Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports).

"Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

Posting Rules

  • Posts must be directly gaming-related. Thus, "generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission; similarly, reaction GIFs are also not appropriate as submissions.

  • Following Reddiquette is encouraged

  • No "general" URL shorteners (bitly, tinyurl, etc). Single-site URL shorteners (such as youtu.be or fav.me) are allowed.

  • No game or product giveaway of any kind

  • NSFW submissions and comments must be labeled

  • Spoilers can be posted using the following formatting:
    [X Kills Y](/spoiler)
    Result: X Kills Y.

  • To mark a spoiler as relevant to a specific game/topic, use the alternate formatting:
    [Player 1 wins](/spoiler "Pong")
    Result:
    Player 1 wins

  • Report posts containing spoilers not using the above method

  • Don't post users' personal information.

Submission Rules

Is your post not showing up? Do not delete it. Wait 5 minutes to give AutoModerator a chance to look at it; it approves most submissions automatically. If it hasn't shown up after more than 5 minutes, simply message the moderators and ask us to let it through.

Another PS1 classic that deserves a remake. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushido_Blade_(video_game)

Best sword fighting video game in the history of the known universe.

i just dl'd bushido blade a week ago, and it still holds up. the graphics look like asshole and the music is annoying, but i always killed the music anyways. makes it more like a duel.

I just liked cutting the trees in that one level.

[–]Hammedatha 2 points3 points ago

Oh yes. A good swordfighting game really needs to be made. Blade Symphony will hopefully cover the Jedi Knight style crazy fights, but a more down to earth, intense, game like Bushido Blade would be awesome as well.

[–]DachWuff 2 points3 points ago

Heck yeah, I loved Tenchu and Bushido Blade.

One time I drank a gang of white russians, then totally barfed all over my friends floor because of the grappling hook effect on this game. It was fantastic.

[–]intothelionsden 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think it might have been more the white Russians and less the grappling hook.

[–]skamando 1 point2 points ago

That exact same thing happened to me. I ended up getting Tekken as well. Both are amazing games.

HA! I just posted the exact same thing then scrolled down. Good to see I wasn't alone.

Throwing riceballs into a lava flow and watching soldiers melt to death trying to eat it was in my top 5 childhood moments. Cannot upvote hard enough.

The one on the Wii is pretty good, if you guys want a nostalgia trip and a reason to use your Wii again.

[–]OoogaOoogaYoink 1 point2 points ago

God I love that game so much. Still got it sitting on the shelf. Played for hours and hours on end. So much damn fun. A remake would be SICK!!

[–]micahshell 1 point2 points ago

This was always my fave ninja game, shadow of darkness. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCQCAIGZm_U

I always hated Tenchu, until I realised actually, I was being a total moron. Throw the rice on the ground. Sneak past the enemy.

[–]Skitrel 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I preferred throw the rice on the ground, slit the enemy's throat.

[–]vicwolfe[S] 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

it was pretty hard to play at first but once you learn how you can troll the enemies like a ninja, damn it was fun all way long

[–]HearshotAtomDisaster 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

i preferred squatting my ass over a roof ledge and pooing mines on the enemy's head.

[–]TuneRaider 3 points4 points ago

You only ever needed one rice ball for most levels - simply kill the target before they reach the rice ball.

[–]PsychoAgent 1 point2 points ago

Ah... Ninja: Shadow of Darkness. Rented it when I got my first PS3 in '98 or '99. Didn't have a memory card so had to play all day without turning off the system. Never did beat it.

[–]PsychoAgent 0 points1 point ago

Nah... I just knew Ali G personally. He came up with the idea for a PS3 before the PS2 even came out. That man is a real genius.

[–]Drewsome 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It was all about the second one, and how you could make your own levels for your friends to play. Real fun.

[–]Skvid 0 points1 point ago

ah... my very 1st stealth game.

[–]bludstone 0 points1 point ago

Still the best ninja game IMO.

My brother spent the last week playing through all of the games in order without being seen or killing anyone.

The game really supports that kind of play.

[–]Sergnb 0 points1 point ago

I remember playing the demo for some Tenchu on PS2 and I absolutely fell in love for it. Never got around to buy it since I didn't even remember its name.

[–]bcstoner 0 points1 point ago

I got this game when I asked my mom for tekken. Loved it.

Tenchu 2 was pretty boss as well. Shame everything else after that has been... not good to say the least. I'm surprised they still make more in this series considering doesn't really have any brand recognition/nostalgia going for the series (never THAT popular) to help sales unlike, say the continued Spyro or Tomb Raider games for example.

[–]crapattf2 0 points1 point ago

i recall it being as being shambolic. i don't think you couldn't look in the right direction when you wanted or something.

we couldn't stand it and went back to tenchu 1

[–]mckzr 1 point2 points ago

LEVEL EDITOR.

I spent so much time making maps that were impossible to beat for my brother, as he did with me. Seriously wish they would re-introduce that map editor back into the later games.

[–]crapattf2 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

your version of the game well may have been ace then. the official one was terrible and a real disappointment after tenchu 1

When rikimaru dies at the end I was so sad, until i got the ayumi thong outfit.

So much time spent with the level creator... so much time. Underground water tunnels and spike traps galore.

[–]NecDW4 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I thought only T2 had the level maker? Or maybe it was the only one with a level maker where you could add swimming and stuff. Fuck it's been so long i can barely remember. That was one of the best parts though.

[–]Tyrien 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It may very well have been Tenchu 2. I can't remember the difference between the two either. I only remember "Tenchu" and that the first one I played let you build kickass levels far deeper than most games could ever hope to allow.

[–]Rorkimaru 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Japanese version had a level editor but it was taken out for the EU version. T2 had it for the english release too.

[–]NecDW4 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Dang, i wish the US release of 1 had it too now. I never knew i was missing out.

[–]CozmoNz 0 points1 point ago

Anyone try the cheats? You could do shitloads!, place enemys, choose how they patrol etc, was pretty awesome setting up huge patrols only to have it turn into a runlilefuck seris

I had this on a demo disc and played the holy hell out of it. I'm going to live the childhood dream and buy it now for a mere 70p on Amazon.
