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.
Well, Sigma - even though it wasn't put into words - I'll bet my fortune (which isn't terribly big, but still - symbolic!) was a trojan horse to get their engine up and running perfectly on Sony hardware, aswell as setting up a fanbase for an NG2 on there. It might take a while, but 2 will slip right into the leather pants that Sigma's walked in no doubt.
Which is actually rather exciting - it'll certainly put pressure on Capcom to not slack off in regards to DMC, which - despite a pretty hardcore third entry - has always been less tight than the nun's bottom that was NG/Black.

Well, Sigma is really good looking technically, it's just that the settings in the first game are pretty dull overall. The best bits are really the very beginning and the end of it, and the inbetween is just.... I dunno.. "functional" I guess.
If the settings in the DS game are anything to go by, there'll be more organic bits this time, and hopefully a bit more contrast between different hues, colour or not.
This was ultimately bound to look a lot like Sigma.
This has to do with something with NG 2...enjoy the "time bomb" :D
I for one will have that site open at all time as the time counts down my anticipation grows.
Now if you people excuse me, im off to play Ninja Gaiden Sigma :P :D

Ninja Gaiden was simply addictive right until the end!
Fingers crossed for co-op!!!
This time they better not remove the decapititations from the PAL version, otherwise I will be forced to get my 360 modded :(

Commented on 2007-09-11 13:58:20One of the biggest NG fans arrives (me)
I most definitely didn't expect NG2 today, it didn't even cross my mind.
Okay lets see, what do we got.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma graphics are not threatened at all, and I LOVE NG Sigmas graphics.
But it all comes down to gameplay and that is what NG is all about.
I see Ryu has equiped Iron Claw, nice...feels like melee attack to me, up and personal deadly "punches".
In terms of outfit for Ryu, I expected a bit more "different" not the default black batman leather outfit, hopefully you can get others.
I do like the chopped everything off, legs, heads, a freakin body...etc. nice.
I hope to see more interactive environment to NG2.
nice to see it but I want more :P
Anyway, can't wait for TGS, gonna be AWESOME to see this, more of DMC4 and hopefully much more of RE5!
