Ninja Gaiden II

Well, thats path of the warrior finished as well. Strangely easy. Path of the mentor is a bitch though, looks to be part of the difficulty change is a reshifting of the enemies. I.e rockets and machine gun wielding soldiers on the first level. Three outfits to choose from as well, standard black armour, blood red and a bizarre gold and green pattern. Kinda cool though.
 
I love anything Ninja related so I've been playing both 1 and 2 alot and I'm know in my second play through NG2. It is very challenging but once you know how to strike dodge and counter well, it's all worth the effort. Especially when you get to use all your goodies through the entire game when you start a new game. I love the lunar staff but against bosses I stick to my Eclipse Scythe! The Falcon Talons are sweet aswell and very good against rival ninjas. Who loved that metalic fish boss!?
 
Path of the mentor began the other day, woe is me! To say it is challenging is an understatement, come the first boss I was swatted like so much as an annoying fly. Relentless is not a good enough word to describe it!
 
I remember how tough Ninja Gaiden was. Thing was, I had fair warning too. I got it well after its release date and went off reviews that said stuff like "this game will kick your ass!"

Well, I thought: "It can't be THAT bad..."
