Anyone who wasn't excited when this was first announced could easily be forgiven. After all so many high profile 3D console games get watered down and diluted into lame 2D platformers when ported to handheld.Dragon Sword however is far more ambitious than that. Trying to create a 3D standalone title to one of the most intense Xbox and 360 hack and slash IPs on to the DS is no mean feat, fortunately for us, Team Ninja has succeeded. In fact I could even argue that this DS series spin off surpasses Ninja Gaiden 2 for sheer enjoyment and playability.Translating the button and analogue stick movements to just the stylus and one button to block/dodge is a brave move, however they've done it and boy it works really well.The intuitive system allows the player within minutes to grasp the basics of jumping, slashing, darting across the screen and doing all the things that ninja's do best with ease. Dragon Sword's combat is extremely enjoyable and thankfully even the difficulty has been dialled down to a more acceptable, yet still satisfyingly challenging level (seriously, the console versions were sadistically hard.)The graphics are stunning for the DS and without doubt some of the best seen on the console. With great music and sound to accompany it this really is one of the tastiest aural feasts on the handheld.What stops me from giving this full marks is that unfortunately the game really is short. With about 8-10 hours worth of game-play it really is quite hard not to feel somewhat short changed. The inclusion of a hard mode and a few collectables don't really do that much to extend the longevity. However, this is still a great game and I'd rather have a short but high quality gaming experience than a long drawn out average one.
