Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword (DS)

Anyone else played it yet? It is great fun so far (
1.5 hours in).

Only complaints would be that it is pretty easy so far. It's the best looking game on DS so far.

How are the controls? I was considering getting it.

How far?

Controls work excellent. Very smooth and reactive to the stylus. I feel like i'm slashing and stabbing people lol.

I hear it is short though 5-6 hours. That is all I really need for hand held. Plus it has unlockable difficulty levels.

I was gonna buy it, but then I got a Wii... w/ 4 games...

I love the graphics. Gorgeous prerendered background with 3d characters. Brings back memories of FF7. I wish they would go back to that for FF rpg. Why bother with full 3d, if interaction with all of the environment isn't really required. Anyhow, the controls are great and gameplay is really fun. I'm only about 1/2 hour into it right now.

Please edit that before Jack Thompson sues somebody.

I'll probably pick it up soon.

I played the demo on one of those download stations and it was pretty fun, I loved the game, the controls were pretty smooth and the graphics were outstanding (even by non-handheld standards), I'm definitely getting the full game when I get the chance.

I really like the controls and the DS layout. holding it sideways is much more comfortable for me. Fun game so far. The only thing I didn't like was the use of the microphone. It's not frequent at all, but it makes it hard to stealth play at work.

looks like I'm really going to have to get a DS eventually

Anyone still playing this? I got about 2 hours into it and haven't touched it in weeks. Just wondering if it is worth my while to try to complete, or if I should just trade it in.

Protip: rub the mic with your fingertip.
