Ninja Gaiden II
Have just completed this and thought it was superb. I think the deep combat mechanics are the best I’ve ever seen, its very easy to control but hard to master, with a wealth of options at your disposal. The graphics and animation are superb. The story world is idiosyncratic as you would expect from Team Ninja, but well executed. There are two drawbacks â€" the linear level design, and the sometimes frustrating camera angles. However, I disagree with the reviewer saying it caused many deaths, I didn’t find that at all. The difficultly level is high though. I would highly recommend this, it’s one of the most under-rated action games of this generation, along with ‘Strangehold’.
