    I think the hype was humbled a little bit when the demo came out...now people are just ready to get the game.

    Honestly, I think this will be a good game but I expect to see gamers disapointed with all of the hype this game has gotten.

    Personally, I don't think so...of course, there will be *some* people disappointed, because not all people are zombies, however, this is the first game of it's kind that I'm actually really pumped up about getting... XBL compatible or not (not, in this case)...and it still doesn't change any decision for me to buy it. If anything, the demo is what got me pumped up about the game...the hype only got me curious.

    based on the demo I would say it definitely lives up to the hype. We all knew the graphics would be great, and they are. They look like prerendered CG. But what I didn't expect was the super fast, super smooth gameplay. A game like this makes it look like the xbox can do anything. A cut above other xbox games.

    Again my only major complaint will come from the same thing I complain about other games. *LENGTH* Many of todays funnest and best games are just to dam short. Expect Ng to be the same way.

    I think it was a little overhyped. Im sure it will be a great game just not as phenominal as a lot of people expected. But then again this is my opinion and im not to big on the Ninja thing. Im still picking it up though. Even though it didnt quite live up to the hype for me from what i saw in the demo its nothing as overhyped as Brute Force.

    BTW: I think Brevity should be be given the Most Disturbing Sig award... if i had just ate i would have spewed all over my keyboard.

    The demo just made me want to play the FULL game even more -- spectacular visuals, fast and fluid gameplay, and much, much more. And every previous Ninja Gaiden title is being included as unlockable goodness. I can hardly wait to get my Ninja on!

    Personally, I can hardly put the demo down. I finally beat the boss on the hardest mode...just barely

    It's so true i mean wouldnt it be nice to have a game thats as long as our wait im not saying more than 2 months but give me six hard weeks to beat a game let me feel that my 50 bucks without taxs ment something more..... Halo was great for this reason it took me i say about month and a week,Splinter cell as well. i dont want a game to feel like hard to come by easy to beat

    i am so glad that i cancelled my order last week,because i don't deserve to buy crappy games ,besides people don't deserve to pay $50 on game that has some crappy gameplay like brute force and i don't give a crap if a game looks so great,graphics don't make a game,but the gameplay does .

    Personally, I love the gameplay of the Ninja Gaiden demo...it took a while to get used to...but, who in the hell wants to master a game in the first 5 minutes?
