2007-09-12 07:25:01 IGN's impressions of the live stage demo 10:00: This is real-time footage running on actual hardware, applause starts in the balcony once again. The Team Ninja logo appears. The director of the game will be playing as Itagaki narrates. Stage selection shows 8 stages! He says they are pretty far along in development -- Aqua Castle is the name of the stage they pause on. They were going to show a Japanese-themed castle but they had a little incident withe screens getting out, so they wanted to show something new, so they are gonna show Aqua Castle. Stage looks like venice. 10:02: Booming orchestral music sounds awesome, Ryu is fighting about 5 other ninjas. He chops off one guys head, and then chops his body in half before it can fall over. Blood is everywhere! He's comboing and collecting orbs. After one encounter, he runs along the stage and over a bridge over the canal. His ninja magic just chops everyone to pieces -- 15 hit combo! he swipes the scythe before putting it back to get the blood off it, and now he's running through a marketplace. Lots of fruit and barrels in the stands along side smash as he hits them. Yellow orbs float from dead bodies for him to collect. 10:05: He brings up a menu in the lower left to shirt between main and secondary throwing weapons. Now, in the next area, he faces enemies with guns and cannons -- some launch rockets at him. He summons magic and lights one of them one fire, they scream as they walk around on fire until collapsing. Pieces of bodies are just flying everywhere. 10:07: Looks similar to Ninja Gaiden Sigma in overall graphical fidelity -- but with more going on. Now, two giant winged creatures attack. He bring out the Wolverine-like claws to take them on. Another 16 hit combo, and he swipes off the blood and gets moving again. Here comes a boss! A giant spider like mutant drops and it fades to black as the logo reappears with the tagline "vengeance begins 2008." Itagaki thanks the audience and takes his leave to more applause. --- |

2007-09-12 08:17:41 The story leads you through a 30-hour story mode as you skillfully maneuver Ryu Hayabusa through a demonized world fraught with peril and danger. Featuring a newly implemented auto-healing functionality and save point system, as well as an extensive story mode and multiple difficulty levels available from the start of the game, the gameplay is accessible to more casual players and challenging to even the most demanding gamers. Sounds good to me. --- |

Sounds good to me. 30 hours? 30 hours of stress of Very Hard and Master Ninja difficaulty? wow! One thing that I want Itagaki to do with the items and weapon selection is that we should be able to switch weapons anytime in gameplay and not go through menu, its a bit tiring to do so. And I thought the item choosing for NG Sigma was great were you choose your items such as elixir and the ninpo power orbs with the d-pad, quick and simple. The only thing I don't like about NG2 is...that big weapon like grim reaper, not my kind. I was hoping for like another cool katana or sword like weapon. Anyway, weapons of choosing, that wont be mine. --- |

2007-09-12 09:33:20 all about this game sounds cool. Now locations do not look as claustrophobic, which is very cool. Also 30 hours of gameplay, cutting off limbs --- |

2007-09-12 09:44:26 Well with all that blood and body parts, I am worried about the European version. --- |

2007-09-12 10:06:12 In reply to RAZurrection (2007-09-12 10:05:26) Posted by RAZurrection Kinda, they aren't part of MGS, but MS have spoken before about assisting Tecmos publishing of their Xbox/360 games, they've definitely assisted. |
| szaromir Since 1291 Days |
2007-09-12 10:14:25 IIRC NG and DOAs were published in Japan and NA by Tecmo and by Microsoft in Europe... Now Microsoft is a direct publisher, so that changes things a bit. --- |
