Guys iv setted up a petition few years ago to have Tenchu remastered. Get signing and sharing www.change.org/p/eric-hirshberg-make-tenchu-wrath-of-heaven-remastered-for-ps4
- I know what you want, you want the stone, it's safe inside my belly, you're not going to get it! heeheeheeheehee! - You use the stone to hurt people. I will take it...even if it means gutting you!
I loved tenchu so much since my childhood, the game starts really normal, normal human beings and shit and then you get further and further and you start to see some really dark shit and you're just like wtf is going on and freaking out and shit lol
I remember this game starting out very realistic in terms of fighting Samurai/Ninjas and the like. Then I recall getting to this level and instantly I was like "oh shit what the hell is this?" The level freaked me out, yet fascinated me so much, I decided to play like my life depended on it. Took me 2 hours to finish the level and I got Master Ninja; not bad for a first run through. Great memories.
The original Tenchu really did a great job of sprinkling the supernatural elements in at just the right rate that you don't really notice them building up (at least not the first time you play through it), until you suddenly find yourself fighting the literal King of Buddhist Hell, at which point you go "Waaaaait a minute, what?" while dodging lightning bolts.
Creepy as hell! And it's even more creepier with the baby cries in some areas of this stage... too bad it's not part of the track itself, but an ambient sound.
Sure you mean those naked sideways walking thingys. they are no babies but victims of the stone they kept, that slowly turned them into zombylike creatures while the victim probably doesnt even notice it.
@@schuhsuppe7228 i was on this level before they say if you look you'll see dead babies on one of the towers no joke i literally saw them the manji cult used them for a sacrifice ritual that's why you hear the babies crying in the background the zombie like enemies are manji cultists
*Enters Level Six* *Sees creepy ass village taken by cult* *Hears this track* Nope, fuck this, I may have been trained in the arts of the stealth assassination and the capability of hiding in the shadows, but no skills will make me enter to that fucking place, specially with those crying babies, fire-spitting thin bobbleheaded dwarfs and such.
i remember being a kid and i saw my father play this game and i HATED this level it HORRIFIED me lol but now i LOVE this level and the song and want to play the whole game again :3
Benjamin Boston My dad also played this game when I was kid. I always loved watching him playing this great game, and when I was old enough to play, I still enjoyed it
This level was one music track away from making Tenchu a Survival Horror game. Seriously, if you played this level with no music you'd be seriously creeped out by the baby cries and crazy cultists walking around XD.
Show me a game made during this era, with music as rich and atmospheric as this one, single track... and I'll align all the planets in the universe to make a giant happy face. I won't hold my breath.
@@Gggmanlives perhaps it's because that the theme is associated with some of the most disturbing enemies in the game. But without that into consideration, I gotta admit, it at least makes you think more properly in my opinion (if it doesn't make you fall asleep right away. xD)
THE STONE!!!! I remember the days when I would play this game with my cousin, this level always freaked me out a little as a child, mainly because of those creepy pale white creatures that blew fire, but eventually It didn't. Such a great game, with great music to go along with it, would be nice to see a new one made for the next gen consoles, or an HD collection, can only imagine how great that would be.
I never imagined my mother would be into this game. I would watch her play this game and when I first saw the little gray demons, it genuinely freaked me out, especially when it gave chase.
Trilha sonora uma obra de arte F A N T A S T I C A em todas as faixas!!! Ai que saudade de jogar!!! Platinei o jogo na época! Iniciava o jogo as 22:00 horas e parava as 05:00 do outro dia! Tenchu ! Clássico ! Jogaco !
I can't, because not only do remakes ruin the original vision of the game 99% of the time but this is a level about a mystic cult worshiping some entity that is corrupting their bodies into some unholy blend of male and female sexes. Rainbow hairs would not touch this with a ten foot toxic masculinity pole.
@@deathtoraiden2080 While I don't agree with the whole "original vision" thing. After REmake 2, I am just against remakes of games that were already good and would rather have remakes of bad games.
@@civilwarfare101 How can you not agree? It's literally a recurrent phenomenon. REmake 2 was decent. Does not replace the original but is a decent game of its own. DEmake 3 and 4 were a disgrace. REmake 1 is one of the few examples of good, true remake.
@@deathtoraiden2080 Because these are long running franchises and they can do whatever they want. The original vision can mean anything. REmake 2 was "decent" and 4 is bad? Are you serious? REmake 2 is a mess. The guns feel like garbage and the third person camera does a poor job replacing the fixed one. At least REmake 4 mostly improved a game that is antiquated by today's standads. There are a number of third person shooters I can name that feels better to play than the original RE4. Old school RE never really got surpassed by it's competition. Where RE4 did. I agree on REmake 1 but then again REmake 1 is better than any survivial horror game.
I loved using debug to control the dancing cultists with a second controller. They can bust a serious groove. I can almost hear their strange cries right now. ^_^
@@ALionInTheWinter News to me too, saw another comment talking about a guy using debug to fight his friend as Onikage! The algorithm has been pushing Tenchu ost I think, OP is from 12 years ago 😂
I was 8 when I played this game for the first time, and I was scared as hell by this level... This game, beautiful memories, would totally buy a Remastered
i was 10 at that time, played at night when i'm home alone, and too scared with this stage. recently I looked for tenchu emu, and still uncomfortable with lmao. husband laughed hard.
This music is like all western and eastern Asian music mix-up put altogether. I mean you can hear Japanese, Chinese, Indian and even Arabian influence.
I'd say that this game not only redefined video games in general, but it was the whole package, the story was unique/different, the gameplay was challenging and fun, but most of all, the music really pulled everything together and just made this game a masterpiece. I played it a year ago from start to finish and it's still so good, but what is timeless is the music, I can listen to it 10 years apart and still be hit by nostalgia and chills from how each song is different, and special to each level. Fucking love this game.
This track is both creepy and unsettling at the same time. And wtf were those weird noises in this level. One sounded like babies crying and I have no idea what the other crowing like sound was. It's weird and unexplained, as far as I know and I love it.
