>>4364415
At least you can tell the Suikoden 1 US cover was illustrated by someone accustomed to doing Western fantasy art. Those character designs aren't ugly, just completely unsuited for a JRPG.

Tenchu US does look terrible, both design-wise and in technical execution.

>>	Anonymous Tue Oct 31 08:08:28 2017 No.4364431 >>4361948 >>4361748 I was pretty disappointed with Tenchu2 when it came out. No music. Weird daylight levels. A lot of linear levels. It was certainly more polished than the first Tenchu, but it missed almost everything that made the first one good.

No, both the PS1 games are reeeally good. If you're patient with getting used to the tank controls, you're gonna have a good time.

Tenchu 2 is a great example of what a quality sequel is supposed to be. It adds to what the first game was without fucking with the original formula. Great games.

Anonymous Tue Oct 31 10:44:03 2017 No.4364741

tenchu 3 was my favorite game as a kid, i later played 1 and 2 and both were great, i love how dark the atmosphere is in these games. occasionally they even delve into horror territory like the manji cult mission, or the graveyard stage in tenchu 3 where you have to use the sword that drains your health.

The best thing about this game were the cheats you can get 99 of any item, play any sound or music track from the game, teleport, place enemies anywhere in the map and even controller them with another controller which lead to a kind of pseudo two player. It was a lot of fun I remember to mess around and see what you can do with the game b

>>	Anonymous Thu Nov 2 03:42:07 2017 No.4368871 I played through Tenchu 1 recently, having never played it before and was surprised by how good it was. I think it does stealth better than a lot of modern games like Dishonored etc.

Yes, but it needs to be either the US version or the second JP release of the game.
You need to have the armor item, then at the item screen then enter left, left, down, down, square, square, triangle, circle.

The gameplay and level design is really good.
The mandatory fighting game boss fights in a game that rewards the player for never using and learning the combat system and which force the player to take an inventory full of grenades instead of cool gadgets is really bad. It averages out to mediocre.
