  • This can be an enjoyable game, but only gamers of the utmost perseverance will be able to extract its full value. For me, it was a very solid rental, worth playing, which I will promptly delete from my hard-drive and forget about. It really feels like ...

  • Abstract:  Ryu Hayabusa returns for a second helping of slicing and dicing. Its an old-fashioned video game that appeals the players bloodiest fascinations. Sometimes, thats a good thing. At first glance, Ninja Gaiden II bears little resemblance to the origin...

  • Unbelievably fast paced action; Amazing weapon animations; Rewarding challenge; Regenerating health system and obliteration techniques are great additions to an already stellar combat system; Intelligent and extremely aggressive enemy AI.
  • Frustrating camera; Brutal difficulty may be too much for many gamers to handle; Ocassional frame-rate issues; Weak storyline.
  • Ninja Gaiden 2 may not be for everyone, but regardless of that it is still one of the deepest and most rewarding pure action games to be found on this current generation of consoles.

  • Abstract:  Ninja Gaiden II is a better game than Ninja Gaiden/Black/Sigma. It looks simply outstanding, offers a far better difficulty balance, and is just flat out fun to play. Don’t get me wrong, it can still give you fits of controller throwing frustration, bu...

  • Abstract:  Who would have dared to dream that the sequel to Itagakis masterpiece would be every bit as intense, challenging, and massively addictive as the original? Ninja Gaiden 2 is that, and its wrapped up in the goriest next-gen engine ever created. Limbs f...
