    Revenge of Shinobi or Shinobi 3?

    Which is better?

    Clearly RoS. Gameplay is outstanding, soundtrack is to die for.

    Hmm, the first probably has the better OST even though the 3rd (really 2nd) does havea few good tunes. As far as playability goes I'd have to go with part 3. It's not an easy choice but I feel it has that little more freedom than the original plus it looks better in parts.

      agreed, 3 has the playability and control you always wanted from a shinobi game

      soundtrack wise revenge of shinobi is better perhaps

      of course the arcade is king, a true ninja dies with one hit, none of this energy bar crap!

          I much prefer ROS, much more authentic and gritty. The Shinobi 3 jetski bits were utterly stupid if you ask me, and overall felt alot more gimmicky.

            3 is an ace game, but that is all.

            Super/Revenge has the music & art direction that sets it apart from most games ever.

              ..so, yeah, anyhoooo, there's this ninja right? and he's riding along on this NINJA HORSE, and in the background, you can see the ninjas attached to giant kites.

                The China town level in The Super Shinobi is excellent, with an unbeatable tune to accompany it,
                I don't really care a great deal for the 3rd installment so haven't played a great deal of it, perhaps I might give it another try at some point though, can anyone sell this to me, what are its good points, other than the horse riding/jetski

                  That's actually part of Japanese history. There are many games with Ninjas attached to big kites.

                    that's nothing new...
                    at the era of three kingdoms in Korean peninsular - think around the time of Dang/Song Dynasty in China or bit earlier - it was often used by armies to spy enemy's movement... so Ninja in Japan using the similar technique wouldn't be too surprising...

                    there's legend when the general using burning kite to lift the moral of armies after they saw shooting star - it was considered bad omen...

                      Is three the same as X on the Saturn?

                      At first I really didn't like the Saturn version, but once you've cleared a few levels it all starts to fall into place and the brilliance of it hits home

                      The level of control is fantastic.

                      Shinobi II on the GG is also really good, but the arcade still reigns supreme.

                          X is a different game, and sucks.

                          Revenge is loads better than Shinobi 3. I even rate Shadow Dancer over Shinobi 3.

                            X isn't that bad just not a patch on the originals MD games. For ROS it's hands down the best Ninja gme ever made. Par 3 is great, but nothing to ROS.

                              you people are trapped in the past -past, not just the past (like me)

                              can I just ask a question? out of all the people who have said that ROS is better than S3, how many of you have actually completed S3?

                              Shinobi 3 is better by a mile. ninja surfboards and ninja horses.
