Great game. I know that I played it until I no-deathed it on highest difficulty.

My favorite in the Shinobi series.  One of, if not the best action game on the Genesis.  The music is also arguably the best of any on the system.  This is an awesome game that everyone should play at least once.

Solid 8/10. Great game.

I feel like I should be into this, but I never am. I like the original Shinobi a lot though. I just don't prefer how Genesis platformers look, feel, and sound in general I think. 6/10

Never crossed paths with Shinobi III but super interested in it.  I don't really have a way to play Genesis at the moment, though.

Def a 9/10 

I loved this game since the day I got it. I cannot say I beat it thought I find it on the difficult side.

Have you played Shadow Dancer for Genesis? It's the closest to the arcade Shinobi.

This is a fantastic game, and one of the Genesis's best.  9/10

Man, if I ever saw someone on this site with a Shinobi III avatar I’d bully them.

I’m a huge fan of the left-to-right action games (whatever the hell they’re classified as) on the Genesis and this one is one of the best if not the best on the platform. Solid title. As mentioned in previous threads I’m stingy with scores so I gave it an 8 though it’s probably a 9 for me personally.

Absolutely incredible game. I still haven't beaten it after a handful of attempts but it keeps me coming back for more. This is one of those titles that makes me regret not getting into Sega more in the 90's. The Genesis was home to some amazing exclusives.

9/10

I like the Genesis a lot, but the Shinobi games never really clicked with me aside from the Game Gear ones. I voted that I haven't played it, and likely never will. I played Revenge and Shadow Dancer, and they just never did it for me. Though I do think Shadow Dancer is cooler than Revenge.
