    It would be terrible. They would make it like assassin’s creed. But it would have micro transactions. I just want a pure upscaling if the old games. I would also accept 2 with the glitchy stealth kills fixed and adding back in a sound track as two had the best story other then WoH but removed the sound track to replace it with a loop of “nature sounds”

    Same childhood. Til this day I still love the shinobi and many things "stealth" but Tenchu is my favorite. I later found Anthony Cummins channel where he seperates myth of ninja from reality. This only made me more obsessed in the shinobi.

    One of the very rare instances back in those days when the western release was the definitive version/better version of a title. At least until the versions that expanded on that.

    1:28:58 you prob didn't mention this for time, but in case you didn't know, In Shinobi Gaisen the decapitation is 'censored' due to CERO age ratings. So as Riki strikes, the camera cuts away to a wall and you see blood splash up it to cover the usual shot of Kataoka's head being removed =)

    THANK YOU one of the greatest games of all, perhaps my favorite PS game, brilliantly documented. 1:33:02 the pretans are not breathing fire; they are trying to drink the lakewater along with the humans in middleground but they can't because the water is like fire to them. They are ignoring the god on the left holding his bowl, from whom pretans are getting sustenance. In the back we see gods watching on clouds, less dense than we and the pretans.

    Yo I'm new to the channel and I gotta say, I'm loving the videos!! 624 followers is a crime, my man. Please hang in there, channels like Grimbeard had a smaller following for quite a while, but he stuck it out and he's doing great. Happy to be on board and I hope to see new videos!

    Don't know of any Tenchu fans have noticed, but in Tenchu: Fatal Shadows, the cave mission is a remake of the cave mission from Stealth Assassins, and mission 9 or 10 (can't remember exactly) is a remake of mission 4 from Stealth Assassins

    I think they remade Cross the Checkpoint in Time of the Assassins too. Or maybe that was Fatal Shadows too.

    2:14 - you're missing out if you haven't played thief the dark project. get on it. tenchu 1 and 2 are great but they suffer from being beholden to crippled hardware, wrath of heaven less so. meanwhile thief is flourishing thanks to a modding scene and 25 years of custom maps. unparalled freedom of stealth in some masterpiece missions

    This game was great unless they see you through a wall or building randomly. Other than that I loved it.
