Producenten for det kommende Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Atsushi Inaba, er tydeligvis ikke en stor fan af Team Ninja og deres Ninja Gaiden 3, hvilket han giver udtryk for i et interview med <a href="http://gematsu.com/2012/06/atsushi-inaba-ninja-gaiden-3-was-a-shitty-game-dont-compare-it-to-metal-gear-rising" target="_blank">Gematsu</a:
"People have been comparing it to Ninja Gaiden, but at least Ninja Gaiden 3 was a shitty game that cannot be helped. I don't want it to be compared to that."
Sådan!
