Ninja Gaiden Sigma Review for PlayStation 3
This is a remake of an old Xbox game, a beat-’em-up adventure that was so teethgnashingly, heart-breakingly tough it could make John Rambo weep like a starving baby. Hmm, you’re probably thinking, that’s nothing to get excited about on PS3. But you’d be oh so wrong. It may be largely based on a last-gen game and harder than Posh Spice’s biceps, but Ninja Gaiden Sigma is one of PS3’s finest, and to play it is to love it like a masochist loves stilettos.
The plot, for what it’s worth, revolves around the Dark Dragon Blade. When this legendary weapon is stolen by the evil Vigoor empire it’s up to Ryu Hayabusa, a ninja from an ancient line of warriors, to retrieve it. Sounds a bit meh doesn’t it? But where many games live and die by their storyline, here it doesn’t matter one teensy little bit – all that counts is you get to be a ninja and you get to kick, punch, slash and bash the hell out of an endless supply of bad guys ripe for the punishing.
Before you bring the pain, however, you’ll have to become familiar with the more defensive side of vengeance-seeking ninjary.
