Ninja Gaiden introduced gamers to something that was never done before. There was a story that was told throughout the game through cut scenes. These cut scenes pulled the gamer into the the adventure of the ninja, Ryu Hayabusa. Asside from the cut scenes the game had top notch graphics for its time and catchy music to boot. I often caught myself humming the tunes as I played through the game. It featured a wide variety of enemies, bosses, locations, weapons and characters. Ninja Gaiden was one of the most incredibly challenging games, giving even the most veteran gamers a run for there money. The last few levels are notorious as one of the most challenging and frustrating than in any game. Ninja Gaiden was hugely successful and an instant classic whose success spawned 2 more sequels and a current game on the X-box.
