What players say
Beautiful visuals, typical ninja gaiden combat. My issue is the game has random buggy moments where you can't walk across a small dent in the ground....swimming controls are also horrific....

you can turn off blood and gore. This is the most responsive, fastest paced hacknslash game I've come across. I recommend for fans of the genre
I genuinely think I'd prefer drink bleach than to EVER play through this game again. My god, it sucked and dragged on forever.
