Ninja Gay-den 2. Hunt for the secret lai - *FREEZE*.
 
Quote:

It has been confirmed by Gamespot Korea that, Ninja Gaiden 2, the sequel to one of the most acclaimed titles on the original Xbox, will be publicly shown to the world for the first time at this years Tokyo Game Show.

This was confirmed by an insider in the Japanese gaming industry. According to the insider, the PS3 version of the game has not been confirmed at the moment, but the game will in fact be shown for the Xbox 360 system. He further states that, the game will be shown on the Xbox platform at TGS, because of the relationship with Microsoft and the developers.

However, there is a possibility that, the game will first be released for the Xbox 360 with a PS3 version following shortly. The industry insider also states that, this game is important to Microsoft because, it has potential to increase console sales in Japan.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Finally but is seen will play it after RE5,anyway will release on PS3 after 6 years.

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.

SIX YEARS.

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.

I have PS3 and Xbox360 but I'm MS fanboy and I prefer to be exclusive for Xbox360 many years.I'm sure for that will happen.
[all itagaki games will be on xbox360 not other(only home consoles) he say alot that]

SuperSonic Aug 19, 2007 07:29 PM

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

Megalith Aug 19, 2007 07:42 PM

They should wait and release it as a 1080p native Xbox 3 launch title.

Matt Aug 19, 2007 08:19 PM

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.

Slayer X Aug 20, 2007 12:45 AM

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.

SuperSonic Aug 22, 2007 04:56 PM

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?

Hantei Aug 24, 2007 03:44 AM

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.

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

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.

eprox1 Sep 12, 2007 05:53 PM

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...?

Ninja Gaiden II Producer: We'll finish the game as we want, then cosider the ESRB rating:

Quote:

Ninja Gaiden II producer Yoshifuru Okamoto recently dicussed the games glittering violence in reference to a possible dreaded AO rating. Okamoto commented that during the start of development, the team didn't take into account possible ratings. He believes that it is best for the team to produce the game as they wish and then work out any potential ratings issues later. But Okamoto noted that the game will be localized depending on the territory and they have the ability to adjust violent aspects where needed.

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.

Bad news for me even when the USA demo is released. It looks like several XBLA games and demos detect your ISP and won't let you download even if you have a USA/Japan account. I can't buy any of the Xbox Originals, Smash TV, Penny Arcade, Gears of War DLC, and some demos like Crackdown.
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.

Itagaki Leaving Team Ninja, Suing Tecmo
Quote:

"To All Game Fans

"I truly feel sorry to all the fans of the games I have made. Ninja Gaiden 2, which will launch on the 3rd of June will be the last Ninja Gaiden I will create. I will also never be able to make Dead or Alive 5. I regret the circumstances that have forced me to leave Tecmo, where I had worked for so many years, and I regret the disappointment this will cause my fans. However, I can no longer continue to work with President Yoshimi Yasuda, a man who chooses not to honor promises even when he is able to do so. I truly hope that nothing like this happens again in the future."
Wow. Broken promises? I know he was supposedly absolutely pissed about Sigma's release on the PS3, I can only wonder if he found out word of Sigma 2 finding it's way there as well.

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?

Rotorblade Jun 3, 2008 11:23 AM

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:.

Jessykins Jun 3, 2008 02:53 PM

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.

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.

Dark Nation Jun 7, 2008 05:53 PM

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.

This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. It's more than numerous flaws can be easily overcome in a lot of areas, but in others, they become so readily apparent that they suck the fun out of this faster than the speed you shoot down the Live leaderboards.

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.

DesertEase Jun 13, 2008 03:22 PM

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.

Jurassic Park Chocolate Raptor Jun 21, 2008 02:54 PM

http://colonelskills.belkanairforce....I/IMG_3885.jpg

HMMMM.

SuperSonic Jun 21, 2008 04:37 PM

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.

Jurassic Park Chocolate Raptor Jun 22, 2008 12:41 AM

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.
