I know it's a long shot, but are there any Tenchu Z players out there? I'm a very experienced TZ player with a fully upgraded character looking to do some multiplayer with people who aren't GameFAQs kiddies. Smile

For those unfamiliar, Tenchu Z is a fantastic Xbox 360 game that plays a lot like Assassin's Creed. The graphics are a little lacking, but it's the gameplay that counts. The controls are slighty different from what you might expect, but a couple tweaks in the options menu can give you a layout extremely similar to AC 1 and 2.

For anyone looking for an addictively fun game in a similar style to AC, I highly recommend it. It's been a budget title for several years now and can often be found for 15 or 20 bucks (USD) in stores.

Disclaimer: Don't judge this game on just a few minutes of play. In the beginning, your newly-created character is weak and you need to unlock some attributes and skills. Once you've got the hang of it and your character is a little more experienced, the game is ridiculously fun. When playing co-op multiplayer, the fun rating jumps up even higher. Especially when you're competing to get the highest number of stealth kills. Laughing out loud

Sadly, it sounds like the development team was dissolved a couple years ago. From what I recall reading, all Tenchu games since and forthcoming are by a different team, and they're just nowhere near as good. Even previous Tenchu games weren't quite as good as Z; this one was essentially the pinnacle of the series under that development team.
