Tenchu 3: Wrath of Heaven for PlayStation 2

Pros: Neat plot, much improved graphics (still not WOW) a welcome rebirth
Cons: Graphics still polygonal, load time, half-hearted new features, CAMERA ANGLES *(read on)

Please don't be too misled by the title - I like this game alot, and I've been a hooked Tenchu fan since the first installment. However this time, I'm really dissapointed, and the long of the short of it is that retrospectively, I should have waited for...

Pros: graphic upgrade, more fluid movement
Cons: lots of material from previous games, camera still a little off

I don't think anyone that looks at this title will be unfamiliar with the other 2 games. While not a perfect game by any means, the first Tenchu was gaming heaven. I love almost all stealth games and this game is no exemption. Tenchu 2 was...

Pros: Rewarding and atmospheric, great feeling of real stealth
Cons: PSOne graphics, poor AI, tacked on 2-Player mode, average combat

Stealth. The goal of these games is to make it through the missions undetected, avoiding combat. It's fast becoming the new fad in videogaming, thanks to the colossal success of Metal Gear Solid and its amazing sequel. Games such as...

Pros: Improved control and graphics, more throat slitting action
Cons: Graphics are somewhat blah by PS2 standards, occasional camera shenanigans

Ah, Tenchu. Arguably the best stealth game ever made for the PSX. When it first hit the market, it revolutionized console gaming. Here was a taut, crisp game that encouraged the player to use their nugget, killing selectively,sparingly, and only when...

Pros: surprise!
Cons: pits

Recently, my boyfriend had bought me Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven as a gift. I had never personally played the Tenchu sequels, don't know why though. Hmm..whatever.

If you are like me, expecting Tenchu: WoH to be a game similar to "Duke & Nukem"...

Pros: No fog, improved graphics / kill sequences, blends the best from both games, 2 player
Cons: Camera difficult to adjust to, no map maker, can't move bodies

The first Tenchu was a great ninja game. The enemies seemed almost random in their looking about, and fought with honor (aka, some were quite tough to kill).

The second one weakened the grappling hook so you were no longer Spider-man, and...

Pros: Great Graphics, long and many missions, multiplayer, nice storyline
Cons: no more than 2 players, no dragging bodies, no mission creator.

The highly anticipated games arrives. Tenchu 3 gives the player a good storyline, long periods of gameplay, rewards, etc. Unlike Tenchu 2, Wrath of Heaven has no mission creator and the dragging dead bodies is not an option. But in the new version, you...

Pros: Story Line is good, Multiplayer is great and the graphics are marvelous
Cons: N/A

The reason why I would say this game is good is the story line it starts off fighting humans, you dont have much of skills other than using your brain, and you don't have many items in the beginning but as you progress you will learn new skills but to...
