How good is Shinobi if anyone has played it? I might pick it up but how long is it?

If you're talking about the Game Gear one on VC, I say get it. If you're talking about the 3DS retail game, I have no idea.

'nuff said.

If your talking about the retail one.
It's a fun,but very hard game,with loads of content.

Anyone have any good cheaper ($20 or below) reccomendations? Looking at CRUSH 3D to get right now, but I'd like to keep my mind open.

My favorite games are those of the rhythm genre (Already have Bit. Trip Saga), platformers and puzzlers. Not a big fan of most FPS games, nor do I enjoy Sport Games. I'm also looking for something a bit innovative, which is why I'm looking at Crush

Is Sonic Gen for 3DS any good? i liked the one on 360 and saw they 3DS version for $30.

I would try out the CRUSH3D demo first to see if you like it.
@firearrow505 I second this, I'm looking into the game but don't know if I should get it.

I did enjoy the demo, but it was a bit challenging and I want to keep my mind open for other choices.

You don't have many good ones at this time, unfortunately. Crush is a great, underappreciated game, though, so either way I'd recommend it.

@rayword45 Are you open to regular DS games? If so, you have a ton of choices. As for 3DS, yeah, Crush is one of your only quality options.

Both Dead or Alive Dimensions and Samurai Warriors Chronicles are also $20 now.

DOAD is one of the better 3DS games out there, it just got overshadowed by SSFIV3D (the reason it's down to $20). I actually enjoyed DOAD more than SF though.

Samurai Warriors can be a great time waster as well. There are tons of missions & playable characters. The biggest complaint is that the series hasn't evolved much since the first in the series, but if you havn't played one before, that shouldn't hold you back.

yep its really fun its diffrent but you can have classic sonic do the homeing attack early in the game its not as good as the 360/ps3 but really fun if you played sonic rush its kinda similar but better

whats a good game on 3ds cause all i got is zelda oot mario kart 7 tales of the abyss mario 3d land rayman 3d starfox 64 3ds devil survior overclocked tekken 3d prime edition blazblue continuum shift cave story 3d sonic generation 3ds kid icarus uprising nano assault (im not counting my downloads cause theres alot so it take a while)

Dead or Alive Dimensions (Tecmo Koei), Samurai Warriors: Chronicles (Tecmo Koei), Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy (Namco Bandai), and Metal Gear Solid 3D: Snake Eater (Konami) are all fantastic.

Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition (Capcom) is also great, but I'd be sure to get DOAD first.

I might pick it up, thanks.

Shadow Wars. For $30 or less it's wonderful.

VVVVVV or Mutant Mudds?

I'm definitely buying Pushmo but I need to know which one is the better game and why.

Personally VVVVVV would be my choice. Mutant Mudds is fun, but it doesn't last too long, has cheap deaths, and doesn't try too hard with the 'retro' look. VVVVVV is challenging, but since you you respawn instantly, it's addicting to try continuously until you move past the part. VVVVVVV also has some other Usermade levels, and captures the 'retro' charm perfectly.

Music wise both are amazing. But between the two I would go with VVVVVV.

VVVVVV for sure. I enjoyed both, but VVVVVV is way better, IMO.

It does a better job in giving off a retro vibe, by going after the look of a particular system, in this case the Commodore 64 (meanwhile, MM uses "12-bit" visuals. a mix of 8-bit and 16 bit that doesn't seem genuine).

It's difficult, but every part of it feels like it's due to clever design. You will die, a lot, but the generous checkpoint locations means it never feels cheap (MM is difficult as well, but in the later areas, and during some hidden levels, they resort to cheap tricks, such as offscreen enemy attacks & leaps of faith, to keep the difficulty high).

If you count the "Player Levels" in VVVVVV (and you should), it offers just as much content as Mutant Mudds, at a slightly less expensive price point, and that's always a plus (and if you unlock something special in the game, VVVVVV can last you considerably longer than MM).

I'm going to go with VVVVVV then. From what you two are saying (and it's been said over and over for some time now), Mutant Mudds sounds frustrating, unrewarding and dull. VVVVVV on the other hand sounds like a good game at a reasonable price.

Thanks guys.
