Ninja Gaiden is a sweet game, but I would have to go with MGS4. Everyone on here is going to say NG2 because this is the 360 board, but MGS is a great franchise, and MGS4 is the final installment in that franchise.

Ninja Gaiden II is the final installment too and it's also a great franchise.

I'd easily pick Ninja Gaiden II because I'm such an immense fan of the previous ones.

MS$ is only good for people who followed the story, you would probly get confused about what was goin on, mgs has a very complex story, how ever ninja gaiden is one of my favorite games of all time, and i like its gameplay more than mgs

Well if you haven't played any of MGS games then there is a possibility you won't enjoy the game, although its controls seem to be improved. You like Ninja Gaiden so go with Ninja GAiden2. I will be buying both games for the respective consoles. I am a huge MGS fan so if i had money for only one, it would be MGS. If you are worried about not knowing the story of MGS, don't be. They have added new cinematics that explain the backstory of each thing referenced to, all you have to do is press a button and you will be up to date.

MGS4 single handedly made me buy a PS3. I prefer the 360, but I just couldn't miss out on the ending to my favorite gaming franchise.

I don't see how you can compare two totally different games which are on different consoles........:?

GGD or SW is more appropriate for this kind of thread.

Both series are great. Also I'm pretty sure both MGS4 and NG2 will be great. But I'm a big MGS fan so MGS4 by a longshot.

So far MGS is the reason I will buy a PS3 and is the reason one of my friends bought one.

Same here, there are some other titles I want on the PS3 but most of them don't come out until late this year or next year. As for multiplats I prefer to buy them on the 360 because of achievement's and better online( some titles)

I'm getting both games because they are both incredible but I'd have to go with Metal Gear Solid over Ninja Gaiden if i had to choose. Btw there will be a bonus disc with Metal Gear Solid 4 that will cover the backstory of the previous games for people who have not played them.

Since when was NG2 the final installment? But I'd say MGS4, gameplay differences aside MGS has the most cinematic story of any video game. Literally like watching an epic movie. In contrast NG for the Xbox seemed like a 12 year old took a rejected script from an 80s low budget anime, added in his own creative flair and then penned a 3 and half page script filled with brief cheesey dialouge played by terrible actors.

MGS- My favorite franchise on the Playstation. NG- My favorite game on the original Xbox. I would pick MGS4 just because its ana amazing series that will come to an end in what looks to be epic way, but for you I would recommend NG2 seeing as you have played the first and know what to expect. MGS is a very complex series which requires you to play the previous 3 to enjoy the final installment the way it was meant to be enjoyed.

It comletely depends on your gameplay preference. For non-stop action and blood soaked screens, choose Ninja Gaiden. For slower gameplay and an engaging story, choose MGS4. personally, find MGS boring.

That's the hardest question any1 could have asked to me because I bought my ps3 back in july 2007 because of Ninja Gaiden Sigma it breaks my heart to see the sequel going to 360.Also I've played the 3 MGS so it's very hard and if I hadn't either a ps3 or an xbox360 that would be a very hard decision.Anyway I would stick with MGS4 and even more if you are chosing between console because you can play the first in the ps3 and pray to the gods the sequel gets ported Lol.Thta's what I'm doing xD

I like both games. But the thing is, MGS4 can be played once but after you know the story there is not enough to go back to. The gameplay has never been that great that you can give the gameplay alone a spot in your top 5 games. Ninja Gaiden will never leave my top 1 spot for gameplay for that matter. The story sucks but in the end you can play Ninja Gaiden over and over again and is remains exciting. It remains challenging. It remains awesome. It remains what it is. So personally, I'd go with Ninja Gaiden just because I will get much more playing hours out of it. Plus, it's just more a game for me. Awesome, challenging games are my #1 pick. MGS4 is cool and all but it doesn't have awesome action like NG has.

Choice made.
