So I started playing Ninja Gaiden Black today..

Heard a bunch of hype about this game, with some people saying it's even better than DMC3. And to them, I say lol.

The controls in NG work, but they're way too slippery.

And the camera is probably one of the worst I've seen in an action game this past gen. It's really really bad.

I want to like this game, but it's just bugging me too much. I don't get the love some people have for it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Twice. The game is a bit unfairly hard sometimes. They should have let the player have the easy mode option without needing to unlock it. That was stupid.

But that isn't why the game stinks. It's the sloppy controls and horrible camera.

How ya doing, buddy?

I like how every time someone has a different opinion than you on IRC or on forums, you say either a) "YEAH I LIKE HOW -insert opposite opinion here-, b) say something ridiculous and then repeat it every time the person replies to you, c) both of the above, or d) call them a complete fucking idiot.

You ROCK.

It's a good thing nobody made a thread like that. That'd be stupid.

I bet you win every argument.

As for me, I liked dmc3 better but I enjoy NG becuase its really fast paced with no slowdown and sometimes you can accidently pull off major attacks without even knowing it. Both of them have their ups ^_^

I don't believe I ever said I expected it to be like another game.

As far as the combat system goes, NG is definitely deeper than DMC3, but that doesn't make it more -fun-. I agree with one of the people above though: GoW is the more fun game over both of those.

By the way though, I wasn't really comparing DMC3 to Ninja Gaiden in my original post. But I've heard from countless "fans" of it that NINJA GAIDEN IS THE BEST GAME EVAR AND DMC3 FUCKIN' SUCKS. So when I finally got to play this for a while, I couldn't understand thinking that.

Also, I stuck up for this game a couple times in the past, only playing like the -very- beginning. I didn't notice any of the problems. But now that I tried playing all the way through black, I did.

But to each their own. :P

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
