(Hapygourious) Reposted from the Dead or Alive Video that applies to this video aswell for some select few. From weenop: "Also, regarding concerns pertaining to the use of a certain word at several points in the video, I would like to clarify for new viewers that I, weenop of Brain Alert! (the guy who made the video), am a black man of mixed ethnicity." thanks for readinbg :)

''At first it was easier,but when the testers said ''this is too difficult', I made it even more difficult.'' -Itagaki

As a player who has achieved beating Master Ninja in all 3. “Ninja Gaiden isn’t meant to be played. It’s meant to be beaten” is the best way to describe NG.

>i love this game >this is so great 10 minutes later >i hate it here >this is so fucked >bullshit >bats from chests >fuck this >fuck rpgs >fuck arrows >bullshit 3 hours later >yeah i gotta say this game is perfect and i love it this has been the best essay review i have seen on this entire shitass platform i want more

Ninja Gaiden II’s enemies took the phrase “death before dishonor” to the extreme.

The staircase fight made me think of the movie 300 and the fact the original hardware can’t handle it and makes it go slo-mo like the movie is just…10/10 😂

Part 1: Excited to talk about this amazing game, here’s some background. Part 2: JESUS CHRIST SO MANY ENEMIES WTF WHY WOULD ANYONE MAKE A GAME LIKE THIS AND WHO WOULD HATE THEMSELVES ENOUGH TO PLAY IT?? Part 3: 10/10 game’s a masterpiece.

First Ninja Gaiden vid with "Nigga" in the script 😂

Your style and sense of humor remind me of the legendary "Metal Gear Solid 4 Was a Mistake" video, which is definitely a huge plus in my book. You've earned another sub.

Glorious review. Hope Ninja Gaiden makes a comeback

You need to swear more, I watch these videos with my dad.

I recently bought Master Collection to replay ng2 after like 10 years and finally having a chance to play the first one and 3RE (unfortunately never had an xbox so i never experienced the vanilla 1&2) and just discovered this channel...Man i cant explain how good your videos are. You literally put your soul in these 8 hours long series, so rare to see a player talking with such passion about these action games, that are often so underestimated (besides games like GoW but we all know that is REALLY different stuff). Thak you so much to remember me why, despite all the nonsense and enormous issues, i 've been loving ng2 like a sibling since i was 11. Cant wait for the 3rd masterpiece of a video!

I watched both videos entirely, its amazing to see more people showing this franchise some love even after all this time. Finishing Master Ninja mode with every single encounter and collectible in both Black and Sigma will forever go down as one of my proudest gaming achievements. Fantastic reviews 🙏🙏

3:11:22 he censored the FEET oh my god thats actually fucking funny

Team Ninja has never been the same since the 2000s. Hood Fucking Classic.

We can only hope for NG4 some day….

Also that Staircase. Absolutely divine. The slomo slaughter is a core memory for me

You're one of the best game reviewers on KZfaq, keep it up man. I came for the DOA video, and now im staying for everything you put out.

This video gave me the motivation to complete sigma 2 and play OG Ninja Gaiden 2 for the first time. Thank you great weenop for this masterclass.

Awesome use of JAM Project for the final fight!

Dude between the S tier jokes and the awesome music choices. Sold once I heard impending doom start up in the background. Amazing video man.

Like your videos, very thorough and detailed. There aren’t a lot of people that talk about DOA and NG, so it’s nice that I found you.❤

Wow. This is an impressive in-depth vid. Glad to see you enjoyed NG and NG2 despite not knowing about some of the advanced mechanics like Guard Buffering and Shuriken Canceling since they help smooth out the difficulty and make the off-screen projectile spam less annoying.

One of the best ninja gaiden 2 videos on youtube this really has to be one of the best games ever made and it deserves a lot more recognition. Say what you want about Itagaki but he is a mad genius

Love your videos man. Its crazy how your videos can be long ass hell, and you’re still funny the whole way through.

Your videos are great man. I'm glad the DoA and Ninja Gaiden videos gave your channel some deserved traction. I wish the best for ya and hope people stick around for other stuff you produce!

I replayed the vid 4 times so far Thx for creating such a masterpiece review

Dude! The fact you beat NG2 on mentor without spamming the dual swords 360Y i-frames, the lunars overpowered 360Y UT, the talons flying swallow izuna drop, and the tonfas UT, is very impressive! It's even more impressive that you used the flails as much as you did. Mad respect! You are a true gamer.

The only time I thanked the algorithm for helping me find your channel

The humor, the music choice, the humor, the appreciation for the finer things in the game, the humor, there's so much about this video that I like. Did I mention that you're funny as fuck? Keep up the quality content, king.

1:20:02 the way he said nigga had me rollin😭😭

The method.

1:41:15 Slaughter To Prevail over Ninja Gaiden goes so hard, you're so fucking based. I'm a huge deathcore fan myself. The "FUCK OFF" when he throws Ryu away is so fitting too.

Just stumbled on in and was blessed with this video. Weenop my guy you absolute genius patiently waiting for the next vid!!

This is the best channel I have ever found on KZfaq. Thank you man, you are legitimately so fucking funny and kept me entertained and invested for 4 straight hours

I found you by the dmc video and then ended up rewatching your ninja gaiden 1 video like 5 times, only then did I see how low your subs were and that's frankly criminal. I subbed and commented for the alghorithm, here's to more great vids

Great vid 🙏🛐📿 Hope the best for you and for the algorithm. This masterpiece deserves some recognition. I was pitching a tent the whole way through; could only wish I had just a fragment of your dedication🗿

I was already caught off guard with the Cheshyre music, but the A.a.R.Y. joke made my day. I never realized how thematically similar these two series were.

Ninja gaiden and Meshuggah Subscribed

Masterful video about one of my favorite games of all time, great stuff.

Just discovered this channel via the last video. Dude your channel is refreshing! Just a bro who who loves violent videogames. Love this, I wish you success

1:04:29 as a huge NG and Impending doom fan, Seeing those combined made me happy.

Ninja Gaiden 2 was absolutely insane and demanded so much skill. And I really like that. The creator was insane in a good way, brilliant even.

yeah this goes hard as fuck

I been keeping an eye on this channel and after finally watching this -- I have found the true successor to Running Shine. This is a high praise IMO.

I love how you synced bone golem headbanging with metal af soundtrack xD

Honestly using Death Will Reign during that first test of valor says it all. Fuck, this game is amazing, beating master ninja mode for the first time was all it took to burn me out from video games for literal years. So worth it though.

This is some high quality content, I was surprised by the sub count tbh. You need more and you will get them man.

I have never laughed so much watching a video and your colorful commentary. Keep up the great vids.

Absolutely an amazing video. I'm a fan of your channel now. Mind blown, you're very entertaining and fun to watch bro. I hope you find great success on this path! Good luck!

just finished and wow this is gold just like the first one I can’t wait for ninja gaiden 3

Man I literally saw a hole 4 h review of videogame i will never play. Really good man, I had a great laugh, towards the end especially! P. S Your neighbor Hose must be a real badass

I highly appreciate the enthusiasm 🙏

Gotta say you're freebird edit on that bike scene was primo.

Hilarious. Good stuff. Subscribed! Love the NG series and am planning to replay it soo,

I twisted the hell out of my ankle with the moon shoes I begged my mom to get me.

Your content and humour Is top Tier , keep up the good work man

You really just played Testament Souls of Black? Subscribed.

If it is good at the beginning, it's good until the end, I can tell it's the best essay of the games in the first 30 seconds

Ughh that intro went hard 🔥 god i love ninja gaiden

I found it charming and blatanly hilarious how much you love Itagaki san😂

This channel is the best thing to ever happen to my life

The dual katanas are also found without purchase on the ground floor of the statue of liberty behind the glass display on NG2.

The only game franchise that left my hands spasming after beating them on Master ninja.... 1 and 2 were so far ahead of their time, it's taken 2 decades for games to mimic the fluidity and brutality. These games (barring 3) just need a proper remake with Ng+ carry over, and also give the original difficulty levels as well as the gore. Best way to beat the game on master is to hold the block button at all times so you never absorb the orbs, find an open space then hold your ultimate technique button to instantly max it out and clear a crowd out. Use izuna drop quickly, jump away with the flying swallow for more orbs, you'll have 2 orbs ready for the ultimate technique again. Your best friends will be; never letting go of the block button, ultimate technique, the flying swallow, izuna drop, kunai, ninpo for clutching, and never staying in one place. For bosses.... Good luck you'll have to figure that torture out yourself, especially for gank fights and the Ryu clone.... The PTSD is unreal 😂 but it is very possible. The third game was a mess and isn't cannon, for me at least - Good luck to those trying to beat both games on master - I went through the torture of beating the 1st and 2nd games 2 times each on master difficulty just because of the difference versions, worst curiosity choice of my life 🫠

Truly I remember the hours of frustration 13 year old me had with this game but I also remember truly remembering feeling like a true ninja it's so fun

OG NG:2 was the first and one of two games in my life that INJECTED words and testosterone into my mind. *Death Cyclone, Murder Tornado* and the fact that Sigma 2 toned that down makes my inner madman vomit

"Joe Hayabusa" is actually accurate, albeit that it should be written "Jo Hayabusa" Edit: Alternatively it can be "Jō" or "Jô"

Would get a 360 just to play this fucking masterpiece

Holy shit never realized how Madness Combat music and Ninja Gaiden blend well together

I felt insane when I impulse purchased Sigma 2 for a dose of that sweet nostalgia and was bitch slapped by how different it is from Gaiden 2. Gotta say, I do love some of the new stuff though. Ryu based and real for assassinating liberty

First off: your videos are *Master Ninja* status approved. Amazing stuff. My first NG game was Sigma on PS3. Managed to do everything 100% (this was before trophies can into existence). Now where things got crazy was Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2. I got it on release and was adamant to get the platinum. There was 1 thing that was stopping myself and others - the co-op missions. You’d see the same names playing all the time to try and get this. About 10 of us (USA, Japan and me from the UK) were playing it non stop but it was beyond brutal. It took approximately 2 months and 2 weeks to get the platinum and I was only 23rd in the world to get it. It’s arguably one of the most dedicated and harsh experiences I’ve had in gaming but sharing it with others who shared the sentiment even with a language barrier with players from Japan. The fact that games like this don’t exist anymore (bar DMC5) is a shame. Majority of gamers don’t like these harder games.

madness combat music, a man of culture i see, you earned a sub my boy

I had a tough time starting out in Ninja Gaiden 3, trying to get back into it after not touching it since I was a kid, but once it clicked, I remembered everything I love about the Ninja Gaiden series.

Bro that stairway was my absolute favorite. It was the pinnacle of my autism scratch after having to acclimate to the gaiden up until that point. Totally irrational and awesome

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 has one great addition. NGS2 Black is a mod that exists.

Ninja Gaiden II was hands down my favorite game for ages. SOoooooo good.

52:07 - 52:15 is probably one of the best lines from this video

Genshin had quite the impact on Ryu

ninja gaiden 2 is just crack cocaine that is high on meth and weed

Did I finally make it to ninja gaiden tube? Great! I'll enjoy my stay

I remember renting the OG Ninja Gaiden 2 and getting all the way up to chapter 3 as a kid....Gigadeath...was the bane of my existence

This game is an assault upon the nervous system and I wouldn't change a god damn thing.

48:05 "Who's that character?" Me: It's Murai! "It's Gamov!" Me: FUCKKK

Just finished watching both the ninja gaiden videos loved it. Just waiting for the 3rd one to see ur opinion cause that’s one the black sheep

Father Bone looks cool as hell. His attack animations are dope too

Team Ninja has been killing it lately. Would love to see them come back to Gaiden. Ninja Gaiden was one of the first games i played as kid that had what we call today that Souls like difficulty.

I love the OG xbox 360 version, the test of valor on mentor mode finished me. Nightmare fuel

A ninja gaiden hood classic man.

I was lmao at 1:04:20 That test of Valor was literally a nightmare and I was screaming at my TV screen when I finally beat that god damn challenge. For some reason Team Ninja put one of the hardest challenges at the beginning of the game when it's unlikely to have a maxed out weapon. So especially your fighting near 100 ninjas with limited ninpo, freaking insanity.

I want you to know as soon as you showed Dagra Dai starting the fight with the BS Lightning Attack. You brought out like 10+ years of repressed PTSD in me. You're absolutely evil. I subbed. I didn't know I needed a 4+ hour cuss laden video about Ninja Gaiden 2, but here we are. Thanks man. I actually installed the Master Ninja Collection rather than my yearly romp through DMC4 or 5. You delayed Dante for Ryu. No small feat. Also, you reminded me we haven't seen hide nor hair of this series for too long. Ryu Hayabusa is too badass a character to not have a modern entry.

The funniest part is that everything you said about what Tomonobu "it isn't harrasement if I quit first" Itagaki would say or do is that they're absolutely possible and he would do them if he had the power or chance.

I love the Berserk music he uses 😍🤩

dawg, I just wasted the past hour watching this vid instead of finishing up my assignment. Why is this lengthy vid so entertaining? Also, great music choice. Another statement, love the cool editing introducing bosses.

The staircase is truly “peak”

This is entirely too true of a review, I remember spending months trying to beat this game for the first time. So many of the reactions you gave were spot on to what I felt dealing with this trashterpiece for the first time. Well done good sir well done

Whenever I see a thumbnail like this I know I'm in for a treat

holy shit man, that was great the hell levels art its so good it really holds to today's standart, also a lot cutscenes are very bad ass. Never played the game I might now.

This video is the youtube equivalent of crack. Well done man, i'm speechless.

shit makes me want to play this game now.. good video as always though brodie

Omg I found an interesting video to watch about my favorite games series
