    Alice O'Connor posted a new article, Inafune's 'Yaiba' revealed as Ninja Gaiden Z.

    Keiji Inafune's zombie-slaying ninja 'em up revealed last week under the codename 'Yaiba' is, in fact, Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z, starring a fallen ninja resurrected as a cyborg to slay Ryu Hayabusa. A collaboration between series creator Team Ninja, Inafune's Comcept, and Lost Planet 3 developer Spark Unlimited, it's being made for unspecified consoles.
