Ninja Gaiden 3 razor's edge vs Ninja Blade.

[Terrorize Exercise]

Which is better, haven't played either.

Blade…

NG3 razor's edge no contest.
Ninja blade is pretty bad. A boring classic 360 action gaming trying to be ninja gaiden but with no impact, feeling nor the essence of what it's trying to be. Razor's edge can be criticised as it is, but it's still a decent game.

Ninja Gaiden 3 was a boring 360 action game... a complete pile of cack. Razor's Edge is little more than a polished & plated turd... that is STILL utterly foul and rancid to the core.

Ninja Blade while bad was nowhere NEAR as bad as either of them

Ninja Blade is more a QTE spectacle than a game.
Not comparable

Cool but we’re talking about Razor’s edge which still is a fun game, not vanilla 3. Now Ninja Blade is not a good game at all, unless you truly enjoy boring QTE I guess

NG3RE by FAR. Not even a competition.

[Madder Red]

NG3RE and its not even close. Though it has some rather questionable stuff like qtes but the overall gameplay in terms of fighting is imo the peak of the series

Ehh. Considering RE is designed solely around abusing steel on bone, and playing super aggressive screws you because the cpu always has damage advantage over you if you and he get hit at the same time.. I very much disagee.
1 is the best overall game imo, 2 has the most fluid visceral combat. 3 is just... 3 😄
It exists

The same could be said about 2 in terms of UT, FS and 360 Scythe. But 1 is the most complete package overall, that is true. I prefer 3RE because they removed the essence spam, leading to the player actually having to utilise his moveset but then again, thats just my personal preference

[Gameo]

Well Ive beaten 1 and 2 without barely using UT at all, 2 is a game of cut and OT mostly.
I beat 3 on ultimate ninja without abusing steel on bone but it was one long rage induced session from the absurdity of bs involved with damage priority nonsense and ended up feeling like luck 90% of the time.
Ill never do that again heh.
But even the worst ninja gaiden game is better than the vast majority of other stuff out there. Theyre all a lot of fun. Except 3 on UN, it feels like bs regardless

Thats the spirit and i couldnt agree more. They are miles above your average action game and can & should be enjoyed for what they are.
Sidenote: Impressive feat beating 3 with SoB abuse, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. That is something i personally wouldnt subject myself to. Maybe 20 years ago but today? Nah. So you sir, have my respect.

[Gameo]

Thanks man.
And also, we dont talk about yaiba tho it dont count 🤫

It really doesnt lol

I prefer Ninja Gaiden 3 RE over Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2.

1.No underwater swimming

2.Better camera and you have a manual lock on system

3.Bow is more fun to use.(in 1 it is very clunky to use the first person aiming in helicopter bossfight battle)
Having unlimited amount of bows is also better than having a limited number.

4.I like the story more in NG3. NG1 and 2's stories feel worse.(That whole Murai plot twist made no sense. NG 1's story also never explains who that woman was that got killed even though she is probably an important person for Ryu.)

5.You have checkpoint before bossfight battles. In 1 you don't have any and if you die you have to restart from a save station. That adds annoyance to that game in a bad way.(Especially one of the final bossfight that forces you to climb the stairs every time before facing the boss.)

6.secondary playable characters are better fleshed out in 3RE compared to 1 and 2 because you can upgrade them and you can play the whole game as them.(Even though they still feel inferior to Ryu due to having only 1 weapon)

7.Having no healing items is better imo because that forces you to actually learn how to play the game instead of skipping the fights.

I also loved using steel on bone move.

Edit: also it was cool seeing Hayabusa village without it burning down.
