Does anyone else think that Shinobi X (Shinobi legions in the USA) is a fantastic game? I found it years ago in a second hand shop and it's a game I always go back to. The graphics and game play are spot on and the atmosphere is perfect for a Shinobi game. All the different moves to learn are satisfying too. It's a pity the last boss is so ridiculously hard. I only managed to do the last boss by cheating to get 99 lives and even then it took me 60 of them. What does everyone else think?

I love it, but it gets allot of flak from die hard shinobi fans...

I'm a big fan of it too and never miss a chance to big it up. I don't understand the flak it gets, because it looks and plays better than the other Shinobi games (IMO), but is still instantly recognisable as a Shinobi title.
I enabled the invincibility mode by cheating but got stuck on the level where the bosses are traversing up and down on the moving platforms. I'm not sure of the exact level, but nothing I can do will register as a hit on the enemies.

I've never needed any cheat on the game apart for the last boss. I've gotten up to the last boss countless times without cheating but boy is he hard!

a great game in the series but no match for the awesome cyber shinobi on master system.
*note* this post contains heavy sarcasm.

Sorry guys, it's got to be Shinobi 3 all the way. Great level design, more verity of moves, memorable boss encounters and a wonderful in game music by Masayuki Nagao. I do have some fond memories of Shinobi X however, playing it on my mate's Saturn because he decided to buy it and I took a pass. The highlight was the FMV sequences, with the dodgy fights and cheesy music. Brill.
