Chapter 1: Way of the Ninja This stage is very straightforward, meant to introduce you to the basics of Ninja Gaiden's gameplay elements. Your goal is to reach the ninja fortress's Inner Sanctum, where Murai waits for you. Along the way, you'll find messages detailing the skills you'll need to use in order to proceed past that particular point. Remember them well, as you will most certainly be using them again later on. There are still a few secrets to be found, however. At the very ...

Ninja Gaiden Sigma director plays on Easy

PS3 Feature | Ninja Gaiden Sigma

You'd think the man in charge of one of the toughest games around would play it on the hardest difficulty, wouldn't you? Not so for Yosuke Hayashi, director and producer of Ninja Gaiden Sigma on PS3. Turns out he plays it on "Ninja Dog," which you are offered when you die lots. But we'll forgive him because his game's looking awesome. During a quick Q&A session, Hayashi hinted that the Tecmo development team are split between the three consoles in terms of their favourites, hinting a Wii game ...

8-Bit Sunset

PS3 Feature | Ninja Gaiden Sigma

Back in ye olde days of 8-bit gaming, we didn't have teh interwebs or in-depth FAQs to get us through hours of repetitive dungeons and mindless enemies. We had to do it all ourselves, patiently praying for a wave of cheat codes to come in the next issue of Nintendo Power. Then, after countless hours (literally, because no game would count the hours) we'd see the ending... just to view another 8-bit sunset. Seriously. Another one. How many games do you think end with a scene of the main ...

In addition to getting some hands-on time with the game, we've also had an opportunity to sit down with the game's producer, Yosuke Hayashi (along with associate producer and translator Andrew Szymanski), to find out a little more about what lies in ...

Q&A with Ninja Gaiden Sigma's director

PS3 Feature | Ninja Gaiden Sigma

Ninja Gaiden: Black has been doing the critically-acclaimed rounds on Xbox for a few years now and it's still our second favorite game behind Halo. To all the people who cried "It's too hard" we'd like to say that it's not hard - you're just not playing right. Black is making a comeback, under the moniker Ninja Gaiden: Sigma, on PS3 with more bells and whistles attached to it than we originally thought. The screens look awesome and it's one of the games we're looking forward to checking out on ...

The fugliest games ever made

PS3 Feature | Nucleus (PlayStation Network game)

Sometimes, games look good. Sometimes they look bad. Sometimes they look so bad, we want to stop playing them, take them out of the machine and kill them till they're dead. Occasionally, this happens completely out of the blue in an otherwise great-looking title… and that's what we're here to look at today, in nine different flavours ...
