Is Red Dead Revolver worth buying (over say TOCA2 or Ninja Gaiden)? I don't have access to imports or "backups" like some folks on here!

Hard to answer that one really as they are 3 totally different styles of game....

RD-Revolver does make a refreshing change though and contains some nice original touches...

Agreed, some nice touches and a different style to most other games out at the mo, but I'd buy Toca2 over RDR . . . or Ninja Gaiden if you think you're hard enough NG is way too hard IMO, but you can't resist having another go

Exactly how hard is NG? Is it like Medal of honour where if you die you have to go and reply an hours worth of game, or can you save the game say just before a big boss, then just keep re-trying?

Had a quick go on it at the weekend and it played well, running up walls etc.

LOL you bunch of fairies

Ninja Gaiden is a challenge, but I think it's aimed at yesteryears gamers who are bored with all the lame finish them in an evening or two games. Makes a nice change to have a bit of a challenge for once.

I played it at the weekend for a bit and got onto chapter 4 or 5. Saving it mostly for weekends rather than storming through like I normally do

Great fun

Bit of a cross between Devil May Cry and Onimusha...both which were too easy and too short

DW, there are strategic save points through the levels so you don't have to replay that much. Although apparantly, near the end you have to fight two or three bosses in a row without being able to save

I'm near the end of level 6 boss and it is very hard! Controller has been thrown across the room a number of times! 7 ninja to beat plus various gaurds, then 3 dragons before the boss with his tenticles!

i will do it though!!

The cut scenes at the end of levels are fantastic though! amazing gfx!
