  • IGN new slogan "we hate everything thats not COD or God of War"

  • Fuck this guy I loved this game. It's hilarious and and fun

  • this is my opinion : this is avaible for PC so its worth it , if you like DMC , Ninja Gaiden ... just play it

  • An over-the-top, Annie-May sort of way.

  • mute sound and watch video =D , trust me ,it worthful

  • "fight bosses you have already beaten again for no reason"

    I thought that was everyone's fav mission in DMC3...

  • I love this game besides the voice acting and a certain level which is basically a recycle of other levels

  • Already this reviewers voice annoys me he sounds like a little bitch .. anyway, back to ninja gaiden i go :)

  • The game is fun. These asshole reviewers sound like they need to take a vacation and come back with an appreciation for games instead of just pissing on everything and comparing it to the absolute best. Focus on what it does have instead of what game it isn't.

  • @greineisen84 i played the demo was ok ill give it a 7/10

  • It's funny, a lot of the people that bitch and moan about IGN REVIEWS are on other vids they like telling haters "If you dont like this then why are you watching!?" lol. Some people gotta practice what they preach.

  • I don't get why people hate IGN so much, this game has a metacritic of 68. Their job is to REVIEW the game, which means finding and stating the good and the flaws of games, which he did.

    If this was a Gamespot review, nobody would be bitching.

  • too much quick time events but still a good game

  • I wonder what would happen if IGN made a video game...

  • @NfamousShirley1 it would be the worst game in history.

  • try it on onlive for free i did last night and it was alright for half hour

  • IGN reminds me of a friend of mine. he plays video games and loves them, so he says, but the entire time he looks mad and seems to have nothing but bitching and complaining to say about it. The way I see it, I didn't have to make the game, I only have to play it and have fun doing so. I'm sick of these super serious game reviewers.

  • @Poonard check classic game room then, they got their own sense of humor, and fairly nice review in my opinion. but I guess you know it already lol

  • @reynoldricardo i do...but...ughhh you're right. peace!

  • every time i watch IGN game reviews..i feel like they have a bunch of guys over there who are jealous that they themselves aren't making video games. Do these reviewers not know how to have fun playing a video game?

  • This or Ninja Gaiden 2?

  • @VirtualJudgement ninja gaiden ;)

  • all of the bosses just follow patterns? this guy needs to play more videogames...

  • I like this game and yeah, the quick time events can be frustated but then again. It's just freakin'awesome and what this guy didn't mentioned is that you can even customize your ninja! not by just the unlockable things, but in color AND style! ^^

    I'd say, give it a try!

  • Lol this guy can't talk for shit. There is a T in interaction my friend. And How often did he stumble over a word? Your just reading from a piece of paper. How hard is that job?

  • Going by this review, this game has absolutely nothing pro whatsoever. Hating much?

  • Who the f*ck would buy a game called ninja blade and not want an over to top anime plot?

  • @cheesepuff18 because ninja are awesome but anime sucks

  • @needo2new that probably because u fail at it, thats 1 of the best part of the game

  • if this game is easy then i must be fucking crap at it then!!

  • we know that god of war is an awesome game but that doesnt mean u have to compare it to every game u review

  • Omg.... People, IGN has their ow opinion, get over it.

  • love it

  • this is one exclusive that ps3 shouldnt care about having..i got an xbox and i have to say that if you had to choose between this and the ninja gaiden series then go for ninja gaiden. its by far the most challenging game to date..

    this isnt half bad, but it definitely is not challenging...im the kind of guy that wants MORE difficulty....wanting ninja gaiden to be HARDER..

    if your a casual gamer then you should get this, but for me...it just doesnt cut it.

  • iam a xbox 360 guy with that being said ... iam sure ps3 has good games however xbox dose'nt have any good games nope ... xbox360 has fucking badass games &that the bottom line because J-man said so

  • ryu... and ken...lol

  • glad I didnt buy this

    

  • I just realized something.... Street fighter = Ryu/ Ken

    Ninja Gaiden= Ryu

    Ninja blade= Ken

    Coincidence?

  • @blackblur589 i said the same thing bro lol

  • @blackblur589 yes, coincidence

  • this is game is shit. Believe it or not ign isn't lieing. just rent it.

  • Bad AI? BAD AI!?!? A Hack 'n' Slash game doesn't need good AI. Do you think this is Metal Gear Solid? It is just as good as Arkham's. Arkham's AI could attack, block and dodge....And the game is still great! Fuckin IGN

  • lol enemy AI is really bad? this is a SPECTACLE FIGHTER for god sakes look at god of war the AI is fucking terrible, this game isnt as good as god of war or bayonetta but its definalty not bad

  • Ninja blade is a great game, this reviewer hasn't even given it a chance just because it isn't Ninja Gaiden.

  • This isnt a review its a comparison.

  • As I watch this, I can't help but feel like IGN just hates this game because they're used to playing Ninja Gaiden.

  • You can't really blame a game company like Software for doing ninja game like "Ninja Blade" without having to be straight off clone of Ninja Gaiden or any other games and beside's there's no demons in the game just mutated parasites(witch i've heard on IGN very poorly witch is no suprise given thay either smart or brainless when they review games and it shows)+ it's a hack and slash witch is good for excitement.It's just there first go easy on it like i'm going to do and i'm gonig to enjoy it ok

  • Comment removed

  • IGN sucks!

  • This game is terrible! I played it on the PC, I was bored to death. I agree with IGN for once, avoid this game.

  • IGN hates this game so it must be worth buying....

  • Ign is the only place you can go to there comments and see xbox and ps3 fans together saying "those guys are assholes!" lol

  • 6.5 huh? yeah for real IGNorants

  • i dont really pay attention to game reviewers who praise only AAA and AAAA games highly show some love for little league assholes

  • fucking ads

  • this is a very good game

  • I'm sorry has this guy even played Ninja Gaiden, if he did he'd realize that NG re-uses a bunch of enemies over and over again, and technically you could beat everything in that game using the same moves too, this guy needs to give this game a break and actually play some source material, I've heard this game is lots of fun

  • i agree with the lot of you. This guy is nit picking compare this game to x-blades or inferno and then see this. The Ai is a hardest thing to program so i dont be to harsh on anyone about it. and your fighing mutated zombies how smart should they be? The combos are fine and yes the are some easy kill moves, but if you want to play the game in one style you will see it in one style. AND last the enviorment DOES change. It may be a cheap Ninja G, but its at least worth 30-25$ unlike most games.

  • when i was in england i saw this in game for 98 pence O_O

  • Everybody, take a word of advice from DJSG here:

    if IGN says it sucks, its actually a pretty good game

  • the game isnt bad -.-

    its just average that doesent reely make it horrible

    i been playing for a while

    and from what ive played its pretty fun

  • I'm getting this for PC tomorrow.

  • I just played this game... it's bad... could be the PC version, but from what I've seen in this review it's the same game, so yeah, I think it sucks. 2/10

  • i don't believie it a skip button for the ads finally

  • This game was pretty fun. IGN must not know what fun is.

  • yeah this review was pretty ridiculous. "the boss's just follow patterns" WOW REALLY

  • I don't get this guy. There's nothing wrong with this game. It's just a hack and slash game that's fun to playthrough. The only 2 things I agree on is some of the costumes really are ugly, and the Ninja Vision looks terrible. But above that, the overall game is fun, and him saying that you constently feel like your doing the same thing over and over again, isn't true. Allmost every level has it's own challenges. This guy definetly shouldn't have done the review.

  • IGN Ignorant Gamers Notions I guess these peopledidn't pay off IGN so it can be a great game to them. Which is why I don't listen or read ur shitty magazine. Some games aren't meant to be innovative, they are just meant to be played and have fun. This game looks great out of 1 out of 10, I give it a 100.

  • @highonfire3653 that's nice but I don't think any one really care's to be honest with u.

  • hehehe, reminds me of how IGN treated Vampire Rain

  • this is just a god of war but u play ninja no krantos

  • I'm a PS3 fanboy and I think this game looks good. I'd buy an Xbox 360 for this and Alan Wake if it didn't scratch disks!

  • @DumbPeopleActSmart it doesn`t...only when you move it with gsmes inside, but just take them out for 5 seconds when you need to move the 360.

    i had a 360 (still own one) but i bought a PS3 as well =)

  • i have a ps3 but im not a fanboy of any game console because i have a life the main reason i like playing games is just to get high and play them so im not super into every nook and cranny of the ps3..............dont get me wrong i like playing these new awesome games i just dont freak out about them and compare them to other shit

  • Fuck this review, this game kicks ass.

  • i dont know why everybody does it but why the fuck do u watch a review if u allready got a preset opinion and simply watch to flame ^^

  • If all I had to do to make a video game review was compare it to other games, then I'd make millions making comments like "Oh Halo is okay, but it's nothing compared to Battlefield: Bad Company" and "Tekken 6 was passable, but it's nothing compared to the likes of Street Fighter IV and Mortal Kombat." How about "Grand Theft Auto has nothing on Red Dead Redemption???"

  • they need to get the entire IGN team to discuss a game before reviewing it because i swear some of the things this guy says is bad is something another reviewer would probably say is good

  • So the only good things about this game are the finishing moves at the End of each bossfight. Everything else is just crap? There must be anything good about this game, gotta check another review now -.-

    IGN atleast try to state the good things, reviews stop looking objective that way.

  • @boatoflol well most of the things in this game he pointed out are true and he definitly looks like a knock off of ryu and the game is really repettive

  • Hey IGN, why don't you review a game based on its own merits, instead of endlessly comparing it to other games? When I read a review of an FPS, the reviewer doesn't spend half the review going: "this game is kind of like halo, which is kind of like half-life, which is kind of like system shock 2, which is kind of like Doom".

    I really don't care that you think that the game is kind of like god of war, or kind of like ninja gaiden, what I want to know is how the game fares on its own.

  • @BileSoup um, don't you think mentioning the comparison with GoW and ninja gaiden that ONE time was to help understand how the game feels. seriously, comparing everything with other games isn't good, unless it's to verify the game has nothing new to come with. and I for one got lots of info about the gameplay, they said the enemies were uncreative, repedative, stupid and too easy.

    what exactly did you hear?

  • Man i dont care what IGN says about this game, ive played it all the way through , i enjoyed it like hell. The only bad thing was i couldnt change the language in japanese.I'd really have liked it better in japanese with subs

  • never played it, never need to. Ninja Gaiden (the last one on original xbox) is better looking, and I guarantee better playing than this shit-show. not to mention the Ninja Gaiden 2 everyone else is talking about.... try beating those bosses with a jump and Y. PFFFF

  • @profyucub no everyone has an xbox moron....

  • I find the fact that the two games main chars, have the same name than Ryu and Ken from Street Fighter xD... maybe it's an inside joke.

  • this game should have only been released on steam being the ninja gaiden for pc gamers.

    the boss patterns are an homage to old school gaming where every boss has a pattern and you have to find it.

    the game is good but just not as good as you would want it.

    power to pc gamers but there are better xbox 360 ninja games.

    I've watched a lot of IGN reviews and almost all of them lean towards something wrong

    either too high or too low.

  • I thought the tragedy was the view when faced with BOSS...

  • I don't think the reviewer is saying it's a bad game or anything. He's saying that it seems like a repeat of Ninja Gaiden or Shinobi- which is why he disliked it.

  • i wonder what he would say if he did a review on super mario brothers......

  • This reviewer is complaining about the stupidest shit -_- Ninja Blade is awesome! its not a opinion, its a fact! "You can't spell ignorant with out IGN." 

  • this game is horrible, stupid. IGN didnt even bother to give it a score lol.

  • "Fight bosses that you've already beaten in the game for no reason wahtsoever"

    - if this was supposed to be a bad thing when DMC3 did an exact same thing which I'm currently stuck on the leveland DMC3 is praised, I would find it abit ironic, really.

  • there is no save checkpoints and there is like 3 bosses in each level ( 1 hour each)

  • Meh, doesn't look like something I would enjoy, but I'm not a hack-and-slash fan, so that's probably why.

  • I wish FROMSOFTWARE would give the makers of metal gear solid the right to TENCHU, imagine a tenchu game with the graphics and a kind of storyline to MGS

  • Thanks for the review, don't think I'll get the game as I saw it in the shop for a sale price of £7 :P

  • this game is real suck.. how can he still alive after jumping the plane without parachutes? what a big assholes

  • @testicles333 I'm pretty sure this game isn't meant to be realistic :\

  • Yup, this is what happens when you think you can try to out due ninja gaiden

  • Ninja Gaiden still best,but a had fun with this game aswell

  • tis is not god of war 

  • 2 Camels in a tiny Car

    :D

  • IGN=I'm Game Noob!

    flag this video for lie

  • IGN=I'm Game Noob!

  • is this wave 2 game?...cam syok ja ni game..x360 rock.......i like it...graphic looks good..just ignore that f#$%&* narrator ....sorry...i want this gameeeee

  • this is a good game i dont know what he is talking about. I will give him a few points on some of the stuff he is saying but overall the end experience is a good one

  • welll durh!! your fighting a parasitic mutagenic virus in the game, so of course there are going to be multiple of the same enemy, I mean the enemies may look generic but what else can you do flesh???!!! i mean really, to beat a illness you have use repition, and in this game's case beat the living shit out of everything that either moves or moans

  • bunaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    

  • man,i love this game so much! :D

  • old spice spam is all over sigh

  • if the game is medicore at best

  • hell this game is the first one I've played through in one day, playing hours for hours because it was that fuckin awesome

    to please can anyone kick that narrators ass?

  • Ok, I'm gonna go out and say it. I'm a PS3 fanboy ok?

    But to be honest, this game deserves a much better review. Theres nothing wrong with it. The game is good for the time it came out.

    You know a review is bad when a fanboy of the other console thinks the game is actually good.

  • @EnglishTurtle damn right dude.

  • @EnglishTurtle Being "Good for the time it came out" doesn't make it good... it just makes it acceptable... and that's the bottom-line of this review... This is obviously a wannabe Ninja Gaiden... I kinda trust IGN's opinions :/

  • @EnglishTurtle Haha true true

  • @EnglishTurtle Oh, wow. I'm thinking about getting it now and I'm a PS3 fanboy yet I think there are good games from XBOX360.

  • Lol. Why be a fanboy? I dont have xbox or PS3. Friend has PS3 and I love it. But I know its a fact that XBOX/PS3 games tend to look and run better on XBOX. Gears Of War, and Halo are awesome. Killzone and Uncharted are awesome. Gaming is awesome!

  • @BuckFastZombie

    Nah man, that comment was 9 months ago. I was an idiot with no life back then lol Now, I don't even care about the console war thing. Its pretty stupid. I love my PS3, but now I also feel like buying an Xbox because of Halo Reach and Gears of War. Gaming is awesome! I recommend be a "fan" of gaming in general, rather than being a "fanboy."

  • Im a hypocrit! Im a PC fanboy! lol. But, if you show someoneinto consoles how to get a PC game running, they would run away, with good reason! The PC versions of console games are getting worse, so Im gonna have to move to a console me thinks.

  • @BuckFastZombie whats complicated about it? you stick in the disc, wait 5 minutes, go to options and change the settings, then play. i spend nearly an hour in the options menus regardless of platform.

  • @EnglishTurtle its a multi platform game dude

  • @Barderoth

    No its not

  • @EnglishTurtle yes it is. look it up on wiki or ign or gamespot or gamestop or whatever.

  • @Barderoth

    There's a PC port, but not a PS3 version

  • IGN confuse me, they either completely RIP into a game or massively big it up like it's the second coming of Billy mays.

    We know you're biased but come on, this is a joke.

  • @GrandLionMan if its an exclusive or a well known publisher like EA they seem to LOOOOVE it too.. load of shite. id rather watcha rookie reviewer or just watch gameplay.. usually i watch ign reviews with the sound off just to see gameplay and make a decision myself ;) haha

  • am i the only one who notices how incredibly detailed the city scape is??? i mean holy shit!

  • this guy is a tad crazy I think, yeah the creatures were annoyingly similar but like the game was not easy. took me like 50 minutes to finish the last level and I'm not a shit gamer and obviously not the best but this was a really good game to play and the graphics were pretty good as for as I'm concerned

  • vídeo bom demonstra muito o potencial do game ninja blade é um excelente game.

  • the reviewer most be a noob!

  • The game is awsome. IGN is what sucks here.

  • IGN tries to ruin this game;it's pretty awsome game, if you are fan of Devil may cry series , u gonna definetly like it. this whole review is to ruin NINJA BLADE

  • loved NB very fun and the only ppl that say it sucks are the the ppl that never played it

  • guys this game looks like a complete rip off of ninja gaiden. so you might as well pick up ninja gaiden causse it kicks ass

  • I only watch IGN reveiws for the gameplay because they talk complete bullshit most of the time

  • wtf ign just came out and atacked this game this game is the shit last time im ganna come to them before i buy a new game

  • @fresquez8 You're kidding, right? This game is completely average.

  • the reviewer did say , some weapon are pointless... holy shit. the weapon's variety is great. one of the best for this genre. you must think and use the given weapon wisely. the reviewer said, u can use the same special attack to beat all monster. no you can't do that, unless the reviewer is a sissy who's too scared to beat the game in even normal difficulty. all what's mention in the video are jokes. the worst review ever.

  • first, this game is awesome. the reviewer said that the game was easy, it's not, unless this sissy reviewer play it on easy difficulty.

    second. the bossfight are awesome better and less tedious than ninja gaiden. with super finishing move.

    the environment is not that repetitive. you'll venture through different areas, such as highway and fantastic hotel interior later in the game.

  • wow xDD I didn't know this game exsisted and im shocked to see IGN bash a 360 game? and look below and soonly above me, All the 360 fanboys crying over their exclusive falling flat (If this is on ps3 too, feel free to call me a ps3 fanboy, If not... Then I'm happy)

  • lol the gameplay is just like god of war 3 and you all no im telling the truth

  • i hate it, firstly, they made the coolest weapons in game (the falcon knives) the most useless pieces of shits ever, i think attack the enemies with a stick would be more effective, secondly, why in THE FLYING FUCK, WOULD THE PEOPLE JUST SUDDENLY TALK JAPANESE WHEN THEY WERE SPEAKING ENGLISH 2 SECONDS AGO, finally, the boss fights are long, tediously long so fuck this game, i regret spending my money on it and no one on ebay wants it

  • Fuck this review!!!! LOVED the demo!

  • you cant spell ignorance without IGN

  • @Canaris3 you more right than anyone my friend.

    you can't spell ignorance without IGN.

    you're the man.

  • @Canaris3 lol

  • what fuck shit is this? this is no ninja blade

  • fuck you ass sucking cunt dooche this game rocks

  • i think this game is better then ninja guiden <.o

  • 1:18

    theres a lvl were u fight bosses over again.hmmm,sounds like a good idea,i mean,legend of zelda uses it a lot,so does bayonetta.yet they're great games with 9 or higher.interesting...

  • bullshit! review...try! it...and this is not that bad...most of his negative view are lame.

  • Well, if you find the game's easy you can play the top difficulty mode.

    For me it's not that bad, I mean, ok, it's not an open world, you follow closed scenarios but what do you expect? this is a hack & slash game, I think it deserves a try.

  • ENDLESS FLOWER FTW

  • Ninja Gaiden was suck. too hard to even be fun. I thought this was much more enjoyable and actually better overall.

  • @nuenjins It was hard for you. Games must be hard. What is the point in the game when you can complete it with closed eyes?

  • i have the its great and im glad i payed full prieced

  • Japanese Arcade Boss Masher, Fun fun, brings Back Memories, shame the Reviewer is blind and just judgemental -_-

  • @yzakbuster

    L2 look up how to kill bosses don't bitch if its only a lack of ninja game skill

  • this is comment is directed at ign what does it matter if its awesome and its a ninja game what do you want other then killing giant ugly monsters in pretty ways with ninja awsomeness

  • Comment removed

  • yzakbuster, yes I think you are making foolish comments. Try google --> search ninja blade difficulty setting

    Anyone would be pissed off if you said something about a game that isn't true.

  • yzakbuster

    unfortunately this game makes me so stressful because there is no difficulty mode setting..

    You really are a god damn idiot aren't u? LOL. Anyone who has played this game can tell you right away that there is a difficulty setting in the system options.

    "no it hasn't" lol ESL lvl 2. damn! I'm laughing so hard.

    You know if you want, I can take a screen shot of the difficulty setting for you, just to make you look more stupid.

  • wtf u talking about? There is difficulty mode setting. It's in the system options:

    foolproof, easy, normal, hard, impossible...

    The graphics aren't spectacular either, they re-use so many enemy models & add tiny bit extras to them to make them look different when they're not. It's evident in this video.

    Eventhough this game is boring as hell, u should not mislead people with wrong info.

  • @cryptblood1986

    don't be a dick to the retard with no skill at platform games and so what if they reuse enemy models and your a hypocrite cause the game isn't boring... ITS A FUKIN NINJA GAME WHAT DO YOU PEAPLE WANT FROM IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    it has awsome visuals i guess you could say that it plays like ninja gaidin mixed with god of wars interactive cutscenes but really is that a bad thing cuz if it is then why the hell aren't you bitching about those two games too

  • lol. So in Ninja Gaiden we have Ryu. Then these guys come along and give us a ninja named Ken. Ryu/Ken; real fucking clever!

    There is no way I could take this game seriously when it is such a blatent Ninja Gaiden ripoff.

  • Lmao! xD

  • Wait a minute, are you saying they stole ideas off STREET FIGHTER as well?

    Damn these developers are like Carlos Mencia. lol!
