[quote name='wildnuts02']i remember i tried the demo when it first came out. hard as hell but it made me want to keep replaying until i could make it through. ended up having a lot of fun and beat the demo.
anyone know if the rest of the game is like the demo in difficulty or does it ramp up a lot? not sure i can handle much harder :/[/quote]
It does get more difficult as the game goes on, but it really isn't that bad. A lot of people are complaining about how hard it is, but it doesn't even touch things like Shinobi (PS2), Ninja Gaiden (Xbox), or Contra 4 (DS). If you just spend a little time with it, you should have no problem getting through to the end.
I mean, what's the point of playing a game where you never even have to worry about dying? Grow a backbone people! This game has little to do with memorization and a lot to do with twitch reflexes.
