I'm a ninja gaiden fan. I've bought almost every edition of each game. Ninja Gaiden is known for its fast pace combat, deep combos, and stressful difficulty. Lets cut to the chase. Ninja Gaiden 3 is bad. Like, Really bad. You don't feel like much of a ninja. -The Bad- -Ryu Hayabusa is made to be heartless. In the first sequence of the game, you cut down a soldier who pleads and begs for his life. The soldier even goes out of his way to tell you about his family and that he didnt want the job. After all that, the game forces you to cut the dude in half. - Story is lackluster and the Main Boss is a half wit. - When controlling Ryu you barley feel like you are in command of a ninja. He slashes wildly and mostly misses his targets no matter how you aim -Multiplayer is skill based. Not skill based as in if you are good you win, More towards if you've purchased extras you win. And if you've played a lot you'll win. Your ninja starts epicly barebones which makes it a uphill grind to get on to some kind of level playing field. -No other items. (this is addressed with DLC though). Ryu has nothing to gather, nothing to make him evolve the game stays pretty stagnant the entire way through. You never feel stronger. -Playing on higher difficulty just increases the number of enemies. On level one i sat for like 10 minuets in one arena fighting TONS of guys that just kept pouring in. Its daunting but not more difficult. -The GOOD- - It's nice to see Ryu again - Graphics aren't bad and seem to be a step in the right direction -Multiplayer Co-op is welcomed, Misery always enjoys company -Verdict- In the end, if you're a Gaiden fan, you'll have to try it. But trust the millions of reviews from big time reviewers like IGN and GameTrailers. They aren't being mean when they rate it so low. It's just not a good game.Read full review
This game is very cool, but prepare for difficult encounters with almost impossible scenarios with the enemies in the game. Cool story, nice visuals fun to play but also very tiring since it requires a butt-load of button smashing. I would have given the game a five out five but due to problems like a camera that doesn't like to move a dumbed down fighting system, and super insane difficult scenarios. It fails to reach the five out five mark. Still worth picking up though.
Glad I found it for my Xbox One X I use to play this game like crazy it’s not playing right now for some reason but hopefully with an update it’ll be back on the backward compatibility.

I was kinda of skeptical about this game, because of all the bad reviews it got. I've played all the Ninja Gaiden games and conquered them all, so you can say I'm a big fan of Ninja Gaiden. This game had some really awesome visuals and game play. I do miss the upgrading weapons and all the body limbs coming off, when battling your opponents. Over all, I enjoyed this game very much and didn't mind the changes Team Ninja did to this game. I give Ninja Gaiden 3 Four Stars out of Five.
Love this game as an introduction to the Ninja Gaiden series of games.
