagaki started? Or maybe something else? I mean realistically speaking sharp swords; scythes, staffs and all the other ninja gear you get can slice through a lot more than people think. Hopefully they’ll see that we need the small feature that makes Ninja Gaiden what it is and it will be in the final build.



With Ninja Gaiden coming out sometime next year there is always more news and other things they will tell us, like perhaps if this is connected to a new Dead Or Alive title!? With Ayane being in the games before,



Kasumi being teased at the end of the second game,


Stop Playing Kasumi we all know thats you


Rachel and her giant hammer slamming down foes like nothing,



Sonia the agent and gun expert form Ninja Gaiden 2,



Last but not least lets not forget about momoji the rookie ninja from Nintendo DS title Dragon Sword whose become independent and bad ass.



Hopefully there is going to be some female help for our boy Ryu Hayabusa after all he ALWAYS has help from a very bad ass and attractive female, one more character they seem to leave out is Hayate another ninja from dead or alive who knows Ryu perhaps he can make his debut in a Ninja Gaiden Title and show us if there’s hope for us Dead Or Alive fighting game fans.

G.I. Joe 2 gets its stars and sharpens its swords.



That’s right readers the sequel to G.I. Joe  puts a ninja into the mix…. Oh I’m sorry I meant besides Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow. Those up to date on their Joe info should be just as excited as I am with this news. Jinx has been brought in to the picture, yes the second most deadly member of the team her resume is so iron clad it even mentions several times “second only to Snake-Eyes.” With skills of infiltration, ninja skills and stealth under her belt we will definitely be treated to a much better action direction with this movie. Who’s playing her you’re thinking? French actress Elodie Yung will play our lovely female ninja Jinx.





Elodie will be joined by Channing Tatum which we know is true, although it has been said that most of the cast from the first one will not return. So are they going to cast everyone again? Leave out there characters? Or worse leave out characters that would help the story? I’m just going to keep you updated with the news that comes to me and hope this movie makes up for the flaws in the first movie.

Mainly all I can think of that can fix this movie is longer and awesome fight scenes, one of the things that hurt the first movie were its short fight scenes. With jinx in the fray I expect to see a ninja battle royale with her and Storm Shadow and then an epic Snake Eyes vs. Storm Shadow fight.
