<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->July 21, 2004 - Team Ninja didn't have to update Ninja Gaiden. Already one of the best action games of all time, the Japanese Xbox developer could have instead focused all its attention on Dead or Alive Ultimate and other future projects. Instead, Team Ninja Head Tomonobu Itagaki decided to reward fans by creating Ninja Gaiden: Hurricane Pack Volume 1 free downloadable content that adds a new camera system, tons of new enemies, a stellar new weapon, and two new costumes. Though Hurricane Pack Vol. 1 won't be available on Xbox Live until August 2, I was fortunate enough to get an early copy to take for a test run. The verdict? Best damn download in the history of mankind...

it sounds damn cool but it wasn't everything that i wanted to hear (for instance, only ONE new weapon so far), but then again it's

1) free
2) supposedly not the only update in store for NG

    It sounds awesome, and I absolutely LOVE Ninja Gaiden, but alas my roomate doesn't have or want X-Box Live, and he takes it back home or over to his girlfriend's so much (it is his, fyi) that I can't justify me paying monthly for a service to play on his X-Box.

    I wish you could order it on DVD or somethin so you didn't have to get it online.

    Do it.

    Ninja Gaiden is not only the best X-Box game I've ever played, it is one of the top 10 games I have ever played in my entire life. EVER. I rank it up there with the classics like Mario 3 and DOOM. That says something right there.

    The problem is I have no money, and the family struggles to meet ends meet, let alone buy a console for two games. Ah well. I can still oggle it.

    I'll wait till XBox dies and becomes dirt cheap and then buy one.
