9/12/2023 0 Comments Shinobi ps2 review![]() ![]() This is, surprisingly, one of the better games for the 3DS’ trademark visual capabilities, with the already pleasant backdrops coming to life with a flick of the 3D slider. This keeps things simple, and the 2.5D perspective helps bring the stereoscopic 3D capabilities of the system to the fore. Though 2002’s Shinobi on PS2 introduced the series to 3D environments, Shinobi on 3DS decides to take the series back a step, instead going for 2D gameplay with an isometric twist. The plot isn’t really the focus here though, as Shinobi is all about the gameplay. The textures are pleasant, but they tend to seem a bit cut and pasted as the game goes on The story exposition doesn’t give away a lot though, with merely static scenes being accompanied by clichéd platitudes on inner tranquillity, and all those other fun abstract concepts and one-liners that have been handed down through generations of kung fu movies. For those who are interested, it serves as a prequel that tasks long time protagonist Joe Musashi’s father, Jiro, with defeating the evil Neo Zeed crime syndicate. This isn’t to be the case though with Shinobi as, in making itself very obviously part of an old gaming tradition, the story is arbitrary and minimal at best. ![]() It does so successfully for the most part, but there is a reason why these styles of gameplay have died out as of late.įollowing my usually abstract introduction, this would normally be the part of the review where I briefly summarise the game’s story. ![]() Shinobi is one such game, revoking the 3D gameplay of its 2002 PS2 forefather in favour of the classic 2D gameplay of the 90’s Shinobi games. This has resulted in the current trend for games to look like they’re out of the 16-bit era, but there have been a few that have dared to play like their retro predecessors as well.
