How tough is Ninja Gaiden???
I just recently bought a Xbox and I put Ninja Gaiden on my X-Mas list. I was a big fan of the game back in the days of the NES(the good ole days). I hear people say the game is very difficult. Is it more difficult than the NES ones or right on par with those? I just don't want to get a game that will make me cuss and break my controllers...well I cuss with everygame so disregard that 
. What are your thoughts??

It's great fun, but it's not for button mashers. You have to learn the moves in order to beat the bosses. I got about half-way through and then realized that mashing the controller and hoping for combos wasn't going to work. It's a near perfect game, though. The story/graphics....everything are brilliant.

I just got this game a couple of days ago. Yes, it is tough, but you'll learn. And when you do it is so satisfying. You really need to get this game if you have an Xbox.

First time around it was crazy hard....the second time it was easy. You just need to know how to block and all the combo moves. Now the hurricane packs is a different story.

It's tough, but enjoyable. The best way to approach it is to take your time and always play on the side of caution, never going for that extra hit or attack because YOU WILL DIE, MANY TIMES.
Overall a Great game though.

I thought I remembered reading that one of the hurricane packs changed the camera so that the right thumb stick moves it around, instead of going into first person? Is there some hidden setting to enable it somewhere?
