Shinobi legion is definitly not a bad a game. Its like a 7.5/10 for me mainly due to the graphics. I dont like the digitise character, and there are way to many repitive enemy types.

As for the platforming and fighting its perfect...just as good as shinobi revenge on the genny. :mrgreen:

It's awesome. I don't understand the hate that game gets. The gameplay is 100% solid. I'm not big on the digitized graphics, but that's pretty much my only complaint. A lot of people cite the cheesy live-action cutscenes as a low point, but they're fucking hilarious. Hard to see them as anything but a major positive for me.

If you can find it Gamerforlife, I'd say just pick up the Hitman Trilogy. I know it came out on PC and PS2.

I know there are more, but my mind is drawing a blank. The only thing I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is I-Ninja.

I think Shinobi Legions gets a bad rap for not being Shinobi III. The game is great, but Shinobi III was much better, so it looks bad in comparison. Also, having the look and feel of Mortal Kombat after such beautiful hand drawn graphics didn't really help.

I love Shinobi Legions. It's one of my favorite games for the Saturn. I LOOOVVVE the cutscenes between levels. It brings me back to the direct-to-VHS kung-fu movies of the 80s. And it's a very fun Shinobi game.

That's the European name, Ninja Five-0 in the US. And yes it's great and pricey.
I know the game is called Ninja Five-O in the states. It's just that I hate that name so goddamn much.

I agree with all of this. That game is simply awesome, and I laugh every time I beat a level and watch one of those movies.

Ninja Blade for the 360 was pretty cool.

I think they're both pretty poor names actually. But pardon me while I go watch some Hawaii Cop. :lol:

Just beware if you don't like QTEs.
