They're both essentially the same thing, not neccessarily but they're very similar.

From the two I think Devil May Cry is the better game imo.

Ninja Gaiden 2 definetly. The games a lot harder, the bosses are cooler, and the games so much bloodier and violent. Its just awesome.

Ng2 for the most because all of the gore and action but if your a fan of DMC and you would like a good action game with a good story then take DMC4 because NG2 basically has no story whatsoever:P i mean you will be saying WTF? the entire game but between these WTF'S the action and gore is so worth it from chopping heads off to legs with all the blood.

I have to say DMC4 by a long shot. Probably because I am a noob. But Ninja Gaiden games kick my ass so hard up the **** wall that it is just past the point of fun.

Most definitely prefer Ninja Gaiden 2. DMC4 was the worst DMC game, imo. Even worse that DMC2...

I dob't understand how anyone could choose NG2 over DMC4. NG2's combat feels broken. You'll spend most of your time blocking on the higher difficulty levels, then getting hit and juggled by off screen enemies. True, it may be more difficult than Devil May Cry, but it's cheap difficulty, while DMC's takes skill.Try Hell or Hell mode on DMC4 and you'll see what I mean. The levels are ugly in NG2 too, as are the bosses, it's not that great looking (The Venice level is an exception though). DMC4 isn't perfect though. The game has a LOT of backtracking, so be prepared. But I've gotten 50 hours out of it so far, going through all the modes. DMC4 has style and substance, the combat's deep and freeform. NG2's combat isn't terrible, but it pails in comparison to DMC. There may be ore gore, but there's much less fun. There are demos for both on the Marketplace if you need help deciding, as you can see people have varying opinions of the games.

DMC4 was the boringest DMC game I ever played. I felt like all I had done in the game was wander around hallways and backtracking.

Ninja Gaiden 2, best action game on the 360. DMC4 is one of my favourite games, it has a good story, awesome characters, great graphics but nothing comes close to NG2. :D

I preferred NG2, but i have DMC4. Currently, i'm on human mode (NOOB ALERT) as Dante, getting my head around juggling as him. Nero seems way more intuative.

However, I'd defo reccomend DMC4, great game, and the cutscenes make me laugh! :D

I prefered the combat in NG2 it was more enjoyable and looked better in my opinion. Although if you are a fan of DMC n that kind of combat go for it. Although get ready to hate the main character, Nero, with a burning passion.

both great slasher games, if u love mashing buttons doing endless moves killing endless amounts of people and nailing jumps bang on then get both coz they both top games in that style of game. i felt like ninja was the best out of the 2 but to be honest theys not much in it between either, both have they pros and cons in diff areas. worth getting both now they a year old and cheap

It all dependson how difficult you want your game to be, I'm playing through warrior mode on NG2 at the moment (the second hardest difficulty) and I feel like it's harder than DMD mode on DMC 4 which I had a little trouble with but not nearly as much level restarting as NG. Also in DMC the most you'll be pitted against is 4 or 5 enemies at once and thats only in a couple parts of the game. In NG2 you'll constantly feel like your fighting a mob of enemies. Also whether you prefer gore or story. Ninja Gaidens story might as well not even have dialogue its literally not understandable the plot (if you can call it that...) is complete garbage. DMC 4 has a decent plot, it's still a bit on the cheesy side not as much so as DMC 3 but its definitely not as serious and badass as DMC 1 was. I'd say it's somewhere in between.

 

Bottom line is Ninja Gaiden has bloodier combat and sick fatalty moves.

Devil May Cry has the lovable Devil Trigger and Nero (whom I actually grew to like as a newcomer to the series) has the Devil Bringer which is also a blast to use. 

 

Difficulty-wise

NG2>>>DMC4

Plot-wise

DMC4>>>NG2

Boss Fights*

DMC4>>>>>>>>NG2

*Who wants a bunch of minions running around annoying the crap out of you while your trying to fight a boss? Plus NG2 bosses are wierd looking and often the size of many of the fiends you'll see throughout the levels. DMC has epic boss fights with enormous beautifully rendered bosses and its just plain fun, NG seems like I'm dreading the next boss fight more than I'm excited for it.

 

In the end the choice is yours, but just a little extra tid bit, the last weapon you get in DMC 4 (spoilers?????????) Lucifer was a big dissappointment to me, its just not that fun to try to string it in with the combos of the other two weapons. Ninja Gaiden has much more weapons than DMC and they are all melee and feel unique in their own ways.

Ninja Gaiden II, DMC4 is plagued with backtracking from hell, but still a good game.

Devil May Cry 4. Ninja Gaiden 2 felt like it wasn't even finished. It was pathetic.
