A lot of games had digitized graphics. You can use more than just real actors when you are using digitized graphics you know. You can use clay models, or even 3D CGI models. Primal Rage used digitized graphics of clay models. Donkey Kong Country, Killer Instinct, and Yoshi's Story used digitized graphics of high quality 3D CGI models.
i dont remember giving a shit about game titles or stories during 16 or 32-bit era, as long as the game was fun i liked it, i remember mashing buttons during any and all dialog to get back to the game, but unfortunately this game was pretty terrible, revenge of shinobi and shinobi 3 were the best
I love this game. The fmv is completely stupid. Sega got carried away with that when they came out with the Sega CD with games like sewer shark and corpse killer But this games really good. It's not the best version of this series but it's definitely lots of fun.
OMG the story plot was really painful to read. If i ever meet the person that wrote that in this lifetime I will run and drop kick him or her in the chest like Zangief from Street Fighter...seriously that was really painful to read.
Another lame reviewer who is far too confident in his own wittiness (or lack thereof).
Shinobi legions had an excellent reception at the time and was both challenging and highly entertaining, and the FMV wasn't bad at all.
If anything is a train wreck, it's your game reviews. Perhaps try to do something a little more original. The overly critical review genre is already very densely populated.
First off, in the end I said it was a good game and you should buy it if you have a Saturn. Second, I've never heard anybody praising the FMV in this game, you are the first. Third, you obviously haven't seen many of my reviews because most of them are of games I really enjoy.
This game is awesome ! I have completed it and it kicks ass. Each level is unique, the music blends in perfectly and the best part of it is the gameplay. A must have if you like platform games.
why would a ninja wear white and red? wearing white makes sense if you're fighting in the snow, but, wearing red? maybe fighting in a kool-aid factory?
Hah, i just ordered this game for 20$ on ebay, it is pretty cheesy but quite fun, i like how the ninjas get sliced in half. Like he said not worth buying a saturn for but worth getting to "beef up" your collection, which is why i'm getting it.
i thought this game looks really good. it looks like it fixed some of the problems there was in shinobi II revenge of the somthing on megadrive. i still remember the cheat for that game, leave the shuriken count to 00 and it turns ti infinet:D
At least with subtitles it's got a kind of cheesy charm to it. Back when this game came out video game companies were convinced that an english dub, no matter how horrible was better than subtitles.
First there was NARC in 1988 which is part of Midway Arcade Treasures 2, that I thought was a good arcade game... But there were also some failures including Batman Forever!!!
looks like a solid game, and one of the few Digitized game that actually looks well, they actually bothered to have a lot of different frames instead of just a few for movements (like Mortal Kombat, sure the digitization itself was good, but they did so few animations for it it looks very choppy).
Yes, they certainly did. Nope, there's no translation either. Glad you like the marathon, I'm kinda glad it's almost over though. I was up 'till 1AM last night doing this one.
Um B movie Ninja movie cut scenes this is freakin awesome lmbo. :)

you bash too much on the FMV... its not really that bad for a video game. And was such an novelty t the time.
Also, it dont interfere with the game since you can skip them.
The graphics were also very good, you migh consider a success, like Mortal Kombat
