The trailer will surely kick some serious ass.They are always good in making good trailers.
Game will be long way off, and 360 needs to fix hardware issues first before making any games. There are buckets of fried 360's now and number is only increasing. |

Wow. That's a long time to wait if you're a Sony fanboy. The console will pretty much be on it's last legs by then. Why even bother. I'm pretty sure that this game will be a) awesome and b) too hard for me to complete, just like the first one. |

[all itagaki games will be on xbox360 not other(only home consoles) he say alot that] |
YES!! The first Ninja Gaiden was one of the best games I had ever played. Let's hope the sequel can do just as well, and here's hoping for the return of some characters like Ayane. :D
|
They should wait and release it as a 1080p native Xbox 3 launch title.
|
They'll do that anyway, Megatroll. It'll be called Ninja Gaiden 2 Black Moon Sword or some ridiculous shit in that vain.
This is good news if it is in fact true. I'll wait until I see the TGS trailer to get excited, but I really really hope they are making it. I've been waiting for news on a new Gaiden since I beat the original XB game a scant three years ago. |
I'm just wondering if they're going to use the Sigma engine or a whole new one. My bets or on a Sigma 2.0 engine though. Team Ninja likes milking things... BIG TIME.

Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch, Fuck shit ass bitch,
|
All right. I know I get on people's bad sides but this guy doesn't even try to justify his shit. BAN please?
|
Back on topic, I'm wondering what the new story is gonna be. I want to bet that it has something to do with what Ryu destroyed at the end of the first Ninja Gaiden, and in doing so...released the evil that was within it. That's too easy though so I guess we're in the dark, at least I am, until TGS. Is that in September?
|
Oooh, interesting. I wonder if they're going to bring in Ryu's father for the sequel, maybe the game's story will revolve around him... Perhaps his father is murdered this time and he's out for revenge again? Be cool if they could bring Hayate too, possible co-op mode.
|
Hey ryu rejoice

That's pretty much what I expected. An enhanced version of the Sigma engine. However Sigma did look great with the only issue with me being the blood decals that stuck in mid-air at times. However it looks like they've fixed that with animated blood now. I just hope my 360 will live long enough to play this game ^^ Can't wait
(Hack & Slash hybrids are FINALLY a hit genre, BOO YA!) |
Haha holy shit. Team Ninja must have picked up a copy of Oneechanbara X.

Coolest thing in the trailer is its faked cropping that allows for the scythe to pop out. Very creative.
I still don't get why Team Ninja is fascinated with dipping everything in all their games in a giant vat of plastic though. =/ |
I wonder if this NG sequel for the X360 will be as impressive as Ninja Gaiden 2 for the NES. That game was fucking marvelous.
|
Dang. So because Microsoft is publishing this game, is there absolutely no chance of one of the inevitable re-issues of this game at least going multi-platform :(? I'm kind of surprised that the PS3 somehow got Sigma and the 360 didn't...and now the other way around...?

It's definitely gotten a lot more brutal. I dont remember cleaving that many bodies in half when I played the first one.
|
Supposedly all the limbs are supposed to be removable in this one IGN reports.
|
I remember reading that they were using a completely new game engine to run the game. Does anyone know of any knew features this engine includes, outside of hacking limbs?

I don't think that this game is any more violent or bloody then Soldier of Fortune, so I think it'll be alright.
|
For Tecmos Action spiel Ninja Gaiden 2 does not give it plans for a multi-player mode. That writes the EGM. Release: Spring 2008 (the USA)

Refresh the page and it'll pop up in all its ten bazillion x fifty quadbillion resolution glory!
|
That is a very.. typically dull cover. "I AM WALKING SOMEWHERE.. HERE. THIS IMAGE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE GAME NOR IS IT GOOD LOOKING"
Oh well. |
It's not bad. A little too much white space and lack of colour for my taste though. Also it kind of sucks that it's from the trailer scene, no biggie just kind of a "huh?" thing.
However like I say, you play the game, not the case so I'm not going to make a fuss or overly critique a game box. |

This whole bloody and hardcore art direction that they're taking is idiotic.

I just realised this game is coming out any week now. I never played through the original Ninja Gaiden for Xbox (shame), but I'm pretty damn excited anyway. I'm thinking about buying NG: Black through XB Live for warm up. EDIT: hueg bouncan tits. |
For a ninja gaiden 2 thread, there is a sore lack of badassery going on. 8 days niggas!
|
And yet we're still waiting on that demo. Supposedly coming out in May. Which has only 5 days left. :annoyed:
|
Why do you need a demo of Ninja Gaiden?
|
To...try it before he buys it?
Novel concept, that. |
Jesus, I think I'm going to buy this game based on the blood alone. It's so beautiful and satisfying. I already know I'm going to get Project O.R.I.G.I.N for the most beautiful gore and blood effects I have ever seen in a videogame.

What weapons are you guys excited about? I'm really looking forward to the scythe and the claws. They look so awesome.

Demo up on the JP marketplace. Played it, Love it. More anxious.

I'm downloading now,and who want to know how make to JP XBL Account:
[360] How to make a Japan/Euro region account on Xbox Live |
It should be noted that you need a GOLD account to download the demo.
And there is some weird region protection on it. Even with a Gold Japanese account, I can't grab it. Could be locked out of Canada. Wouldn't be the first time. |
Quote:
Not that I need the demo to buy the game anyways, but since i have to wait for a month for the game to arrive, I was kinda hoping to get it to warm up a little :(. Thanks Microsoft for supporting third world countries. |
Quote:
|
Ah, shit.
Maybe they changed the download permissions halfway through, because I know Toku and that smelly fuck Rotor managed to get it. Guess it's completely YMMV at this point. |
Rotorblade's BITCH ASS is the one who told me to get it this way. That mother fucker. I'm coming for your blood, Eric. I'm fucking coming for it.
|
IT SHOULD WORK FOR YOU, SKILLS IS IN CANADA!

In preparation of NGII leaderboard awesomeness, We should all add each other on xbl. Tokubetsu is my tag.

Itagaki Leaving Team Ninja, Suing Tecmo
Quote:
I'm still a little confused on the whole publishing thing, though. Microsoft published NGII, but does that mean another company can publish NGII: Sigma? |
Apparently they're not paying him bonuses or his due. Honestly, considering that guy carried that company, in spite of how any one might feel about how he's pretty much an ass in his interviews, the only reason most people think of Tecmo is either Ninja Gaiden or Dead or Alive. Fatal Frame and Monster Rancher are pretty obscure in comparison, and to kind of shit on your one man cash machine is pretty foolish.
If that's the case here and Itagaki isn't just :mad:. |
Yeah, that IS actually pretty stupid. However, considering how badly you trounced my ass in DOA4, I think I won't mourn the loss of it.
ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: TEN LOSSES IN A ROW. |
Achievement Unlocked: Jess Rape
"Beat Jess Ten Times in a Row in an Online Match" |
Quote:
It means microsoft game studios paid quite a bit of the developmental costs of Ninja Gaiden II. So there is very little chance of any variation of NGII coming to the triple. If it does, prepare for Tecmo to be hit with a possible company destroyin' lawsuit. |
So awesome! We need a gamerip stat too.
|
For those starting out, there's an achievement for getting through the game using only one melee weapon (Using the Bow & Arrow doesn't count), meaning you don't switch out to anything else. Just a quick heads up if you wanted to do that.
I just got the game a couple days ago but I've barely started playing so I'm only on Chapter 2. Pretty fun so far, but of course, difficult in a few areas. |
I really think if you don't absolutely love this game despite it's faults you're gigantic bleeding vagina. There are no exceptions.
|
Stab motherfucker in the neck. Rip head from body violently. Get hit. Take damage... camera betrays you. "Press RT." DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN!
I love this game. |
Quote:
Oh wow, cool a snow level! HOLY SHIT ROCKET SPAM WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING OH MY GOD ARE THOSE DEMON MECHS WHERE ARE THEY SPAMMING THESE ROCKETS FROM GBALRHARAGAHFA. So awesome. |
Quote:
The camera is the biggest culprit by a mile and a half. I don't understand how it's terrible for EVERY BOSS FIGHT. Every single one. There's only one enemy to focus on for the most part, why does this not function properly? Jesus. There are other issues both technically and logistically, but I'm going to finish this first to see if they improve or worsen before drawing final judgement. |
Quote:
|
I can live with most of the flaws including the frame drops(sometimes it looks awesome).
But the god damn freezing during boss battles, and motherfucking freezing right after absolutely destroying Genshin with his explosive shuriken homies feels like a kick in the balls. I was ready to slap Itagaki's teeth out after the game froze reloading the level after a test of valor. |
Really makes me wonder if they did any QA on this broken shit at all.
http://colonelskills.belkanairforce....I/IMG_3885.jpg HMMMM. |
Hate to ask this Skills, but what exactly is happening in there? Are you not supposed to have 10 of those things? I've put the game on hold for another, but after I beat that one I plan on coming back to this one.
|
No. There's only 9 of the things in the game.
From the life bar, you can tell I used 7 (in addition to two full increases from the regular life of the Gods). I have 10, now, after the fact. And I can't even use two of them to make my life bar the full length. I get an error noise. I also have three more jewels of the demon seal than I can't possibly use. All my ninpo is at max level. That's just an example of the bugs I've dealt with. In addition, there's been a few cases where I've fallen through the geometry. One time I was wall running and got stuck in a pillar. Was basically stuck there until a werewolf hit me out. There was another time I got stuck in a wall in a cave. Enemies have refused to spawn for the Rod of Trials on the playthrough I started for the claws only achievement (I abandoned this playthrough and did the scythe one instead after this happened.) I have had it freeze attempting to load stages, freeze in the loading of a cutscene, and freeze LOADING THE DAMN LEADERBOARDS. There have been situations where I had to do a hard reset because an enemy didn't spawn that needed to to continue. There's bugs galore in this and it's fucking disgusting. It's a shame too, because the combat is just so DAMN FUN and rewarding in and of itself. And I won't even get started on it's other, non-technical flaws, either. There's a LOT it does right, but there's so little polish or effort put into making it a great overall experience that the whole thing feels cheapened. And it's really, really sad. |
Sounds like this game is a touch on the broken side. Glad I wasn't worried about picking it up then.
|
That's the thing though. It's not totally and completely broken. It's perfectly playable, but there are a large amount of niggling problems that really, REALLY wear down your enthusiasm for it.
I appreciate what it did with combat over the first game enough that I slogged through it, twice. When it works, it works really well. It becomes hilarious, fun, and funny. But when it doesn't, it frustrates like no other. Be it the camera or one of several other non-technical issues either, you can and will get annoyed. It's just such a shame, since it IS worth playing through at least once. It IS rewarding when you get into the groove. It's just not great. |
