The Ninja Way
Ninja Gaiden is just chock full of, how do you say, real ultimate power. I mean, sure, the gameplay is great (punishing, but great). The visual style is incredible. But what really makes the game is the clear, over-the-top sense of the kind of crazy shit ninjas would be doing.
Case in point: near the end of the third level, there's a ladder that leads outside of the airship. When you try to climb the ladder, it takes you all the way up to the hatch, which you discover is locked. There's a clearly obvious sidechannel about halfway up the ladder, but can you get to it by going only halfway up the ladder and stepping off?
Oh NO young grasshopper.
That's what doing three consecutive backflips off the sides of the walls is for. 10:26:44 AM ()
