More missions FTW!!

Anyway, I'm not getting excited yet as I can't read Japanese and some dude in that board said it doesn't say anything about NGS2

Ninja Gaiden II published by M$ doesn't mean anything.

With a few tweaks in the content they can say it's a different game, thus SIGMA... Same thing happened with RE4 for the PS2, Capcom added stuff to make it "different".

Even if M$ published it they do not own the IP. As long as Tecmo can get the funding for it they can do whatever they want with it

This makes me want to try Sigma , but I'm scared it is too much for me. I heard only 5% of the people who played NG/NG Sigma actually go on to beat it. The ones who getpretty farand don't finish end up in a straight jacket and a padded cell somewhere.

I hope they fix the camera problems. I played NG2 for a while and did not like it as much as the first or Sigma for that matter.

On normal is perfectly doable. On hard, I can't get past the first boss... if I get to him that is lol

Since it's Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and not just a Ninja Gaiden 2 port, hopefully Team Ninja is going to polish it up in ways that the original was lacking. I never played NG2, but from what I hear it was kind of disappointing, and more or less felt like a NG mission pack. Not sure how much they can change about that, but I definitely look forward to getting this game, simply because I loved Sigma so much. Even if this is just a port of NG2 with some added goodies, I'm sure I'll still enjoy it.

Now, where's my friggin' Mass Effect: Redux on PS3?

Good for PS3 owners, its a great game and it looks pretty legit, but i swear their was an article quoting the creator of the NG2 that it would be the last of the series

Edit: Could it also be a completely different game? Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 is different from Nija Gaiden 2 Sigma

That statement is multiplat, dude... except for the Wii. No one want Wii games ported to their systems. (j/k...)

Yeah it flopped but it was great game according to GS(8.0), don't be so confident for all we know this may follow the same faith as NG2 on the 360.TECMO is working this game without the aid of itagaki this time around since he is not with tecmo anymore.

What is the harder game, considering the hardest modes available on both the Devil May Cry franchise (beat DMC1,DMC3 and DMC4 on hardest difficulties and S ranks), or the Ninja Gaiden franchise on its own hardest difficulty? Never played a NG game before, though I've always wanted to pick up NGS, though it remains locked at a high retail price.

April Fools' is a primarily western tradition, and I am not aware of it being widely practiced in other countries. Also, Famitsu comes out weekly, so they would not publish a joke in March, unlike most American gaming rags that do (since they always hit newstands a month early). And if it was a rumor, they wouldn't have gone through the trouble of publishing mutliple screenshots and a fancy "Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2" logo.

As Kenan Thompson frequently shouts on Saturday Night Live, "This stuff is for REAL!"

Depends... DMC4 could be nearly impossible on Heavenor Hell mode if you're not using guns.

Not too excited.

NG2 simply did not live up to the original.

We all know the horrible story can't be fixed. Let's hope all the gameplay flaws do.

The game is hard....very hard. You will curse at your screen and almost break your controllers. I wanted to throw mine out the dam window. I did eventualy beat sigma and teabaged my tv in victory and screamed "HOW YOU LIKE ME NOW!!!". NG2 is a push over compared to the hell sigma put me through.

Tecmo and Konami are not the same company.

Also, I'm pretty sure the reason why you'll never see MGS4 on Xbox 360 is because Konami wants to push their POS proprietary online platform with the game, and Microsoft would try to make them use Xbox Live (not saying Metal Gear Online ain't great, but I seriously hate having to go through Konami's service to play it).

Is it the "April" edition... do the Japanese pull off April Fools pranks?
