Images of Ninja Gaiden 2
2007-09-11 13:28:04 by Snoopers
A few days before the Tokyo Games Show, Tecmo and Microsoft unveil the very bloody first images of Ninja Gaiden 2, for the moment still a Xbox 360 exclusive. Graphically, Sigma has nothing to be ashamed of for now.

It looks good. But i don't care how it looks as long as it plays as good as black! I've been waiting for this for a long time now, so yeah...finally we get something about NG2. New weapons. The claws looks pretty neat, especially considering that he has blades on his feet too, i can just hope for some long combos there :)
As for comparing it with sigma i do think this looks better. I only played the demo of sigma but i found it to look pretty bad with all the bloom going on everywhere and well...i honestly never thought that Gaiden really needed a remake. NG black still looks good, and most of all, it still plays incredibly well.

the gore and severing limbs looks fun and messy :P, but im guessing it will still be a boring hack n slash, not my thing, backgrounds look a bit iffy so far, hopefully they'll fix that.

Megido - How can you say this looks "better" than Sigma. If anything it is the same, if not Sigma is looking better...now, but its hard to compare really.
And saying NG didnt need a remake is a bit off there.
NG Sigmas purpose is to let others that didn't have an Xbox or didnt got the chance to play NG on Xbox to play it on PS3.
But I have really checked out on these NG2 images carefully, and I can say I expected a bit more, especially when Itagaki said they were going with a bit different art style.
It feels that they have borrowed the NG Sigma engine to make this game.
PS. Ah the leg claws...didn't notice them until ou mentioned it...nice. Kind of like cat scratching hehe.
But any, I can't wait to see the first glimpse of the game in motion though :).

graphically doesn't look that much better than Sigma(not a bad thing). Still, just happy to finally see images of the game. Ryu is getting ready for more pwnage!
Also, I'm not seeing the "lose their motivation." Oh yes, I went there :P

Co-op is a must, its the only thing that holds me back from playing NG over and over. Just imagine Hayate teaming up Ryu & Ayane !!

Why can't some of you wait for a proper video before you start comparing it to a game that's already finished.

Megido
I think that the bloom really adds quite alot in NG sigma, I especially loved it in DOA4 in some levels like the last one with the gele boss. I always took that level and chose Ryu just to see how great the graphics was and it was amazing.
But in NG Sigma in some levels it has that and I think its awesome.
But like I said, the only reason they made NGSigma is maybe for more money (seems so) and a wider audience, which leads to more money, and that other console gamers such as PS3 gamers can enjoy the Ninja Gaiden universe, samething that happened with DMC4.
But yeah the remake from NG to NG Black is that NG Black is a expansion from a downlable content that people couldnt download, so they made a "remake" which actually is a expansion pack on disc so you could buy it at the retails with lower price except full price of a game.
Co-op is a must, its the only thing that holds me back from playing NG over and over. Just imagine Hayate teaming up Ryu & Ayane !!
I always wanted online co-op for Ryu and Hayate together, if not Hayate OR ayane, some other bad ass "ninja" character to go along with the journey of death with me :P.
But heres the thing though, I have seen the images, looks cool, but its all in the motions, in terms of if they have added new weapons, new animations, new enemy animations, new features...etc. all that should be shown in the motion.
I quite frankly doubt we will get to see something long long gameplay footages on NG2, but I hope atleast a long trailer, and not some 20 seconds teaser with NG2 title fades in and its done.
I hope its as cool as NG Sigma trailer once it was shown :D.

Finally......
As far as i'm concerned this can look exactly like the original Xbox title and i would still go out and buy it if the gameplay was as strong.
