What the fuck? This was made by a jp dev?

It does feel a lot like ninja gaiden. NG2 is still my favorite though.

soleil and valhalla are basically the same and they developed ninjala as well which is pretty cool.

Itagaki apparently has his own game in the works, he had little to do with designing Jack. The game's director and some of the top designers are the same as NG Black and 2 though.

I'm surprised they made Ninjala because cookieman doesn't like Nintendo.

remember that devil's third was a nintendo exclusive

They've been doing contract work since the flop of Devil's Third but Battle Through Time is something of a breakout title compared to doing the combat in somebody else's multilayer game.

I'm glad that the game retcons the shitty ending.

Yeah and he blamed Nintendo for it getting shat on.

They ported the multiplayer to PC and it died pretty quick.

Ah Devil's Turd. What an unforgetable game.

Outside of NGB and 2 Cookie's greatest achievement is still him showing up out of nowhere in a video at a pizza place to celebrate a basketball gaame.

he blamed nintendo america but was grateful of nintendo japan and satoru iwata for allowing him to make the game.

yeah like the DOA games weren't masterpiece

Shit, I was considering buying the game but now I wont
Fuck Oatmeal face

typical fucking sonyFAG. When will you learn that no one likes your fucking kind and the day the cleansing comes will be a day of rejoice. You fucking pathetic PSFAGS need to be culled once and for all. I pray daily that the war edges closer because your blood will run in the streets. Mark my words.

Xbox for life.

>the gameplay is basically ninja gaiden

Mo like Samurai Gaiden.

Looks cool and I like NG gameplay, but not gonna pay full price for a game based on a cartoon I've never seen or cared about before. I'll get it on sale one day.

So are we actually gonna discuss the game in this thread instead of the TV show?
If so, here are my tips that I want to share for anyone who like me is struggling:

1. You should not be afraid of using and breaking weapons, as they are going to be your main source of green upgrade currencies. The rarer the weapon, the more green upgrade materials you get when you break them. Breaking a common weapon like the Bamboo Staff gives you 50, while breaking rare ones can give you like 500. If you don't break weapons, it'll take you forever to accumulate the green upgrade currency.

2. You can either perfect parry projectiles or counter them. You hold block at the last moment to send them back at the direction of the enemy shooting it (though sometimes, geometry or other enemies are in the way so the projectile doesn't hit the enemy again unfortunately). You do the counter attack motion (block+strong attack) to both send the projectile back at the enemy AND slow down time.

3. If you want to disarm enemies, you NEED to be bare-fisted. Get the enemy to low health, make sure you're bare-fisted and press the throw button. You can't grab their weapons if you already have a weapon equipped. You just do a damaging or killing throw instead.

4. Reapers are the best throwing item in the game. They do tons of damage. You can farm for like 40 of them per Easy/Jack difficulty run of the first level. Just disarm every single bug before the swamp area and you have your Reaper. The process takes like 3-4 minutes and then you speedrun to the boss and be done with the level in 5-6 minutes total.

5. In the very first level, if you shoot the 6-7 red crystals on the walls near the starting area, you'll be rewarded with a treasure chest containing a sword better than your default one (though it has durability). It can be sold for 2,000 gold and can be farmed each time.

6. If you want to play it super bitchy, you can actually despawn certain enemies that don't lock you into rooms.

Braaaaaap

>these tips
here's some better tips
>the fist's 360 + x, the dragon punch is the BEST move in the game, carries you through higher difficulties and can be instant guard canceled
>your best starters for fists when you think the enemy is going to block is: rush guard y canceled from long ranges, jumping y canceled, 360 + y / y -> forward y bug (tatsu kick) canceled
>fists kiai attack is very powerful, huge aoe range when fists are maxed out and is essential to beating Demongo fast in Master of masters
>you can delete Demongo's health by killing his spawned enemies, get two or three black orbs to appear and slam your kiai attack
>to throw/shoot reapers/arrows faster, jump in the air, throw/shoot > cancel it with a double jump, throw/shoot
>colliding with walls/ledges or against bosses with a dragon punch allows you to dragon punch extremely fast, try it out on the beetle bug boss fight for example
>when the game decides to spawn bunch of low hp enemies, rush guard & grab your way through, equip magic sword to not accidentally grab shit weapons
>weapon swap cancel is 'semi' useful for canceling the recovery of whiffed attacks, it's usually way better to cancel on the active of your attacks with instant guard

I don't pretend to be the best player, but I see a lot of ignorance and misunderstanding about the game. For example, the reason why I put the weapon breaking on top is because I've seen so many comments from people saying they're scared of using other weapons because they might break.

He didn't actually do anything of note for it. He just works at the same company.

no it fucking isn't you retard

Samurai Jack is fantastic. I'm surprised so many people have said they haven't seen it in threads for the game.

So he didnt have anything to do with the game.

yeah there are people who legitmately think the previous samurai jack game was better, but at the same time thinking this game is some kind of ninja gaiden game, maybe casually but when i think of ninja gaiden i think of nes games, then izuna dropping non-stop, charging my sword, recovery canceling with shirukens, etc. this game is quite the different beast but in a fun way
