Currently the greatest Shinobi game ever!!! Sure the difficulty from The Revenge of Shinobi tone down a bit. Just not as much as Super Castlevania IV though. Everything you possibly could ask for an Shinobi game imaginable. We even get a surfing level not many ninjas in gaming done that in the 90s. I personally considered this among the greatest Genesis games. Also among the greatest Sega games ever!!! Shinobi 3 is perfection in every sense of the word. You get a great variety within the stages to keep it interesting. Yes there's a notable learning curve to a degree. The audio as a whole truly fantastic work. The controls possibly the best I ever experienced in an Genesis game I'm not kidding. It's a worthy sequel to The Revenge of Shinobi. Everything that Shinobi done amazingly well somehow done even better here. This Shinobi game is a must play before you die period. It's a really great Sega game that's holding up amazingly well to time. Shinobi 3 was so good most newer Shinobi games didn't do well. In all honestly, the entire game is virtually mind blowing awesomeness.
