Replay – Tenchu: Stealth Assassins
When you think of stealth games in 1998, it's understandable if the first title that comes to mind is Metal Gear Solid. That said, another well-received stealth game released less than a week before it. Activision published Tenchu: Stealth Assassins on August 31, 1998, and it allowed gamers to take out enemies with a variety of ninja tricks.
How does the stealth action hold up 16 years later? Watch below to see Andrew Reiner, Joe Juba, and myself test out our sneaking skills.
