Xbox game 'Ninja Gaiden Black' is an action-RPG game for the Xbox 360 system. Developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, the game is directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki and written by Hideki Kamiya. It is the third game in the 'Ninja Gaiden' video game series, and the follow-up to 'Ninja Gaiden II'. The player takes on the role of the protagonist, who must use their ninja skills to defeat enemies and bosses in order to progress through the game. This is done through using the game's three-dimensional environment to navigate, as well as using the PlayStation 3's touch-and-drag control system to move the protagonist around. The game is set in a variety of locations, including a feudal-style castle, a secret temple, and a dark forest. The game received mixed reviews from critics. On the review aggregation website Metacritic, the game has a weighted average score of 74 out of 100, based on 11 reviews. IGN gave the game a 7/10, saying 'With a few exceptions, the game is a mess. Its controls are terrible, its graphics are terrible, and its story is terrible. It's not worth your time.'
