The editors didn't like

  • Persistent death by bad camera angle
  • Inconsistent difficulty will aggravate even the hardcore
  • Token puzzle-solving punctuates utter linearity The Final Word Its a slick game
  • But nowhere near as good as what fans have been hoping for.
  • Inconsistent level of difficulty sometimes crosses the line into cheap territory
  • Infuriating camera

  • Beyond being easier and ‘more accessible’ Ninja Gaiden hasn’t really evolved these last few years. Not the game we had hoped for. 7.3/10Print this pageUser reviews (0)Share this pageNoticed something wrong? Report error/mistake....

  • Graphics, fight dynamics, pace, plenty of gore, weapons
  • Storyline somewhat comical, missing a key can lead to tedious backtracking
  • With thick and fast action, Ninja Gaiden II will appeal to fans of fighting games across the board

  • Gory, slice and dice combat, Easyaccess submenu, Punishing difficulty makes victory that much sweeter
  • Horrible camera that gets stuck behind things, Lousy level graphics don't jibe with prettylooking gore, Punishing difficulty makes victory nighimpossible

  • Abstract:  Ninja Gaiden 2 is Tomonobu Itagaki’s Team Ninja swansong, as just after the initial launch he left Tecmo and filed a lawsuit against them citing unpaid bonuses for Dead or Alive 4. The first 3D Ninja Gaiden on Xbox was one of the hardest games in recen...

  • Fluid combat, absolutely awesome visuals, intuitive controls, insane boss fights and a horde of sharp weapons. Everything you could ask for in a ninja title!
  • Camera angles are terrible, some of the cut-scenes waffle on a bit, storyline is a bit light.

  • Abstract:  Ninja Gaiden (the recent series, not the 16-bit era side scroller) kicked off in fine form on the Xbox, back in 2004. Its combination of ninja action and ludicrous difficulty made it something of a fan favorite. So much so, in fact, that the same game ...

  • Boasts the deepest, fastest, most gruesome combat on the planet, Is simpler than previous NG games, Satiates the gore hound within, Falcons Talons are without doubt the best weapons ever devised
  • Can be painfully tough at times, Platforming sections suck, Camera can be problematic
  • Ninja Gaiden has the distinction of being known as one of the toughest games ever made. Its various iterations (Ninja Gaiden Black for the Xbox and Ninja Gaiden Sigma for the PlayStation 3) were tougher than the original game and brought even the most ...

  • Abstract:  THERE is blood on the dance floor and dismembered limbs aplenty. As master ninja Ryu Hayabusa, thats what you do all day in Ninja Gaiden 2 - execute your dances of death as you cut rival ninjas and demons down to size (quite literally) and hack off th...

  • Eine entführte Frau, ein maskierter Held, der Retter in der Not, nein nicht Zorro, sondern wieder Ryu Hayabusa. Die flache Story trübt bei Ninja Gaiden 2 keinesfalls. Mit schick gerenderten Movies wird man in die Geschichte eingeführt und darf dazwisc...
