Ninja Gaiden = Too Hard

[DarkStar]

Okay, I just got this game and I have to vent. I seriously cannot make ANY progress. It's just too f*cking hard. Go ahead, say I suck. I don't care. The insane level of difficulty of this game is just a complete turn off for me. This game got rave reviews so I bought it. That was a mistake. Definitely one of those "regret" purchases.

EDIT: Oops, I was so pissed I put this in the wrong forum...mods, do your thing.

Where have you gotten up to?

Where have you gotten up to?

I'm at the end of chapter 5. I can BARELY get to the last boss. At least, I assume it's the last boss of the level. It's the big monster that eats that chick with the large breasts. This game just does not let up. I kill 4 huge dragon-creature things and THEN there's the boss of the level? WHAT? I've been trying to beat it for two days. I've decided it's impossible and given up.

Oh thats easy. You use air attacks to chop off its tentacles then slice at its eyes when they're open.
Its eyes will remain open as long as both tentacles are cut off. After a while the tentacles grow back and you have to repeat the process.

Once its down to half its health it'll began spitting out orange goo at you. Just dodge it and keep doing jump attacks at the tentacles and slash its eyes until it dies

Okay, thanks for the help Sparta. I'll try that, but I seriously don't think I'm good enough.

Well if you got through the first guy and the cyborg, then you should be able to get through this monster

Try using the Gamespot Game Guide for it. That'll help when you're stuck
