Team Ninja has made what has been one of the best games on the XBox even better. As impossible as that sounds, it's true. But, if you've never played Ninja Gaiden before, this may not be the game for you. It CAN be frustrating. I just beat Ninja Gaiden Black on the Hard level and let me tell you, it was aggravating but oh so sweet to have beat it on hard.

If you've played the original Ninja Gaiden for XBox, this includes the Hurricane Packs plus a new mission mode that is tough as nails! However, gone are the three NES games. They have been replaced with the original arcade version of Ninja Gaiden, so if you want to keep playing the 3 NES games, you'd better hold onto your original copy of Ninja Gaiden. Still, for the reduced price NJB comes at, it's worth having both!

Ninja Gaiden is NOT a game for everyone. If you are easily frustrated by games that dump loads of enemies on you that are tough to defeat, I suggest you look elsewhere. But, if you enjoy challenges with some of the most awesome boss characters ever to grace your TV screen, fast and furious action, and an arsenal of weapons that would make any ninja shed a tear of joy, then it's time to get your ninja skills in check and play NJB.

First off, the graphics - 5/5
The animation is top notch. I have never seen characters move so fluidly like they do in Ninja Gaiden. Ryu and the enemies move almost so realistically, it's scary. Ryu's ninja suite even has fabric that sways as you walk and moves with the wind. This hasn't changed since the previous version but it's STILL excellent. There is not a single frame rate studder in here, and when you see the huge dino-skeleton boss, you won't believe that they were able to pull this off with no frame rate slow down.

Sound - 5/5
Breathtaking!

Ever since Team Ninja's mercurial Tomonobu Ithagaki stated that Ninja Gaiden would be the greatest and most challenging action game ever, his remarks were often scoffed as a desperate attempt to garner a few pages of publicity. However, once Ninja Gaiden was unleashed on the unsuspecting public, only one question keeps popping up - "Just how in God's name has Tecmo come up with this blinder ? Seriously, I wanna know !"

The answer lies somewhere in between. Team Ninja boasts frightening talent and has created fanatically popular action titles. They've had some pretty average stuff like DOA:Beach Volleyball so speculation was expected. But Ninja Gaiden was not some average franchise.If ever the classic 2D game was to be revitalised, it had to be done so in all its 3D visual glory, coupled with never before seen action. At the helm of this impossible hope was Ithagaki. In the course of developing the game, he had only one command. 'Quality'.

And quality it certainly was. Ninja Gaiden, simply put, is the most visceral, frenetic and challenging action game made to date. Coupled with spectacular graphics and an eclectic soundtrack, gamers around the world just couldn't get enough of Ryu Hayabusa. But Tecmo didn't create a game that was accessible to all. Hell no. If you are a casual gamer, you'll get roasted. The AI of your adversaries is spectacular, to say the least. Even at Normal mode, Ninja Gaiden makes sure that you put in your best effort to earn those well deserved rewards. Nothing is easy. Team Ninja took great risk in making the game overtly challenging. Despite the high production values that force most studios to play safe, they held to their principle of forcing the player to fight every inch of the way.

Often called the "greatest action game ever," and not without reason, "Ninja Gaiden" on XBOX took all the classic action/platform standards of the 3rd-person 3D hack-and-slash and raised them to the nth level of perfection - and then raised the difficulty to near-ridiculous. The result was an incredibly beautiful game for the elite...lol. Unless you either had skills or were prepared to earn them, you were likely to get no further than the infamous Level 5 Incendiary Shuriken-hurling Black Ninjas.

Well guess what - now "Ninja Gaiden Black" is here, the last-minute XBOX remix that includes all the stuff that the developers weren't able to work in for the original release date, which was subsequently issued in "Hurricane Packs" on XBOX Live. Foremost among the immediately noticable improvements is the ability to toggle your right-thumbstick cam between the (basically stupid and useless) 1st-person frozen mode of the original game, and the more typical and much more handy 3rd-person free-rotating cam that lets you look all around Ryu as you move. When you're negotiating timed light-pathways with giant swinging pendulums flying at you, or lining up a series of tricky jumps in a cave, it's nice to be able to see where you're going. Another change from the original within the main game is the fact that you now get the Lunar in Hyabusa Villiage the first time around, which is pretty decent considering that the next comparable weapon you'd normally get would be the Dabilahro many Scarabs later.

But what will make a lot of people happy is that there are now 5 levels of difficulty, so if you get killed enough times to demonstrate that you can't handle yourself, you'll have the degrading option of playing as "Ninja Dog," which is easier but still by no means a cake-walk.
