Hi all,

It is possible to play this game on the XBOX 360. I downloaded all the DLC, like the two Hurricane Packs. I know that via the Hurricane packs the option Ninja Dog is added. But when I start a new game I only can choose between Normal and Hard. Cant find Ninja Dog. Not that I want that option. But I am wondering if I have to do something with the DLC? Do I have to install it? Or doesn't DLC work on the 360?

1) you might have to get ninja gaiden black to play the extra dlc on xbox 360, i downloaded it from marketplace

2) you might know this already, but to unlock ninja dog you have to die 3 times in the first level, when it asks you if you are turning your back on ninja way or something like that say yes, then answer yes again when it asks if your sure...then it will put you in ninja dog

 

hope that helps!

Hi,
thanks for the info. I am aware of the 3 times you have to die before the option ninja dog is given. I downloaded the extra packs, but no ninja dog. So I think the Hurricane PAcks dont work on the XBOX 360 if you play Ninja Gaiden.

that sucks.
i guess thats why they put ninja gaiden black on marketplace since it has all the dlc on it.

Yes, I think so too. But I keep finding it strange that Microsoft has done nothing to make DLC work on the old XBOX games on the 360.

my guess is it would have cost money they didnt want to spend, they stopped backwards compat at about 56-65% of the old games too, siting that it costs too much money to make it feasible.
hope they put more effort into the next system being 100% bc compatible with the present 360 games........
