Ninja Gaiden Thread

Okay found this on gamefaqs so take with a grain of salt about Hayashi and NG3 Sigma content for PS3 and 360:

 

[CyberEvil]

Except of those listed, only Kasumi, Hayate, and Shiden actually use Mugen Tenshin. If you're gonna name drop, let's go all in, OK?

Gill, that's an older quote from Hayashi that's been cited a few places. It's also a typical non-answer spoken in PR-ese.

 

[Brute]

So you saying Shiden, Genra & Raidou should also be on NG3 as well? Hmmmmm.......interesting

No, that's not what I'm saying.

I thought Ayane's Hajin style or whatever was still considered part of Mugen Tenshin, just with some different focuses (like different schools of Karate).

 

[CyberEvil]

You'd be right. Mugen Tenshin is sort of the clan, really. But it's separated into two sects, Hajinmon and Tenjinmon. The styles are different by quite a bit, which is why I said they were different. Most people mean Tenjinmon when they say Mugen Tenshin without realizing it, but I guess it'd be fair to say they were all part of the same clan. I'm just nitpick-y like that.

Kasumi is available now, I want impressions. >.>

Arrrgh! Ninja Gaiden 3 came out AFTER SIGMA 2! Ayane was briefly in there, but CPU Momiji was there for an ENTIRE MISSION! Time constraints so be it! This is technically the third time 360 owners get shafted! ARRRRRRGH!

Back to my MaxDrago tactics on Twitter!

Found a Kasumi playthrough: http://www.twitch.tv/x4ryuusei/b/351116471

Kasumi Day 1

Kasumi Day 2-2 (Ayane's level)

I'll do some challenges with her once I've leveled up some of her skills.

 

[Gill Hustle]

Does anyone still have this for 360?

I just started going through the trials (after I beat story mode never touched the game) and wondering if anyone wants to do co-op/multiplayer.

I know the game isn't great but fun to me at least on some level, and figure thee are some FSD members that would play.

 

[CyberEvil]

I immediately sold it after seeing the pricing structure for the new weapons. Good luck finding anyone decent still playing. Also, some of the missions are damn near impossible with lag and they are impossible alone. Very poor design. So...have fun, I suppose.

I found NGS for PS3 used in a local store and bought it. Any advice to deal with the suitted guy when using Rachel. It's the following level to the giant dead dinosaur.

 

[CyberEvil]

Do you mean Gamov? Green suit? It's been a long time since I played so I don't remember the level progression. If that's who you mean, stay in his face, never block more than a single attack in succession or you'll be guard broken, remember to combat roll INTO him to gain frame advantage over him for a follow up, and you can counter some of his attacks (and should). Other than that, it's basically just hit and run. Even on high difficulty the fight shouldn't last longer than a couple of minutes.

 

[Brute]

Gamov's not too hard, but he is annoying due to the fact that your Rachel.

I hate that woman...

 

[CyberEvil]

She's limited by her slow ass strings, yeah. The fight isn't too hard though, even with her. Most people just make the mistake of thinking they need to get away from him or block a lot. Then he'll smack you around.

 

[X51]

Ok, I was just trying to avoid his "guard breakers" but if I can dodge after the first hit blocked that's what I'm about to try... Unless I see someone for a DOA online

Thanks for the advices. As you can see I suck but that doesn't mean that I actually enjoy getting trolled by the A.I. xD

Ryu can easly take care of that punk ass Gamov because he has speed, strength, magic powers, tons of weapons & hes a super ninja but Rachel, she is too weak to fight against that Dante wanna be and according to what CyberEvil said, she's limited by her slow ass strings which is why she has trouble surviving. Shit....that ballerina dodge she does all the time couldn't save her.

 

[CyberEvil]

Well her dodge is actually very good, but only if you use it to dodge into the opponent. This will generally cause her to flip over the enemy and give her a solid amount of frame advantage to score some attacks. If the enemy looks like it's reacting to the hits, you can generally finish the whole string for a knockdown. If not...Rachel is about to get that ass spanked.

 

[Chaos]

True, her ballerina dodge is very useful and she use the hammer better than Ryu. Speaking of Ninja Gaiden Im going back into playing NGS again so I can finish completing the whole game.

I guess. I only really used the War Hammer with Ryu on rare occasions where the Dabilharo was unavailable.
