Shinobi

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- And tried the Shinobi demo last night, good 2D sidescroller action platformer. Demo gives you a lot of mechanics to master pretty quick, but in general the basic movements and attacks are pretty intuitive and fluid.
- Shinobi is still fun though.
- Another amazing action game by the Streets of Rage 4 team, it definitely lives up to the past Shinobi games (especially Revenge and Shinobi 3). Well designed levels, fluid action and controls really smoothly.
- It’s sick. Highly recommended. Vibing the gameplay style of this much more than NG Ragebound.
- Absolutely amazing game, combat is awesome, and the art style is just amazing. Highly recommend it!
Cons
- I used shinobi for 4 years and its alot prettier for sure, but it was a steaming pile of trash that NEVER worked right.
- Others I'm interested in but not quite as much (Hell is Us, Silksong, Shinobi, Dying Light The Beast) will have to wait.

Seriously dont sleep on this one. Graphics and combat are incredible so far. HDR looks slick on OLED too

I like the shinobi, and with a lot of cameras having pretty good internal formats, the lower power, fanless cooling, and cheaper is better for a lot of devices where you don't need internal recording.
This and Shinobi were my favorite reveals of the showcase, in part because each has a fantastic art style.
