Tecmo Koei: Ninja Gaiden 3 will be better without Itagaki

The rift that happened between Tecmo Koei and Tomonobu Itagaki is no secret. It was one of the nastiest breakups in the gaming industry, and while everything's been quiet from both camps, the ill-feelings have yet to be completely washed away apparently. Tecmo Koei has got something to say about Itagaki's departure from the Ninja Gaiden franchise, and needless to say, Itagaki's not going to like it.

Ninja Gaiden 3 is the latest installment of the gaming franchise set to arrive in 2011. According to an anonymous insider source, the game is well under development already, and it's said to be shaping up beautifully. Apart from this, it's set send quite the shock to many gamers. That's as far as the game development goes. Now as to the developers themselves...

The general feeling now apparently is that "Ninja Gaiden 3 will be better without Tomonobu Itagaki." Ouch. The new Team Ninja claims that they're more well-rounded and "together" than the previous teams that worked for the past iterations of the Ninja Gaiden franchise. Well, if that's the case, it sure sounds like they've moved along pretty fine even without Itagaki.

As to whether or not the new team of Ninja Gaiden will be living up to this hyped up confidence, we shall only find out when the game comes out next year. That said, I wonder what Itagaki has to say about all this.

it's good that the new team is able to remain confident that they can pull of the new gaiden even without itagaki. that said, however, i think itagaki does deserve credit for the success of the 2 previous games. to say that the new title is better off without him is to say that itagaki hindered the franchise from blossoming. do you think the new team really can do better without itagaki around?

wrong answer. itagaki played a crucial role in the resurrection of the ninja gaiden franchise. ninja gaiden will not be the same without itagaki. i have both ninja gaiden sigmas for my PS3 and the game designs are brilliant 100%.

i've been playing ninja gaiden since the NES days and its on the top ten list of fav best games of all time.

Tomonobu Itagaki is an asshole! The first 2 Ninja Gaiden games were complete SHIT!!! Seriously the furst 2 Ninja Gaiden games are soooo BORING, with shallow combat, horrible story, boring characters, buggy gampplay and jsut repetitive! The Ninja Gaiden series is a digrace to the hack and slash genre!

The best hack and slah games out there are Bayonetta, God Of War 1,2 and 3 and Devil May Cry 1,3 and 4!

I hate Tomonobu Itagaki. He is such an arrogant piece of fuckin shit! Dead or Alive sucks and Ninja Gaiden sucks. I hate Tomonobu Itagaki for critisizing almost every single game! Every single game in the world is better than the games Tomonobu Itagaki makes.

With that said that fuckin dickhead Tomonobu Itagaki sucks dry roasted crocodile balls!

It sounds like you had a great night out with Itagaki and he promised to call you back but never did.
