 Ninja Gaiden Black review:
Pros:- Possibly best-looking Xbox game ever- Deep combat system rewards extensive play- Extra content makes it worth the second purchase- Terrific soundtrack, great production values- Nicely constructed storylineCons:- Platform sections are truly awful- Camera still annoys- Confused Chuck Norris-style English-language voice-acting

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
The hard-as-nails Ninja Gaiden is back, with improved camera system, a new mission mode and bonus game. At a budget price, you'd be crazy not let own this gem.

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
What can you say about Ninja Gaiden that hasn’t already been said? Team Ninja’s brilliant M-rated revitalization of the classic arcade franchise last year catapulted the game to many "Best of" lists and catapulted many a busted Xbox controller into the trash. I personally sacrificed three of them to the assorted enemies, sub bosses and bosses during the month it took me to finish the game. Afterward, I felt like I should get an Alma tattoo on my butt so I could crush that evil, spaghetti-haired, scaly polygon b!+@h each time I sat down. As much trouble as the other bosses were, I still ended up hating her the most... but I’ll take that up with my therapist later- I’m in the middle of writing a review. In case you missed the game for whatever reason or even if you’ve already beaten it, you have no excuse not to buy it now. Ninja Gaiden Black combines the original game’s content with the two Xbox Live-only Hurricane Packs and some sweet bonus features that make the $30 price tag one of the best bargains of the year.

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
There is no shame in becoming a Ninja Dog if it means you can finally finish this fantastic adventure.It’s not very often I can recommend a game with virtually no reservation, but Ninja Gaiden Black is one of those few titles that everyone with an Xbox should at least play and probably own.Once you go Black you’ll never go back…

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
That isn't to say run out and buy it, this is most definitely, despite its amazing quality, a rent-first situation. And just as a word of caution to players looking to dive into this game - it never hurts to have a box of those squeezable stress balls on hand.

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
Owners of the original Ninja Gaiden, on the other hand, probably won't find enough new content here to justify a purchase, especially if they've taken the initiative to download the Hurricane Packs, content updates to the original that can be nabbed for free over Xbox Live. Everything included in both packs has also been included in Ninja Gaiden Black.

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
99, you are getting an award winning game filled with 20 hours of gameplay, plus another 20 hours of extra missions, not to mention extra difficulty levels that will truly test your ninja skills and two old-school gaming classics. There is no reason why you shouldn’t check this one out, especially with the next generation of gaming coming soon.

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
And if all that content isn't enough, you even get the old school arcade Ninja Gaiden, too. Whether you've beaten the original version of the game on every single difficulty level or don't know your Gaiden from your garden, Ninja Gaiden: Black marks the perfect reason to once again get in touch with your inner ninja

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
It was critically acclaimed and was fairly unique in its gameplay due to one of the most refined combat systems of this generation. It focused on the intense, fast, cut and slash action of ninja warriors when confronted in open ground. Overall an excellent game.Since it was such an excellent game, Tecmo and Team Ninja

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
If you die more than three times in any one of the early levels, you'll be given the option of playing through the game on the "Ninja Dog" difficulty, thus, as the game puts it, abandoning the ninja way. To add insult to injury, you'll also be outfitted with a pretty pink bracelet.

Ninja Gaiden Black review:
+ It's Ninja Gaiden with more cool stuff. You'd have to be the most cynical ass on the planet to pass it up.+ This game is a harsh mistress but it's still very addictive.+ One of the greatest presentations this Xbox generation. Itagaki's graphical skills put most developers to shame.+ Classic Ninja Gaiden goodness, though I'm not too fond of that aged arcade game.
