So
I was thinking about doing a hagane article (I've done three in the past) And if I did do it it will probably be the only decent source of information about that game (other than playing it) On the internet(s)
So, How about it?

Well seeing as how I just posted: "Oh man that game is amazing. IMO it's more of a Ninja Gaiden game than the actual Ninja Gaiden III on the NES. No cutscenes though. Anyone who likes Ninja Gaiden/Shinobi III/Run Saber/Strider MUST play that game ASAP. It's somewhat difficult to find but you can get the Japanese version for like $5. Or you could get the rom I guess.
I never beat it, I could get to the last level at one point though, the game is merciless. The lack of passwords is not cool, even if you know exactly what you're doing you'll be playing for quite some time.
Fantastic set of moves for the character though, great levels, great music, cool looking enemies and bosses. A must have for any action fan. It was developed by Hudson rather than Irem, but it has some similarities to Irem's older Ninja Spirit game if anyone ever played that in the arcades/on the TG-16 (the weapon selection is identical actually)."
about it one of the other threads I'd say I'm all for this. More people need to know about this game. Especially Ninja Gaiden/Shinobi/Black Manta/etc. fans.

I say go for it. From what I've played of it, it seems like a sweet game. Gonna need to pick it up eventually myself.

Definately do an article on it, I would love to read one and be sure to throw in the ending...
I didn't find finishing it too tough (I finished it on rental) but then again, I can't even come close to finishing Ghosts n' Goblins and Strider which people swear can be 'cakewalks'... :\
Is the Full Metal Alchemist: Hagane No Renkinjutsushi game on the PS2 remotely related at all? It seems to have a similar Metal Robot buy on the box art etc...?

Nope. "Hagane" is a common reading form for the kanji "kou". "Full Metal Alchemist" is more or less a translation of "Hagane no Renkinjutsushi", "hagane" meaning "steel", actually.

Thanks for clearing that up  I was tempted to pick it up after seeing the robot guy in the background but now I know better |
