quote Order66

And you're right, if someone played one of the others by itself they would be tricked into thinking it is a good sequal(Not saying their bad games just bad sequels)

WAAHOO! He gets it finally! You just summed up my entire opinion on games in general. Yes- Tenchu's are all similar and don't have many extra mechanics to the gameplay. And Yes- i play them because i believe them to have a great story and are fun and i like Ninja's in a stealth game.

I could say the same about MGS. Now, i think they are similar to one another (alright they improved/changed more than Tenchu has). But i don't care- i enjoy the gameplay (graphics don't matter at all to me quite frankly) and want to see how the story unfolds.

You can't say i have complete denial after that. It's what sort of gamer you are, and what you want from games!

And anyway, i like Tenchu: Fatal shadows for what it is- the most solid Tenchu game to date.

(I'm a Tenchu fan, not a fan-boy- Technically i am a man, and i'm not one of those people who call people X-box fan boys or PS3 fan boys or whatever. I am a fan of game series', not the console itself!)

Alright man, enough slagging about with FS for now eh? Lets look to the positive- Tenchu4 coming to both Wii and PSP.

well currently i have the first tenchu and dark secret for the DS in the psx game i just achieved grand master rating in every level with rikimaru and am working on ayame which i only need levels 3,8,9,10 should be easy

and yes i am a big fan of tenchu iam trying to find a tenchu 2 for the psx and then ill move up to the ps2 games

Haha just like me- indeed it is best to progress through the series orderly. Although some series DO work well if you start with a new instalment and work back.

Good to hear you are taking it upon yourself to grandmaster the original! By the way- Wrath of Heaven is a masterpiece of a game!

thx ill see were i can get a copy of WOH rite now im almost done with Ayame just levels 3 and 10 left

Level 10 is Rescue the princess... remind me which is Stage 3?

When ive got bored of the PS3 ill come back to Wrath of Heaven, it would be interesting to hear your opinion on it! Also Fatal Shadows is technically the best Tenchu game, but my personal favourite is Wrath of Heaven!

level 3 is rescue the captive ninja and good news i grandmastered the whole game with both ayame and rikimaru, now i just mostly mess around with debug mode, using onikage is really fun exept for the fact that he only does 5 damage and cant throw anything

Hey, good to see you on Neoseeker again! I'll be on here more often if you want someone to talk to about Tenchu, or if you need any help (although i doubt you need it)

Hahaaa yeah spawning a Mei-Oh or 2 is so funny!

Well Wrath of Heaven's multiplayer is really good if you have a friend to play with and a second controller! And Onikage is playable- and He is amazing to say the least! He also has his own story-mode on Tenchu: Time of the assassins for PSP.

I haven't yet got bored of my PS3 in the months since i last posted! But i'm eager to go back and play Wrath of Heaven after playing the new Tenchu: Shadows Assassins on my PSP. Are you getting the PS2 Tenchu's sometime?
