[PS3] Teenage Mutant Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2

This is definitely one of my most anticipated games at the moment, so I'll probably be picking it up as soon as it comes out. I really enjoyed the first game, and this one looks to be just as good.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Demo is up on the Jap store now, and it'll be up on the US store on the 24th (the Japanese demo has options for full English though, so there's really no reason not to get it a week early if you're looking forward to trying it out).

I enjoyed the demo immensely, and definitely have no qualms about pre-ordering the fame. Just like the first NGS, it was challenging but fun, the kind of challenge that you feel satisfied whenever you do beat. The first stage with Ryu was pretty easy for the most part, though the boss battle at the end took me more than a few times to beat. As for Ayane, I thought she played pretty well (almost not different enough than Ryu), and I think overall she'll be a good addition to the game.

As for the Team Challenges, it sucks that you can only play them with the CPU and not a real player (have to wait for the full game for that), but they were still a lot of fun. I didn't dabble too much with the missions in the original Sigma, but I can see myself taking all of these on because I can see the co-op being pretty damn fun. Having a partner to watch your back adds another layer to the gameplay, as you can revive your fallen partner and you can cast magic together that makes it more devastating.

Can't believe the game is less than two weeks away already. I'm definitely ready for it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
