I am thirteen years old and I believe this ninja game is the closest to the real thing more than any other ninja game. The most intriguing feature is that you can stealth kill your enemies. You can also chose a variety of items; shuriken (throwing stars), caltrops, poison darts, gas grenade, just to name a few. You may chose from two different characters who have their own story lines! And another awesome feature is that when you beat the game with these two characters (Rikimaru and Ayame), you get third character named Tatsumaru! Honestly the best Ninja game ANYWHERE! Highly recommended. I also recommend Tenchu: Stealth Assasins

Man, I played this game for about 2 months, and I must say even though the graphics aren't "state of the art", the game play and story line is incredible. This game kicks [behind]. Missions, Missions, Missions! Items galore and Ninja moves to boost. And after beating the game, you get an extra character. Love it man, if you plan on getting it, it'll be your money's worth.

Good and better...

Is a bit better than the first Tenchu, because it has bigger levels, an improved story, and a secret character. Good game, recommended. Also has lots of violence.

The moment you start the game, the moment you see the beginning movie(which is very excellent), you begin to think that Tenchu 2 is going to be something special. But as soon as you start the game, you instantly learn that the game suffers from horrible graphics, weird controls, and a camera that seems like it's trying to piss you off(that means that it sucks). Let me explain the graphics, the textures are jumpy, so jumpy that it's hard to see. Not only that, but the textures themselves are kinda crappy. And now for the weird controls, it's not so much that they suck, it's that you turn really slow, making it hard to fight(this is a problem during boss battles especially), if the game had a "3D Classic" movement(pressing left makes you move left instead of turning, etc), it would be much easier. Also, the camera doesn't make things any easier, it can get stuck in wierd places(this problem is biggest during boss battles). I also forgot to mention this: they AI of the enemy is horrid, the enemies you fight are as dumb as a chicken(maybe even dumber), they can lose you so easily(climbing to another surface, ducking under water, ect). Here's an example: I was fighting a boss and he fell down a five-foot cliff, he was looking for me and then he couldn't find me so he gave up(just like normal enemies), and then I jumped down and stealth-killed him. It was really stupid. Aside from all these issues, there are some highlights, like the stealth kill animations and variety, you can stealth kill an enemy in so many ways. Now, before you go off to play Tenchu 2, remember this: RENT IT FIRST BEFORE BUYING, you'll thank me later.

Tenchu 2: Birth of the stealth assassin - Circa 1999

GOOD:
- Easy and fun stealth gameplay
- nice/tight controls
- Custom mission mode, make your own missions

BAD:
- Really dated graphics
- Stealth gameplay can be overly simple
- Little replay value with not much to unlock

WILL IT FIT YOUR TASTE:
- The game is a prequel to Tenchu: Stealth assassin but plays the exact same way
- Ancient Japanese samurai and swords theme
- Ninja Stealth gameplay, more fun hack and slash then overly complex (think more Metal Gear then Splinter Cell)
- Three playable characters two male and one female

GAME ITS MOST ASSOCATED TOO:
- Tenchu: Stealth assassin
- Metal Gear Solid
- Siphon Filter

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
- Even though this is the second Tenchu game it's the first Tenchu game in terms of story
- The games custom mission mode comes with some built in custom missions from the Japanese version

awesome game!

Use to play it when I was just a kid, it was amazing then and still is one of my favorites. This game is a great game if you are a Tenchu fan. Its graphics aren't so great and the movement takes some getting used to, but it still is a fun game overall.

This new Tenchu game is awsome and packed with new stealth klls and combo moves. It is totaly better than the first tenchu. It all starts out in the past with a new player to fight with Tatsumaru. Awsome new levels and many more of them that would be 42 to be exact. Every character has a different story and better each time. Better graphics more blood and if you like gore theres lots of it, and if you like to be the one dishing it out then why dont you use your item selction screen packed with awsome new weapons to choose from with even my personal favorate the blow gun. Take down the Burning Dawn with your stealth and weapons kick a$$ like youve never kicked before. Thats why this game deserves a 5 two thumbs up plus fingers this game rocks!

great game idea, but not enough effort was put into it

The idea of being a ninja is a great game idea.I mean who wouldn't want to run around cutting people's throat? On a game of course. The game could be alot better.The graphics are terrible and it isn't realistic. Correct me if i'm wrong but I think the more realistic a game is the more fun it is. I hope if one of the creators for this game read this that they will make a much more realistic 3rd to this genre. Like I said before it is really a great great game idea but alot more effort should be put into it.
