Bahh, I can't hope of playing the demo since the moral monkeys here in germany don't like violence. But nice to read some impressions here. Can't wait till my copy arrives. Just hope my store gets them early, then I can play it as soon as the americans do. ;)
Move out of Germany. :p

I got 3 more things to say about the game...

1. Bring my got damn NG Sigma backflip back!
They should have made NG2 make you dash only forward, but also keep the backflip and roll on the sides for evading. The one hand backflip was awesome to look at.

2. The music in this game, great stuff, can't wait for the full OST!

3. NG2's ninjas are a bunch of shuriken abusers, they won't stop throwing at you!

PS. sorry for the people who can't download the demo anymore.

Haha. I would move to Italy, or Southern France, or Greece. Hell, anywhere near the Mediterranean region. But, thankfully I'm fine where I live. :D

Oh, btw, USA/EU demo coming out by the end of this week most likely.

Here is GTs video review
http://www.gametrailers.com/player/34661.html HD

So much nitpicky it is ridiculous.
Not only that but he spoils Joe Hayabusa's role in the game (motherf****r, I didnt want to know).
And it is Ru-you not Rae-you.

Good enough for me. I can't wait to get my game. It's a shame they gave it that. Hell they gave Lost Odyssey a 8.8, which was a bit high.

No game deserves a 10, no game is perfect. Anyway, I was referring to gametrailers review system. They gave Lost Odyssey a 8.8 when it deserved lower. Their scoring system is all over the place.

It is the small nitpicks that I hated from this review.

Like bosses not having some sort of a guide to kill them, like wtf?
The previous title was EXACTLY like this. You had to figure out how to kill them, an with what weapon.

And what pissed me off was that he spoiled one thing I have been trying to avoid all the time until I get the game, which was about Joe Hayabusa.

That is true, I can come up with a few problems with NG2, but they are not major that ruins the gameplay.

I bet that once the game is out and Master Ninja vets starts recording their videos, it will look lightyears better than any video these gamesites puts up.

Never cared about reviews anyways, so whatever.

10/10 isn't generally reserved for perfect games.

Well, 10 usually refers to PERFECT. 100% on a test usually means you're perfect. :p ETC! >_>

It doesn't generally refer to perfect in this case though. Most publications would like us to believe that 10 just means really fuck'n great. ;)

I was being sarcastic tho.. I actually think every game should get a 4-5/10 just to piss fan(boys) off :P

Hmm no NG2 demo for other regions? Oh well I already played the full game yesterday and this morning :) Only played 2 of the first levels and a bit third one. Seems like a really great game. I like how there is more enemies at the same time trying to kill you and seems like they attack more fierce than in NGB too. Also UT can kill at least 8 people, crazy stuff.

Game seemed to be really easy at the beginning. First boss was a joke and second didn't take that much longer either :p well I only played with that warrior difficulty so it will get better after that setting for sure. Can't wait to get my own copy in the next week or so.

Damn you Iso...how did you manage to play the full game?
Don't tell me you or your friend downloaded the torrent version :S

Well that first boss Ratesu is the same boss you will meet later again, I think 3 times?

I wish i had the full game right now :P

Demo is good, but nothing compared to the full one.

Every new xbox live account comes with 30 days of Gold.
????? On every 360 i've had (including this one) I've only been able to create up to 3 accounts that give me the free 30 day GOLD membership. After that I only get SILVER for free, there's no longer any menu saying "You get 30 days Free Gold" or whatever.

o well, screw it. ill just wait on the game.

are my the only one who thinks sigma harmed this game( in reviews thats is)

i mean a port/remake got higher scores than the sequal. doesn't make sense considering the things their critisizing NG2 for e.g its the same as the first one, same camera problems, difficult level. yet Ng2 has improved on this yet get lower scores than sigma which is exactly like the original gaiden

That is how it works. Each console have 3-4 free GOLD membership for 1 month when creating account (does not matter for what region).

Because NG Sigma had backflip! haha

But seriously, people had high expectations for sequal, simple as that.

The most funny thing about GT review is that he said, NG2 has no multiplayer...since when does NG need one.

Sure NG for Xbox was a graphical showcase for the console, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't hold up. I have compared NG Sigma to NG2, and all I got to say is that NG2 has a bit more features going on with its visuals.

And the other thing I want to point out that was ridiculous of GT to bring up was that the enemies did not have any guidelines how to beat a boss.

Is that guy new to the franchise? it seems so.
If he has studied NG good he would know that non of the bosses on the previous title had some sort of a guide on how to beat them. The only way you could beat them was to you using all your fighting skills to bring them down, at all cost.

Doesn't matter what weapon or ninpo...etc. just kill them, simple.
