Very few (no?) games are worth $100+ in terms of gameplay value alone.  Not even Dracula X - sure it's awesome and tons of fun, but it's not 10x as much fun as something cheap like Bonk's Revenge.

Dracula X has far far more replay value then many games in its price range though. When you drop 100 bucks on Dracula X, you don't ever really regret it. You drop it on Kaze, well yeah, the feeling wont be the same because the game doesn't have that much replay value.

I keep thinking about picking this up but judging by most of the replies it's not worth the price tag.

Kaze Kiri is a pretty good game, but yeah, for that price, I don't know... it is on the short-ish side, and replay value is questionable.  But the game itself is quite fun, while it lasts.

I'd say burn it before you buy it. Or better yet emulate it. The $100 can be spent better on a everdrive.

I think if you are a very busy person it might be worth it for you. Not everyone has 40+ hours to pump into every single game they buy. Sometimes a Love and Destroy or an Astra Superstars makes a nice break from Super Robot Wars and Mario Galaxy. I think I'm probably not the only one here with dozens of "good value" games on the shelf that I'll never live to complete.

And many of the people with $100 to drop on a game this old are rather busy, unfortunately.

Kaze Kiri is a top 10 PCE game for me. This is at least %75 because of the graphics. I also like the sound FX and the way the dude just flies all over the f*cking place. From a gameplay perspective Ninja Spirit is 10x better so...make sure you have that first. :)

I'm very tempted ..Very tempted indeed! Been looking up videos and info on this title and I gotta say I really like it so far .. Might have to test out an iso on my Wii or Xbox first before I pay 100 plus dollars for this game ..
Finally playing these games I couldn't get my hands on back in 91' !!! Nec fan always !!!

there is a little bit of replay value.  game does technically have 4 endings.  really just 2 endings with 2 variations, but hey it's something...
