Hands-On: Ninja Gaiden 3

Fri 10th Jun 2011, by | E3_2011





The latest in a series that has made many gamers insane with it's ridiculous difficulty.

Ninja Gaiden 3 was playable all over the show floor at E3. So far, it looks like typical Ninja Gaiden fare which is a very good thing. Main protagonist Ryu Hayabusa still retains an arsenal of insane attacks with wildly dynamic animations. Enemies in the demo ranged from human soldiers to giant mechanized, insect-like tanks.



In true form, Ninja Gaiden 3 still moves at an exceptionally smooth 60 frames per second which is an impressive feat considering how fast and dynamic the animations are. The playable demo was set in a dark and rainy city street and navigating through the city was done by acrobatic, Parkour style stunts like flips, wall runs and wall jumps.

Stunning looking fire, blood and particle effects are also strewn throughout the game especially when Ryu charges up his sword for a heavy attack. It's looking great and it's feeling just as difficult as any Ninja Gaiden title.
