Big NG fan here, including the NES games. As a fan, I gotta say that NG3 is a complete failure. Normally I can't stand IGN (I'm also a big Sonic fan) but this time I gotta side with them, especially about how it feels more like Dynasty Warriors than anything else. As much as I REALLY didn't like Itagaki, you gotta admit that Team Ninja has been going downhill ever since he left. Let's just hope DOA5 makes up for it.
