But what really buggs me the most is the fact that they announced the game as "Yay, this will really be Xbox exclusive, this time" and AGAIN they release a PS3 Version with TWO additional chars this time and other Sigma exclusive content.
Do they want me to sell my XBox360 and never buy a Microsoft game, or what?
They could make the content from Sigma downloadable via XBox live AT LEAST, FFS.
The combat actually feels significantly worse than in the original Ninja Gaiden.
New weapons and combos as well as obliterations, ok, but already on Mentor mode the chances to get between the grappling, incendiary shuriken spamming "claw ninjas" are down to zero.
How the fuck is this guy a ninja yeaaaa i see he has a black suit and moves fast with a kick ass katana and ninja wepons.... that dosnt make him a ninja when i think a ninja i think sneakey uber kick ass mach man
not a kickass macho man that has so much blood oh him hed stick out in dark black room where no light enters
And finally - the technique I used: - I just jumped and used by throwing stars - They don't do damage, but they do keep the enemy off balance (and you never run out of them). - I just keep that up until I get close enough to rip them apart with my meelee weapon (preferebly, the Eclipse Scythe).
Overall - there's no luck to it when using any of those techniques - It's even possible to get past them without any damage.
I'm not even thinking about Hardest Difficulty. - Is that where you had the trouble? It's my first time - so I started on Path of the Warrior, but I watched a guy who posted a walkthrough on a harder difficulty and he didn't use my techniques, but still didn't have many issues with those rocket launcher guys.
The 1st NG was re-released as NG Black because the missions were added on to it. - The first NG allowed you to unlock and play the NES versions and those were the biggest differences.
If you have ninpo - use that. - At this point I have my fire ball Ninpo fully upgraded and that would wipe the rocket launcher guys right out.
Another good weapon against them is your explosive darts (if you have any) - I guess you could use arrows, but they may not be quick enough.
Another thing I suppose you could do is "keep moving" - The rocket launcher only hit you is you stay in one spot. - keep jumping and dodging until you get close to them and use your eclipse scythe:
And where's the proof of him turing into a bird? - I see the bird at the end, but there's no Ryu to Bird transformation there. It's likly the same bird that brought him back. - The grave (if you follow the story, which I admit is better than NG II's story) - is where he gets the jewel that gives his sword full upgrade. - That is not Ryu's grave, but some other poor ninja master.
As far as the story as a whole - I hate the fact that it doesn't really pick up from where the last one left off and there's no mention of Rachel - It's like a separate story and not a continuation, but it is supposed to be a continuation - and that did fustrate me, but again - it doesn't kill the game.
Uhh he dies in chapter 2!!! in NG1. Of course even though hes dead he can die again in the game. uhhh. negatives AND positives are opinionated. Just because im arguing cons doesnt make my opinion less valuable. To be clear im not saying its a horrible game im just been arguing it could be way better and much less annoyng for the good it comes with.
Well - to be clear - I'm not saying it doesn't have negatives. - You jumped in at the back end of a debate between Ripvan X and myself. - This debated started off with Rip arguing that it is in fact a horrible game. - he even suggested that it should be a shooter instead of a ninja game.
My comments were there are shooters and action games - This game falls under action/adbenture and maybe even fighter. - And it doesn't fail in those catagories and it shouldn't be considered a shooter.
Yeah - I later skimmed through a walkthrough. - And now I do see where you fight certain Bosses over and over. - That does sounds like laziness on Team Ninja's part, but it doesn't kill the game as a whole. -
Once again reviews average around 8. something for this game and more fans like than hate it. - That's the only point that I've been trying to make and those are backed up by facts.
Even the first form of the final boss you have to exclusively use just the bow. you know how anti climatic that feels. dodge....shoot.....dodge....shoot..uhhh. There is also a common theme among reviewers who praise this game. They all sound like theyre drooling over the crazy fast paced fights and graphics, which are great i dont deny that, but they overlook all the bad because they love it so much.
Dude - I'm not losing focus - That's all I'ver been saying the whole time is that it's not a bad game as RipvanX implies. - Yes it has it's negitives, but the Overall Value is top ranked - That's all I've been saying the whole time.
Most negatives are opinionated. - Some complain about the difficulty and I embrase it.
Oh that reminds me of another boss where you have to fight two dragons and you have to fight them with just the bow. Its so awesome they give you so many cool weapons and then force you to use the bow. Oh yeah they recycle this boss too and fight it again. man I mean after all the action its just...Annoying.
Next recycling bosses, even if it makes sense, is always really annoying. you end up fighting so many of those spider fiends not to mention the exploding armadillo which you fight three of. its just lazy. design more bosses man. As far as Difficulty goes i like a challenging game too but thats where the the projectiles cross that line. You dont have much but your bow against hordes of army guys. NG 1 had balance for this just a chapter or two. this just drags you deeper and deeper.
A:This was his last complaint which is nothing to complain about.
You fight another boss that is just like the first one, but nothing determines if it's the same one - It's a Ninja Fiend - It could be any Ninja.
And I'm assuming you fight the Spider Clan Leader again towards the end for you didn't get a chance to finish him in the first batter. - But really - what is that to complain about?
Okay you're kind of losing focus. I didn't mean to imply it deserves a low score. I was just talking about the points brought up so far. But we can expand. Firstly, almost every reviewer, whether or not they thought the game was good or not thought the story was wack. I mean the fact that youre still ryu alone is kind of dumb. Hes dead. I mean in the first one hes back for revenge and to secure the dark dragon blade. So now hes just hanging out in the living world for fun. okay.....
Wait what do you mean he's dead? - He never died in the first one. Hanging out living in the world for fun? - Ahhh.......Isn't that what living people do. - He didn't die - I don't know where you get that from.
Ryu died in the 1st one at the end of chapter 2 when he was fighting that armor ghost being. And when you beat the first game you see him visiting a grave, then he jumps off a hill, turns into a bird, and fly's off. That same bird was staring at his mutilated carcass at the end of chapter 2 in the 1st Ninja Gaiden.
I remember that in chapter 2, but he goes through 10+ more chapters after that. - The Bird brings him back to life which is far fetched, but it is a video game which is as "fantasy" as a movie or cartoon or another video game that you might like.
Me again. - OK - I like the game (and so does many others) - You dislike the game and I accept that. - But, this is not an attempt to bring this debate back up.
I'm just informing you that I finally made it to the rocket launcher guys - You were talkiing about on the airship, right?
Well - I had no problem with them. there's a few techniques you could use to beat them................Next Message.
Also you can tell he doesn't follow the story for he mentions Ryu's brother Joe. - But Joe (and it is explained in the game as well as the instruction manual that Joe is his Father.
Then he says figured the first boss crossbred hisself with a spider, but in the first Ninja Gaiden it is explained how these monsters come to be and it's not from crossbreeding.
A: Now in his review he admits that he didn't care what certain Characters had to say in the cutscene - then he also says he couldn't hear some of it. - He also complained about starting off in Tokyo and all of a sudden being in NY. - But if he could hear and did care what was going on in the cutscene the story wouldn't be incoherent. - They explaning in the cutscene why he goes to NY.
"Genuinely challenging game though it may cause you to break controllers."
A: This reviewer doesn't like the difficulty. I agree it's hard (not as hard as the original IMO) , but I don't want to play an easy game.
"Cannot hear voice acting in some cutscenes"
A: I have no problem hearing the cutscenes, but I don't like the fact that they don't have it subtitled for those that can't hear. So I sort of agree with this one.
I was just guessing before when I was saying reviewers gave this game a high rank. - So I actually looked up sites and it's hard to find one review giving it under an 8. - I found only one that gave it a 7.3 -
It even got a 9 from three sites and an 8.7 from the well known IGN, and an 8.9 from Atomic Gamer.
I read the 7.3 reviewer and the negatives with my resposes are above.
Also the game can definetely cross into cheap territory and these "professional" reviews youre talking about agree. on gamespot they say "In Ninja Gaiden II, the badly implemented camera and other factors can lead to trial-and-error repetition that relies more on dumb luck than on your controller-wielding prowess." Other sites also say things like this IGN,even the site this particular video comes from agrees on that. It can be cheap. I have more complaints but ill wait for your response first
No matter how many complaits one has - this game is still top rated. - I'm in Chapter 6 now and haven't seen the rocket man yet - But RipvanX said that he's a "soldier" not a "ninja" -
I have yet to be "annoyed" - and I have yet to win a battle by luck.
This video says a few negatives - But more positives. - Every reviewer gives it way more positived than negatives. - If it was the other way around this game would be a 3 or lower instead of a 7.5 or higher.
But overall this back anbd forward between gamers is going no where. - Just look at other NG II clips on youtube and read what gamers are saying. - I am far from the only one that likes this game.
I mean it's just a fact you guys are in the lower percentage.
So what professional reviews "point out negatives." - But that means little when the Possitives out weight the negatives. - All they're saying is that the game isn't a 10, but in no way are they saying the game is a 5 or lower.
So parts like this turn into how am i going to run up the hundred feet with my melee weapons to hit this guy with infinite missiles that h can continously fire like hes got a minigun for them. The game simply has to many parts like this. fighting ninjas is fun but after the beginning you simply dont very often. I reference the title screen ryu standing alone with all the swords. the swords represent all the enemies who have given up fighting hand to hand and choose rockets instead.
I will agree with him. I give the game credit where it does do well but its simply annoying other times. Firstly i must ask if youve finished the game. based on your previous comment it sounded like you only played through chapter 5. If not then obviously finish it. that said i believe the rocket launcher part hes talking about occurs in the city. i dont remember what chapter but it fires a large spray of rockets and he seemingly reloads it nearly instantaneously. -continued in next comment-
OK - you give the game credit where it does well - but according to him - This game gets "0" credit - he even called it cheap. - And no I haven't finished it because I'm not the type of gamer that plays it 6 hours a day 7 days a week. - I might get a chance to play it maybe an hour a week.
This game is the ultimate oxymoron. Almost all the enemies shoot at you with bad camera angles. I thought Ninja Games involved using melee almost the entire time, NOT GUNS.
Well - He's fighting mostly monsters. - The few scenes in this game have a few enemies shooting explosive arrows, but I did see some clips in later chapters where they use guns, but I don't know if they're spider ninjas. - Could be they are military for he fought military enemies in the first one. - But overall - it's a good "game" - being that it's a "game" and not a ninja documentary - I can let the inaccuracy pass. Really, if you want history on ninja techniques - don't use a GAME.
OK - I know what a "Shooter" is. - But there is no such thing as a "Ninja" game. -This falls under Action or Action/Adventure or maybe even Fighting. - And this game doesn't fail in any of those catagories.
Ninja Gaiden has been around since the early 90's (maybe earlier) and he's always had enemies shooting at him. - Now all of a sudden you suggest it should be a shooter because in a few Chapters he has guys shooting at him?
Just because it's a bit inaccurate to the "Ninja" style? OK..
When I watched my friend playing it there were soldiers that fired rocket launchers that fired as rapidly as a machine gun! He couldn't do anything, all he could do was get raped in the ass cuz all you have is a crappy ass bow, some shurkins( which suck) ans Nympo( which is limited).
And when you say it has been around since the 90's, ino -.-
Theres a big difference from when Ninja Gaiden was in the 90's till now........ITS 3D NOW. WOAH!!!
All of them - So far I'm at the end of Chapter 5 and the only person with a gun so far was the special agent chick.
You talk about "soldiers" with rocket launchers - I remember them from the first NG. - And the point is they are Soldiers - not Ninjas. And so what your friend got raped. - That soulds to me you guys would rather an easy, non-challenging game.
3D isn't a difference as far as what we are talking about - Extra effects has nothing to do with the type of enemy you face in games.
There is a difference between being challenging and being cheap. This game is cheap. When you have to start relying on luck to get past a certain part in a game its not well thought out. Im glad you accept that a soldier shooting 10 rockets at a ninja within .5 seconds of each other is acceptable when all your character can do is swing a sword. The camera is also a bad aspect of this game, so why have guys shooting at you with bad camera angels? Makes no sense and its not challenging at all.
Luck - Dude it's not luck if you know what you are doing. - I have never relied on luck in any NG game. - I learned the moves and how and when to use certain weapons/ninpo as well as defend and dodge. And Ryu can do more than just swing a sword. - And when does a soldier shot 10 rockets in .5 sec. of each other? - What chapter and which NG? -
I agree that so far up to chapter 5 in NG II - I like the original better, but NG II is far from "cheap"
Dude - this was a mature debate until you went with the name calling. - And I didn't say luck has nothing to do with a video game - I said luck has nothing to do with how I win at NG. - Yes, you can get lucky in video games and I never said you couldn't. - But Luck isn't the primary way one is successful at NG.
And negitive aspects overshadowing to good ones is once again an opinion of the lower percentage. -
It wouldn't be such a highly ranked game (by professional) - If that was true.
Overall - Opinions are respected, but opinions mean little when you look at the actual ratings from magizines web sites, fans, etc.
You're in the lower percentage of people that have negative things to say about it. - If it was the other way around then I'd stop defending this game, but there's too many professional sites and magizines that say you are wrong.
You want to know why I am being negative about this game? because the negative aspects overshadow the good aspects. Oh, and apparently you are one of the lower percentage of people who believe that luck has nothing to do with a video game. You are a fool.
Really dude - it's just me and you on this video page. - Go to other Ninja Gaiden II pages for the proof - It'll be so difficult to find someone that agrees with you.
yea i typed it on youtube dumbshit but all the is is ninja gaiden sigma with the letter "E" in the dam back of the title. if u wanna learn about numbers go to pre-school. they also teach you how to write them the "right" way too dumbass
If you ment Ninja Gaiden Sigma it's just a remake for the PS3 of the original Ninja Gaiden on the Xbox. Either way the story sucks, it' all about the gameplay in this game.
did you just finish smoking pot when you typed that in.....there was ninja gaiden 1 for the xbox,ninja gaiden 1.5 for the xbox,and there was ninja gaiden sigma for the ps3( basically a enhancement for 1.5) and now theres this ninja gaiden 2.
stop fanboying you fake gamers. i dont give a damn what u ppl think which console is the best. fact is that this game is freaking sweet and that its not on ps3 i dont care, most of you real gamers probably agree because you have both consoles.
arguing about consoles is for kids who can only afford one and so say anything to make their choice the best one, even if the arguments are false or true.
this is what your mother told to you. When she's whit me she told only: oh yes! fuck my ass ! PS everyone knows that ps3 is the most powerful console that you can buy. the Xbox dream 1024 in progressive mode. So shut up!
exactly when is going to be available the promised playable demo of ninja gaiden 2 in the box live marketplace because really i want to feel and to enjoy too the demo before of the release of the game itagaki promised that there will a playable demo but has not happened nothing i mean that is not yet available the downloadable and playable demo of ninja gaiden 2 in the xbox live marketplace is that i can wait anymore for to have it besides to play it absolutely i am totally sure that would be
dmc4 looks similar to gaiden,but please;to all people who aint played gaiden before... THIS IS LOTS,LOTS TOUGHER than dmc4.The better you are on gaiden,the better it looks,but dont expect to walk through it like you can on dmc4.
sorry everyone but the tonogimi said he was unhappy with the business he had with sony and that the ps3 was to complex and that he would not have ninja gaiden 2 on ps3
This game is one of the main reason's why XBOX 360 wins this console war. Microsoft will not let this game be on any system other than the 360. I hear alot of complaining and whining because this game is not on PS3, get over it and buy a 360.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
honestly it'll eventualy end up on the ps3, and I dislike alot of the games on the 360. and im not about to buy a system just for one or two games. It'll end up on the PS3, just wait a while :)
microsoft dont own team ninja TECMO does. microsoft are just doing the publishing for the 360 version. FYI DOA was on the playstation before xbox ever had it. Its almostt guaranteed gaiden 2 will hit ps3,not immeadiately but probably the same deal as gaiden sigma.let me remind you microsoft just BUY exclusive rights to franchises , they dont actually OWN most of the exclusives, so never say never...
microsoft owns basically every line of code to NG2. not to mention that itagaki said he didn't like the ps3 and will leave the game as being exclusive
yeah who cares what you guys say itll come out for PS3 sooner or later anyway hop off PS3s dick you dont have to keep sayin oooh XBOX XBOX just buy the game and play because no ones opinion is everyones opinion you like what system you like so chill the fuck out
why do you ps3 fanboys are always watching 360 videos accept the fact that the 360 has better games so go on and play resistance,and ill play gears of war played both and beaten both and resistance sucks and all other pathetic ps3 titles,sure "the red ring of death" well i have one watercooled and that is not gonna happen.
Puertorricanstar why don't you just fuck off,get a life,and grow a dick.PS3 and Xbox 360 are not better than one another just depends if you like it or not and,gears of war?Halo 3?NFL?They are like the only kind of games the 360 has.I'm not gonna argue with a fag that think he is a badass talking shit in the Interneat.So fuck you.
wat i also hope for this is to hav the choice to completely evicerate a boss. i h8 having to hav gone through sooo much crap and too see the boss just fall down and disapear. i like 2 see them pay like in god of war.
i really like how enemies look here. they look tough. i h8ed underestimating bad guys on the other ninja gaidens. the ogres and berserkers were my favs cuz they look tough. btw im talking bout non boss badguys. too bad dmc4 didnt thought of this. none of the monsters look threatning at all.
I really dont like the dismemberment in this one. It's TOO MUCH! I like Ninja Gaiden Sigma better because it's mostly just blood,not ALL THESE PIECES ON THE BATTLEFIELD, it looks annoying
For your information, I played manhunt 1 and 2, GTA's, Half life 2 gore mods, and much more. I've watched Cannibal holocaust and Brain dead. There is such a thing as OVER-GORED. I'm not scared of gore (i laugh), but seeing countless heads, torsos, legs, and etc almost more than 5 times would be a bore.
WTH !!! This is the sickest action game EVER!!! You haters need to get a life we need more epic games like this. 10/10

"Re-fighting bosses"
A:This was his last complaint which is nothing to complain about.
You fight another boss that is just like the first one, but nothing determines if it's the same one - It's a Ninja Fiend - It could be any Ninja.

"Cannot hear voice acting in some cutscenes"
A: I have no problem hearing the cutscenes, but I don't like the fact that they don't have it subtitled for those that can't hear. So I sort of agree with this one.

I was just guessing before when I was saying reviewers gave this game a high rank. - So I actually looked up sites and it's hard to find one review giving it under an 8. - I found only one that gave it a 7.3 -
It even got a 9 from three sites and an 8.7 from the well known IGN, and an 8.9 from Atomic Gamer.
I read the 7.3 reviewer and the negatives with my resposes are above.
onn1320 2 years ago
Also the game can definetely cross into cheap territory and these "professional" reviews youre talking about agree. on gamespot they say "In Ninja Gaiden II, the badly implemented camera and other factors can lead to trial-and-error repetition that relies more on dumb luck than on your controller-wielding prowess." Other sites also say things like this IGN,even the site this particular video comes from agrees on that. It can be cheap. I have more complaints but ill wait for your response first

No matter how many complaits one has - this game is still top rated. - I'm in Chapter 6 now and haven't seen the rocket man yet - But RipvanX said that he's a "soldier" not a "ninja" -
I have yet to be "annoyed" - and I have yet to win a battle by luck.
This video says a few negatives - But more positives. - Every reviewer gives it way more positived than negatives. - If it was the other way around this game would be a 3 or lower instead of a 7.5 or higher.
onn1320 2 years ago
But overall this back anbd forward between gamers is going no where. - Just look at other NG II clips on youtube and read what gamers are saying. - I am far from the only one that likes this game.
I mean it's just a fact you guys are in the lower percentage.
So what professional reviews "point out negatives." - But that means little when the Possitives out weight the negatives. - All they're saying is that the game isn't a 10, but in no way are they saying the game is a 5 or lower.

So parts like this turn into how am i going to run up the hundred feet with my melee weapons to hit this guy with infinite missiles that h can continously fire like hes got a minigun for them. The game simply has to many parts like this. fighting ninjas is fun but after the beginning you simply dont very often. I reference the title screen ryu standing alone with all the swords. the swords represent all the enemies who have given up fighting hand to hand and choose rockets instead.
emperorwiseman 2 years ago
I will agree with him. I give the game credit where it does do well but its simply annoying other times. Firstly i must ask if youve finished the game. based on your previous comment it sounded like you only played through chapter 5. If not then obviously finish it. that said i believe the rocket launcher part hes talking about occurs in the city. i dont remember what chapter but it fires a large spray of rockets and he seemingly reloads it nearly instantaneously. -continued in next comment-
emperorwiseman 2 years ago
OK - you give the game credit where it does well - but according to him - This game gets "0" credit - he even called it cheap. - And no I haven't finished it because I'm not the type of gamer that plays it 6 hours a day 7 days a week. - I might get a chance to play it maybe an hour a week.

whats the combo at 5:24 ?
mauserdemauser 2 years ago
This game is the ultimate oxymoron. Almost all the enemies shoot at you with bad camera angles. I thought Ninja Games involved using melee almost the entire time, NOT GUNS.
RipvanX 2 years ago
Well - He's fighting mostly monsters. - The few scenes in this game have a few enemies shooting explosive arrows, but I did see some clips in later chapters where they use guns, but I don't know if they're spider ninjas. - Could be they are military for he fought military enemies in the first one. - But overall - it's a good "game" - being that it's a "game" and not a ninja documentary - I can let the inaccuracy pass. Really, if you want history on ninja techniques - don't use a GAME.
onn1320 2 years ago
My point being, Ryu might as well have a gun and this should be a shooter not a Ninja game.
RipvanX 2 years ago
OK - I know what a "Shooter" is. - But there is no such thing as a "Ninja" game. -This falls under Action or Action/Adventure or maybe even Fighting. - And this game doesn't fail in any of those catagories.
Ninja Gaiden has been around since the early 90's (maybe earlier) and he's always had enemies shooting at him. - Now all of a sudden you suggest it should be a shooter because in a few Chapters he has guys shooting at him?
Just because it's a bit inaccurate to the "Ninja" style? OK..
onn1320 2 years ago
A few enemies!? MORE LIKE ALL OF THEM.
When I watched my friend playing it there were soldiers that fired rocket launchers that fired as rapidly as a machine gun! He couldn't do anything, all he could do was get raped in the ass cuz all you have is a crappy ass bow, some shurkins( which suck) ans Nympo( which is limited).
And when you say it has been around since the 90's, ino -.-
Theres a big difference from when Ninja Gaiden was in the 90's till now........ITS 3D NOW. WOAH!!!
RipvanX 2 years ago
All of them - So far I'm at the end of Chapter 5 and the only person with a gun so far was the special agent chick.
You talk about "soldiers" with rocket launchers - I remember them from the first NG. - And the point is they are Soldiers - not Ninjas. And so what your friend got raped. - That soulds to me you guys would rather an easy, non-challenging game.
3D isn't a difference as far as what we are talking about - Extra effects has nothing to do with the type of enemy you face in games.
onn1320 2 years ago
There is a difference between being challenging and being cheap. This game is cheap. When you have to start relying on luck to get past a certain part in a game its not well thought out. Im glad you accept that a soldier shooting 10 rockets at a ninja within .5 seconds of each other is acceptable when all your character can do is swing a sword. The camera is also a bad aspect of this game, so why have guys shooting at you with bad camera angels? Makes no sense and its not challenging at all.
RipvanX 2 years ago
Luck - Dude it's not luck if you know what you are doing. - I have never relied on luck in any NG game. - I learned the moves and how and when to use certain weapons/ninpo as well as defend and dodge. And Ryu can do more than just swing a sword. - And when does a soldier shot 10 rockets in .5 sec. of each other? - What chapter and which NG? -
I agree that so far up to chapter 5 in NG II - I like the original better, but NG II is far from "cheap"
onn1320 2 years ago
Go play Grand Theft Auto IV and then tell me that luck has nothing to do with a video game, lol.
RipvanX 2 years ago
Dude - this was a mature debate until you went with the name calling. - And I didn't say luck has nothing to do with a video game - I said luck has nothing to do with how I win at NG. - Yes, you can get lucky in video games and I never said you couldn't. - But Luck isn't the primary way one is successful at NG.
And negitive aspects overshadowing to good ones is once again an opinion of the lower percentage. -
It wouldn't be such a highly ranked game (by professional) - If that was true.
onn1320 2 years ago
Overall - Opinions are respected, but opinions mean little when you look at the actual ratings from magizines web sites, fans, etc.
You're in the lower percentage of people that have negative things to say about it. - If it was the other way around then I'd stop defending this game, but there's too many professional sites and magizines that say you are wrong.
onn1320 2 years ago
You want to know why I am being negative about this game? because the negative aspects overshadow the good aspects. Oh, and apparently you are one of the lower percentage of people who believe that luck has nothing to do with a video game. You are a fool.
RipvanX 2 years ago
Really dude - it's just me and you on this video page. - Go to other Ninja Gaiden II pages for the proof - It'll be so difficult to find someone that agrees with you.

If you ment Ninja Gaiden Sigma it's just a remake for the PS3 of the original Ninja Gaiden on the Xbox. Either way the story sucks, it' all about the gameplay in this game.
