Finished Punch-Out & Ninja Blade...both very good.












I got my old school gaming back on last week with Punch-Out from Nintendo, it does bring back a lot of great memories from my childhood. I did like the second play-through in the game and ramping up the difficulty which eventually made me stop playing the game at the second Bald-Bull. This is not a slight on the game, I got exactly what I wanted out of it. This will give much needed practice for people willing to endure the new pattern learning process. I was bumed that I could not use the classic controller, instead of holding the Wiimote sideways which was actually pretty good. Good short fun, mabe wait until it's on sale or not...

Next up was Ninja Blade on the Xbox360 which is not Ninja Gaiden but is also fun in a different less punishing way. The achievements can be some what fun and the game play is quick and satisfying, the opposite goes for the story. Some of the boss battles can be fun & frustrating at the same time, yes I'm talking to you final boss...stupid wall climb. If you like Ninja shit & quick-time-events this is your bag!
