This game is one of the best ninja games around. It's unique charm cannot be rivalled. There are a lot of people who want ports, remasters, remakes and new sequels of this frenchise. From different stealth kills that are unique to the angle the kill was implemented on the opponent, to the ninja meditation chant that would grant or reveal new abilities after a set amount of stealth kills. This game franchise was purely epic. Starting these off as ports, would surely get the attention of a new/modern sequel. Alot of us want this.

I grew up playing all the tenchu games my dad introduced me to the very first tenchu I Ben obsessed with this game since it’s literally my email lol and if they can remake this game for ps5 it would go over viral best stealth assassin game ever honestly even let you create own board to play on
Melhor jogo no estilo Stealth que eu já joguei! Meu sonho é a GOG relançar ele rodando nos computadores atuais para eu poder jogá-lo! Esse é um jogo à frente no tempo, com uma ótima jogabilidade e muitas coisas para serem liberadas, além de ter um modo multiplayer bem divertido que eu jogava com o meu irmão.
The best ninja game created by man. Tenchu, there are many ninja action games, but this game imitates how ninjas behaved to defeat their assassins in the feudal era. It was also the first stealth game along with Metal Gear.

The best ninja game ever made imagine being Leon the professional but with ninja gear! and I believe every gamer out there is missing out. I didn't play the whole series, but this one did it for me, IMO it's the most fun you can have with a stealth game (the 1 hit kills you can inflict are very cinematic) and there are some 2 player co-op missions (i.e. twice the fun). There isn't any other game of its ilk; let's support the people who make fun/art!

This game is a memory of mine that I constantly remember, it was very hard to find because I played it when I was soo young and didn't even cared for the names of the games I played. I live in the middle of nowhere Brazil. One day, when I was around maybe 6 years old, my cousin asked me to go with her to the lan house(sort of cyber coffe) to play video games. I think we were the only two girls in there and we decided to pick the game by the box art that we liked the most which was Tenchu. My cousin was faster and picked the girl character first , but I didn't care because the male character looked like my favorite Naruto character - Kakashi. We were instantly hooked on it and played almost every time we went there. But here is the thing, me and my cousin were too young, we didn't understand very much what was going on (we didn't know there was an story mode or even the concept of story mode), so we just played the first mission to collect some sort of parchments, but we didn't see it very well and we called it little boxes -- that was also how we called the game "little boxes game" haha. I never got back to play the story mode even after growing up, so having this game ported to modern pc would make my life easier and I would have a reason to go back and finish the whole story, maybe even call my cousin and we can play it together again like when we were kids.

Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht
Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur MachtXenosaga: Episode I - Der Wille zur Macht, the first chapter of a trilogy, is a Japanese-style sci-fi role-playing game, sharing many common themes and gameplay elements with Xenogears. The battle system is not unlike the one used in Xenogears (combo attacks, AP and EP gauges, etc.), but random encounters are eliminated. Instead, the enemies are now visible and battles can be avoided. During combat the few upcoming ally and enemy turns are shown onscreen, allowing the player to make strategic decisions based on who will act next. A rolling slot moves with each turn as well, conferring a bonus such as added damage or bonus XP for any action on that turn. If the enemy would be in position to take an advantage then the player can expend a character's "boost" gauge to cut in and act next, although enemies can boost as well, and enemy boosts always over-ride player boosts. Each character has a unique tree of Ether spells they can learn by spending Ether points earned in battle, with lower spells requiring spells above them to be purchased first. After a spell is purchased, so long is it does not require a unique talent of that character, the spell can also be purchased and learned by any other character that can afford double its normal cost. The Anti-Gnosis Weapon Systems can be equipped with different weapons and accessories and can be used in combat provided that a character has enough AP on that turn to board their AGWS.

Xenosaga I & II
Xenosaga I & IIXenosaga I & II is a combined remake and retelling of Xenosaga Episode 1 and 2 redesigned for the Nintendo DS. The story changes were handled by the creator of the series. The game changes large parts of the storyline in Episode 1 while following the elements established in the original game. This includes adding new characters and changing how some scenarios play out. Changes in Episode 2 were much larger as the main character perspective of the game was switched from Jr. to Shion to match up with Episode 1 and 3. Some characters are removed from the story or have their fates changed or revealed. Some dungeons are removed, edited, or replaced. It also answers some questions that the original did not as you follow a different path through the same overall story. It also changes the combat mechanics of Episode 2 to match Episode 1.

Shadowrun
ShadowrunShadowrun is an action role-playing game.It was adapted from the cyberpunk role-playing game Shadowrun.The game is the second video game adapted from Shadowrun, and has a more open ended style of gameplay than its 1993 Super NES counterpart, Shadowrun by Beam Software. The game is set in the Shadowrun universe, in the 2050s. A time where the blending of technology and human flesh is common; it is around the time the Matrix, a huge computer network, came online, with the ability to jack into its cyberspace directly. It was also a time of magic renewal: a phenomenon known as The Awakening occurred, where magic returned into the world. Sorcery was once again possible, and slowly and seemingly at random humans began to mutate into orcs, dwarves, elves or trolls. This time of upheaval was not without political conflicts: mega-corporations began to control the world. But with their magic, native shamans threatened them and the world geography came to a complete change. The Amerindians and Elves reclaimed an area called Salish-Shidhe, close to the free city of Seattle, a major city in the newly formed United Canadian and American States.
