If they ever remaster the Tenchu series, I really hope they will bundle all the games on one card/disc. I'd spend an entire week of vacation to Grandmaster Tenchu 1 to WOH.
@@Mbrace818 Sekiro is more like a samurai game. Tenchu is 100% ninja. I like that it is not too flashy either. Most of the skills and abilities are believable with a hint of supernatural which I love.
Honestly, Tenchu 3 has one of the dopest intros out of any game period. Really well done in all aspects, audio, visual, cinematography, it's just fantastic.
Nothing made me happier than finding out that Rikimaru survived the ending of Tenchu 1 and is once again a playable character. That guy is just so awesome!
I played this game 14/15 years ago and still remember it so vividly. This game was awesome and truly a hidden gem!!! I don’t know anyone that’s played it, they missed out!!!
@@lord-of-the-shinobi-worldSekiro is a far cry from Tenchu. Stealth elements are there but the soul isn’t. Isshin is an alright fight though. Kinda easy after Genichiro.
@@Mika-Fresh I agree with you. Not all of the elements of Tenchu are in Sekiro. In my opinion, Sekiro is the combination of these games - GoW Ascension - Onimusha - Shinobi 2002 - Tenchu
I still play my ps2, it's starting to show its age tho, the lense needs cleaning every now and then or it won't read blue discs and the disc tray gets stuck sometimes but it's still the best way to play these games imo, unless you know how to emulate properly, which I dont.
@@lilknifer561 awesome, I could never figure out console emulation, the console I was semi successful with was the wii but I messed something up and it wouldn't read gamecube discs anymore.
@@ZER0O9 man that sucks I know what you mean it’s really easy to do something wrong and completely mess everything up thats why I was hyped I got tenchu working lol only emulation I was successful on
This game brings back so many good memories including the ones where i played until daylight and realising i should have been in work five minutes ago.
I remember playing this back when it was out. I loved it so much. I mean just look at it. Seeing this back in the 90s was epicly cool. You actually believed you was a ninja.
Amazing run, grand master! If we ever get a remake, they NEED to keep the original music. The music is 50% of why I love this game. I also like the fact that my name is so close to the blade of Izayoi. I almost feel like it’s my blade, haha
Your in luck they made a spiritual follow up is called sekiro and it is every thing this game is but with better combat and compelling bosses. And yes from own them both
Ghost of Tsushimas Legends mode has a real Tenchu feel to it. I also played the single player game like it was Tenchu, big focus on stealth and using all the tricky gear.
@@vincenthammons6705 Finally, someone who doesn't argue Sekiro being a follow up to this. The differences between this and Sekiro are huge. And this game is just better.
I forgot how enjoyable this game is. Used to play it alot with my brother doing the Co-op missions. Really wish they made a new Tenchu game with full Co-op
I remember having the demo of this when I was a kid. Coming from a single parent family my mum couldn't afford to buy any of these games and I would never ask her. Never thought I would be able to play this. I would just replay the demo again and again. Now at 31 I downloaded a bunch of games onto my steam deck that I missed out on when I was kid. Tenchu, the onimusha trilogy, Getaway, silent hill and I'm loving it.
The cemetary leverl scared the crap out of me. The enemies, the super creepy music, the sword draining your health. I think it took me weeks to brave this level.
Dam u really must be young for u not to know about this game bro u should most def buy this game it's dope ASF it's the 1st Ghost of Tsushima game bro lol😂😂😂but it's a must play game I recommend u cop it u definitely won't be disappointed
This IS the original ninja stealthgame.. had everything... even the ability to one shot some bosses if you did it properly! I have spend so many hours in this game tryin to perfect all the runs. .. I really hope they up this up from the grave!!
In all honesty after birth of the stealth assassins (best tenchu game ever) this game hasn’t been the same. I wish they would remake the prequel it was so good.
I'm sure you get lots of comments like this. But it's really refreshing seeing somebody incredibly pretty into really niche, nerdy and cool video games. Especially ones that are old. C:

Assassin's creed shadows is this game remade. Rikimaru is even in the game but as a kid. His grandma calls him Rikimaru by name which is the coolest Easter egg ever and the game instantly brought my mind back to this game with just watching gameplay alone. Ubisoft forward 2024, Assassin's Creed Shadows gameplay is a must see for every tenchu fan.
This game was a Master Piece, whata perfect trology. If there is a game that i will always love, it is Tenchu. Time pasts so fast, it is like yesterday, that i played Wrath of Heaven by the First time, but alteady has 20 years. I hope this game will have a remaster or rework, or even a new game.
Loved Tenchu 1 , 2 and Wrath of Heaven back in the day. Come home from primary then around high school time wrath of H had came out. Man just to play these again.
I loved playing this game in the early 2000s. I remember renting it from a local video store that also rented out PS1 games. I also loved playing Tenchu 2.

If we're lucky, we will get a new Tenchu game. I mean Sekiro, was supposed to be a Tenchu Game but they added too many new things that they made it an original game so the dream is not over. From Software, please make it happen

Ojalá algún día hagan un Remake así como lo hicieron co RE con mejores gráficos pero igual, un Tenchu con Gráficos de PS5 sería lo mejor, para mí la mejor historia es la del Tenchu 2 el cual canónicamente en la Historia es el como el Origen de los Protagonistas como Ninjas 🥷

My wish for this as well.
Same here………I still have Tenchu wrath of heaven on physical disc.
Indeed! We sure need a 1-3 Tenchu remaster!
bro, just go play Sekiro in stealth way, IMO it's Tenchu's spiritual successor.
Just wanted to thank you for fulfilling my dopamine receptors with nostalgia. Literally. This game is what made my after school days blend together
Same here matey
I was always getting trouble by mom for not doing my homework cuz of this game lol good times.
Love reading the comment section of every Tenchu TH-cam video. It let's me know that I wasn't alone in being obsessed with this game back in the day.
It was Assassins Creed before Assassins Creed!
Guard after getting head cut off: “My life! It’s flashing before my eyes!”
Classic 😂
I'll never forget that line 😂
Rest in Peace Earl Boen, Narrator of Tenchu Wrath of Heaven.
:(
Didn't know this, thanks! His voice was a perfect fit for the game
This game deserves a remake. Nuff said.
nah, it's still a F*CKIN great game as it is that i would STILL play over a lot of modern games
I know yea but you must also remember...

Sekiro is basically a spiritual successor.

Fun fact - Noriyuki Asakura - The man responsible for the music in the original OST of Rurouni Kenshin also composed the music of this game.
Man, how i loved this game back in the day, i literally 100% the whole thing with all three characters like once a month lmao

Guy probably confuses this with the first game lol
Amazing run, grand master! If we ever get a remake, they NEED to keep the original music. The music is 50% of why I love this game. I also like the fact that my name is so close to the blade of Izayoi. I almost feel like it’s my blade, haha
Punish the Evil Merchant is such a good level. "LOOK AT WHAT THE CAT DRAGGED IN." Amazing.
