[About NINJA GAIDEN Σ]
In addition to being able to pull off unmatched dazzling techniques with “Ryu Hayabusa”, a young ninja who has inherited the ninja arts of the Hayabusa style, with beautiful stages in a westernized Japan embellished with spirit-world motifs, and more, the game is packed with features that are a must-play for any fan of action games.
■The epic story can easily be enjoyed with “Hero Mode”
When you select the difficulty setting “Hero Mode”, Hero Mode is triggered when your health becomes low. With Hero Mode, you will guard and evade automatically, and can unleash ninpo as much as you want. Even casual action gamers will be able to feel the heroic thrill of escaping a pinch to turn the tables on the enemy and advance the game. Needless to say, difficulty modes that will satisfy hard-core gamers are also included.
[About NINJA GAIDEN Σ2]
Become Ryu Hayabusa, the ninja who inherited the “Dragon Sword”, a legendary blade, and once again experience high-speed ninja action in which you face battles all over the world. The game is also packed with additional features such as “Hero Mode”, a mode in which the player will guard automatically when they are in a pinch.
■In “NINJA RACE”, life or death depends on speed
“NINJA RACE” is a mode in which you must race across the map within the time limit while fighting high-speed battles. In this mode, the number of enemies you defeat in succession is counted as your “CHAIN”, and by stringing together a high chain, your attack power will increase dramatically. Also, you can pick up speed-up and time increasing items along the way, so attacking non-stop, defeating enemies as fast as possible, and gathering items will be essential to your strategy.
■Along with Hayabusa, 3 heroines dazzlingly dash about the battlefield
Heroines from the “NINJA GAIDEN” series, “Ayane”, “Rachel”, and “Momiji” appear as playable characters. With “TAG MISSIONS”, players can select 2 characters from among Hayabusa and the 3 heroines, allowing them to switch between 2 playable characters as they complete their mission.
[About NINJA GAIDEN 3: Razor’s Edge]
The ultimate high-speed ninja action has returned! The game offers both extreme “challenge”, along with an equally extreme “sense of accomplishment”. Experience the series’ most alluring high-speed action.
■In addition to Ryu Hayabusa, Ayane, Kasumi, and Momiji join the battle!
In addition to main character “Ryu Hayabusa”, the 3 female ninjas “Ayane”, “Kasumi”, and “Momiji” can be used as playable characters. And they aren’t limited to just the “Chapter Challenge” story missions – the 3 characters can also be used in “NINJA TRIALS”. Also, “NINJA GAIDEN” series heroine Ayane has a dedicated story.
■Thrilling battles where you must be constantly alert
“Tests of Valor”, a special phase for series fans who want to enjoy battles even further, have been included. In each chapter, there are hidden skulls that serve as gates to “Test of Valor” areas. By stepping foot onto these areas, battles will occur where players must face the fiercest and strongest enemies from the “NINJA GAIDEN” series.
■Upgrading characters adds more replay value!
By collecting hidden “Golden Scarabs”, using “Karma” collected in battles, and more, players can unlock new weapons and ninpo to upgrade their characters. Of course, upgrades you have applied can be carried over for 2nd and successive playthroughs. Among moves that can be unlocked, there are moves that are new to the series, such as “Cicada Surge”, which allows you to dodge any enemy attack, “Meditation”, which allows you to consume your Ki gauge to recover health, and more.

I could say a lot of things about this game, but I look at the reviews here and come to the conclusion that it's not worth it. It is what it is. But I will say this: it's the best single player action game I've ever had the pleasure of playing.

The controls are wrong by default. Go into the options menu, and set the controls to type E to make the game play like every other game in the series.
Aside from that, not much to complain about. It's the same game it was back then. A bit contentious for a Ninja Gaiden game, but still an incredibly fun action game all the same. Losing the multiplayer is a bummer, though.

killing people has never been more fun, unfortunately almost everything else about this game is horseshit and infuriating to play that you'll want to kill someone for some design decisions made, so if you're a masochist its a pretty decent experience

This game is absolutely horrible. While it may seem decent at first with admittedly solid and fun combat, It WILL slowly break you down throughout your playthrough until all you have left is bitterness and frustration towards the game that killed your favorite action series for over a decade. This game is WORSE than DMC2, and you can quote me on that. I hate, hate, hate this game so, so much. Anyway, thumbs up. Pick it up when you can, you'll love it.

This game is insane, after Vanilla NG2 this might be the hardest one. The combat options are definitely the highlight of NG3: RE. If anyone was put off by the state of Vanilla NG3 and thus did not give Razor's edge a try, do yourself a favor and please try it.
It might not be the 'best' (whatever that means, don't let anyone tell you whats the best for you :)) entry in the series but its by far one of the most fleshed out and on point action games of the last 20 years.
Some of the enemy encounters in this game will drive you nuts lol, but if you push through and learn the basics and the advanced stuff that Ryu can do in the game, you're in for a hell of a ride.
Game also runs amazing, might not be the best looking game by today's standards, but it definitely holds up. But frankly, the graphical fidelity or art direction or even the Story is not the point. Its all about the gameplay.
If you're someone clamoring to play something close to Vanilla NG2 without needing to own a Xbox series whatever, then this will definitely scratch that itch. Its just all combat and nothing else, it might get a little exhausting at time, so do yourself a favor and take a break haha.
All the best to all the Ninjas out there

If you bought the collection then you might as well play it, but really the most value you'll get is ninja trials or redoing chapters as the other characters. Cool to see Kasumi make a guest appearance though. Main story just feels like a slog and the last boss might actually be the most irritating thing I've ever had the displeasure of doing in a Ninja Gaiden game.

This game is not for weak minded.It's not like previous games where you have insanely powerful shuriken cancels. Compared from previous titles, there is a little jank in the pacing of the game, but it is covered up by the insane combat mechanics. Regardless, Ninja Gaiden series is and always will be the Best Action Game in the world.
