Ninja Gaiden Hurrican Pack

[J1NG]

Hot DAMN! I'm getting my ass kicked! Uh, if you play HPII, make sure you're good with HPI, and work on survival rather than making time bonus's. Gonna jump back in again now.

And yeah, that avatar is somewhat psychologically disturbing here also...

So tempting... I just can't spare the time to fix my WiFi bridge. Have to wait 'til the weekend.

Friggin Heck! I finally beat the boss (Took the whole DAY!, I can see a lot of people not making it for this one). Some nice pointers for completing (not getting points) the pack here: (Spoilers!!!)








Whatever you do, try NOT to lose the Talisman of Rebirth until the boss itself. Otherwise you're going to kick yourself real hard.

Do not upgrade any weapons! Personally, the only weapon I found I needed to upgrade was the Luna. And you only need to do it once, (It starts at level 2) Usually on the last phase. Just use the Dragon Sword and the Luna.

It's tough. Real tough. Get the Armlet of Benediction as soon as possible. It'll help with the essence. And if you have enough to get it on the first go, get the Armlet of Tranquility too. Swap between them as necessary.

Buy the Art of the Inazuma at earliest possibility. Get two Spirit of the Devils, and Jewel of the Demon seals if you can. And upgrade the Inazuma. This is the bare minimum I suggest in going through this pack.

When you can, buy the Art of the Ice Storm. (It's crazy I know, but it's friggin useful against the boss). Again, get the two Jewels to power it up. Forget the Art of the Inferno, because it get's very little use, and usually misses in this pack.

Can you Intercept multiple times in succession yet? You will by the end of this pack...

When you get to the boss. Use either the True Dragon Sword, or the Luna, do not use anything else, as they're unlikely to be effective!

When you have spare cash left, upgrade standard stuff (Lives of the Gods, extra potions, etc). You don't necessarily need everything in the store to win. Just the right combo (and I think I got a OK one up their).

Currently ranked 71st in the World with around 2.6 million (Yes, that's right, it's that average). And 1st in the UK. But I can see that drop. But probably not very fast because of the amount of difficulty in the pack. Current top score of around 4 million. And drops very rapidly down from there.

Uh, updated my score. 3.2 million. Ranked 71st out of 330 odd in the world. I don't think I should drop below 100 this time. Scores aren't easy to get in this pack. Anyway, how are you doing in MNT3 then?

I've played for about 5 minutes. Enough times to get killed three or four times. It's a tough one for sure. I'm just not at a place right now where I can devote enough/any time to it.

I picked up Steel Battalion last week. It's the game with the custom 40 button controller. I've only had time to play it for about an hour. It's complicated.
