@muppen If you enjoyed NG2 I would suggest you skip NG3 completely, don't even buy a used copy of it! It's really really bad compared to the previous instalments in the franchise.As for the multiplayer it could have been amazing if done right actually, the components for a great ninja gaiden multiplayer experience have been there since the first game came out on the original xbox. Remember fighting the Ryu clone in NG/NGB/NGSigma? It has all of Ryu's moves and attacks and it still feels really balanced! Add some network code and replace the clone with another player and you have fully functional one-on-one multiplayer experience that still is in align with the ninja gaiden playstyle.

I've literally spent hundreds of hours on this franchise and I've loved every second of it, but Ninja Gaiden 3 was absolutely atrocious!Me and a friend of mine managed to force ourselves through the damn thing with heavy drinking and chanting "drink to forget!"
