Mark of the Ninja Review (XBLA)

It’s amusing to think that, despite how popular a subject for video games they might be, ‘Ninja’ are rarely shown as stealthy assassins. Games like Ninja Gaiden or the upcoming Metal Gear Revengeance tend to favor ‘over the top’ action instead of careful sneaking through the shadows. The Tenchu series was probably the last franchise I can think of that tried to focus on ninja being assassins. Fear not! Enter Klei Entertainment’s Mark of the Ninja.
