Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword Team Ninja - Image 1After a relatively good batch of games from the previous week, here's another batch of good gaming fodder. This time we're going to have some decent portable hack and slash action by way of Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword for the DS.

Apart from this, sure to grab your attention as well are the much awaited sequel to Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas, and hardcore Sega tennis action in Sega Superstar Tennis. Ah, Ulala!

Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword.Team Ninja is at it once again with Ryu Hayabusa's latest adventure, this time for the Nintendo DS. No button-mashing here; instead players control Ryu with stylus movements, not unlike in Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Slash your opponents with the stylus, and trace Sanskrit characters to unleash Ninpo magic.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2. Hit the city of bright lights, guns, and gold once again in the sixth game in the Rainbow Six series. Featuring the "Persistent Elite Creation" system, players are now able to create their own character that they will use for both the single player and multiplayer game modes.
Sega Superstars Tennis. Nintendo had its Mario Strikers Charged. Now, it's time for some hardhitting sports action from their former gaming rival, Sega, in Sega Superstars Tennis. A giant multiplatform release for all current systems, this tennis game is unlike any other that hit the video gaming scene so far. If you would like your characters to try to dance, get teleported to another area, and try to play tennis at the same time (among other things), then this is the game to get this week.

Nintendo releases more crap for the DS! Come on really? Diary Girl and Fantasy Aquarium? That is EXACTLY what's wrong with the industry.
