Ninja Gaiden II

If you loved the first one, what's there to lose?

User Rating: 9.5 | Ninja Gaiden II X360

-----Gameplay-------- 10/10
First off, WOW! This game is like taking Ninja Gaiden (or Ninja Gaiden Black) and turning the knobs all the way up to HARDCORE! The pure violence of it is insane. A slash from your blade could send your foes heads WAAAAAY OFF! This game is insane to the max! 'Nuff said.

----------Graphics----- 9/10

The graphics are better and good looking, but I believe the levels could of looked a tad bit more 360'ish and not like a re-vamped Xbox version backround. Besides that, the game looks as amazing as it plays.


---------Bonus Stuff------------- 10/10
This game rewards you in so many ways. The achievements are fun to unlock, and the costumes are a blast to get. The achievements really expand the difficulty and overall fun of the game.


------Final Words-----
I would give this a 10 to NG fans......and a 9 to new players. Just be ready for the difficulty.
