I am Rikimaru. I am a shadow.

Who likes Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven? It's definitely the best stealth game, IMO. Easy, fun, intriguing story, multiple characters, replay value. And best of all NINJAS KICK BOO-TAY! Stealth killing a dog with a shuriken is alone enough reason to give this game a 10 out of 10. I can't believe they dropped Rikimaru off the roster for Fatal Shadows. I understand wanting the girlie eye candy but Rikimaru was just too dang cool.

Re: I am Rikimaru. I am a shadow.

my vote for best stealth game goes to Metal Gear Solid 3.

You should play that.

Its pretty good.

Another good stealth game is the Theif series!

Re: I am Rikimaru. I am a shadow.

I love the MGS games but I like Tenchu more because 1. NINJA! and 2. the story in MGS is told through overly long cutscenes that make you feel like you're playing for a little while, then watching a movie, then playing again. And the codec conversations can be WAY too long and frequent. Especially when the game freezes for a couple seconds everytime you go in and out of one.

Oh and 3. Multiplayer co-op.

I enjoyed the cinematicness of MGS 3.

To me it was quite engaging.

I loved the first Tenchu. Then Tenchu 2 sucked and I never played a Tenchu again. I'll check out the PSP game though.

Tenchu means wrath of heaven so translated, the title of the game is Wrath of Heaven: Wrath of Heaven.

Agreed. The first Tenchu was gold. Awesome gameplay, great characters, awesome soundtrack, hilarious dialogue.

Every Tenchu after that sucks balls, IMHO, including Wrath of Heaven. Unless I'm thinking of a different game but I don't think I am. Critics seem to agree.

I hope the PSP game is better.

And MGS pwns Tenchu in just about every way, especially in the story department. I also wanna bone Snake.

But yes, Rikimaru is the shiznit.

Re: I am Rikimaru. I am a shadow.

I'm definately excited about Tenchu on the PSP, but still, I
d be more excited if it was an MGS game.

Re: I am Rikimaru. I am a shadow.

How about an MGS game taking place in ancient feudal Japan?

The theif series is a lot more envolved in stealth aspects then these other games mentioned...mgs is a close second.

Re: I am Rikimaru. I am a shadow.

But Thief looks boring and lame. MGS is the tops because of its great gameplay and stellar presentation.

And im guessing youve never played a theif game...because they are far from boring or lame.
