Rate the Game: Week 43

**M-A-G** · 01-25-2021, 11:56 AM

We keep chugging along here on Rate the Game. Last week's Ninja Gaiden was pretty divisive but let's see where it falls on the leaderboard after we calculate the average.

Well, it stumbles a bit but it gets over the hump as far as scores go but it's in lower half sharing the number 29 spot with Killer Instinct with an overall score of 3.5. Ryu is in some good company with Jago.

Sword slicing and adrenaline-fueled action aside, we need a new game to rate for this week. Drum roll please...

...TA-DA!!! So we go from one notoriously difficult platformer in Ninja Gaiden to another notoriously difficult platformer in Ghosts 'N Goblins from Capcom on the NES. Is it a classic? Is it every bit the rage-inducing bitch the legends say it is? Is it overrated? You tell us. Take the poll and share your thoughts on this title. Until next week!
