According to ESRB, this game contains: Blood and Gore, Violence
Parents should know that Ninja Gaiden is an extremely violent game, full of impalings, dismemberings and geysers of blood. It's certainly not for young children or the faint of heart.
Sensitive gamers and politically correct gamers will likely find fault with the game's sexist nature. Ninja Gaiden is also a supremely difficult game requiring much patience and practice, especially during the early levels.
Casual gamers will likely find themselves discouraged, but those who endure will find this game to be one of the most entertaining and deeply satisfying action titles to come along in recent memory.
Devil May Cry fans and Tenchu fans will no doubt thoroughly enjoy the proceedings.
Fans of ninja culture will also likely appreciate the game.
All dialogue is subtitled, which makes it easy for Deaf and Hard of Hearing gamers to follow the game's vague plot. Unfortunately, the game's wild camera, which sometimes can't keep up with the speedy Ryu, means that Deaf and Hard of Hearing gamers will miss out on necessary audio cues (for example, enemies respawing off-screen make a certain sound), which could leave them at a slight disadvantage.
