I bought this game, because l am a fan of the game series. I thought i was buying a completely different game (tale) of Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Once I started playing, the game was very familiar, I thought it was a coincidence, but when I nonstop playing, I realize it was nearly the same tale, same characters and places comparing with Sigma. I am very disappointed with this. If you have Ninja Gaiden sigma, don’t buy Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2.

Well, Lets start off with a nutshell:
Graphics: 80/100 – Splendid for a console.
Gameplay: 98/100 – Fastest, most open I’ve seen.
Plot: 45/100 – Pretty cliche and full of holes.
New Characters: 50/100 – Throw away, except for one of them.
My main complaint is that I got this for the Cooperative play, which turns out to be exclusively online. Come on, team ninja.
If Capcom can get off their throne long enough to make splitscreen an option, so can you.

i was waiting for this game since i heard that they will make it,as i am a huge fan of the nanja gaiden series and i have played and finished all ninja gaiden sports meeting on all consoles and my top one was ninja gaiden II on the xbox 360 it has a superb graphics,but i thought that the new one on the ps3 will be better because this one would be the latest version of ninja gaiden series,but i have bin shocked!!!! cause they have copied the xbox 360 version but forgot to give it the same graphics and the same action that the xbox 360 has,on the xbox 360 when you slash the enemies with the dragon sword you can cut them to pieces and the blood will be splashed all over on the ground and all parapet and you can see that your enemies have bin cut into pieces which really different than the ps3 version i waited for this as i was playing telling my self that it will become different when i complete half the game,but i have bin shocked cause not anything happened it still like the xbox 360 game but with a terrible graphics,when i finished the game,i turned off my ps3 and hooked on my xbox 360 with ninja gaiden II in it and the fun started,waaaaw the xbox 360 version is the best.

Anyone familiar with the discussions about whether or not video sports meeting are art need look no further than Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2. As a fantastically frenzied charged action game and a ramped up version of the original, complete with new characters, tweaks, modes and polish, this game makes a definitive and compelling argument.
There is no sense in trying to persuade a NG hater to the camp. Those who know and like Ryu Hayabusa, and those who know why NG is head and shoulders above the rest in comparison to other action sports meeting need not hesitate in partaking in the bliss that is NGS 2.
If you are on the fence (and I can’t reflect of any reasons besides difficulty, which IS addressed here) about NGS 2, then I’m here to tell you- DON’T BE. It simply does not get any better than this. From an artistic point of view, this is a well rounded and well thought out collector’s dream!
I also would hark back you there is a Collector’s Edition of Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 available, although I do not recommend the retailer in question because of their affair practices. BUT, as an only resort for the aforementioned product, you really have no choice.
Polished qualified presentation that is light years ahead of the competition.
Absolutely superb. Do not hesitate to partake!
Ayane, Rachel, Momiji, Ryu….. what more could you question for? It’s already in the game! Go for it.
My resolution highest recommendation goes to Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2.

I’ve been a fan of Ninja Gaiden sports meeting for about as long as I’ve been playing video sports meeting. Even back on my NES, Ninja Gaiden was known for it’s quality as much as it’s difficulty. When Ninja Gaiden made the jump to the Xbox with Ninja Gaiden and then Ninja Gaiden Black I was only even more impressed with Tecmo’s work with the series. Ninja Gaiden Sigma on the PS3 presented a remake of the Xbox original that improved not only the graphical quality but also the framerate and the introduction of side-missions to further the tale.
It’s with some disappointment then that I write this review of Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2. It’s not that Sigma 2 is a terrible game. But it’s certainly not splendid either. The truth lies somewhere in the middle.
So I’ll start with what I like first. Tecmo has done a fine job getting the framerate stable. This was an issue that plagued certain parts of the X360 version. I’m pleased to say that I didn’t once notice any brake in the framerate. The controls on the DS3/SIXAXIS feel like they are mapped perfectly and intuitively. At no point did I miss my X360 controller while playing Sigma 2.
The inclusion of side-missions is somewhat clean if only for the fact that you’re able to glean tidbits of the behind the scenes storyline that weren’t present in the X360 version. During the side-missions you’ll take upon yourself control of either Ayane, Momiji or Rachel and battle owing to a shortened level fighting a boss at the end. The levels fit in the by and large storyline and don’t feel tacked-on. But, because the levels are spread out throughout the game it can break the flow. Each female character controls slightly differently and has a different go set than Ryu which can cause some problems if you’re moderately new to the game. One particularly nasty boss fight takes place at the end of Momiji’s level and has you squaring off against 2 bosses at the same time. It can be brutal if you’re a newcomer to the series.
On the topic of difficulty, Sigma 2 has certainly been toned down from previous Ninja Gaiden sports meeting and even from Ninja Gaiden 2 on the X360. The ‘Normal’ difficulty setting known as “Path of the Warrior” in Sigma 2 is akin to the ‘Simple’ difficulty “Path of the Acolyte” on the X360 version of the game. That’s not to say that there isn’t challenge in Sigma 2. Path of the Mentor and the even more hard Path of the Master Ninja will test the limits of anyone’s gaming prowess. One huge difference that makes Sigma 2 immediately more accessible to newcomers is the regenerating shape bar. When you take hurt in Sigma 2 it comes in 2 forms – immediate hurt which drains your blue shape bar but regenerates once nearby enemies are dispatched. The more stable red hurt shortens your energy bar and thus how much blue energy you can recover. Red hurt can only be recovered either owing to using restorative items or via a save point. Either way, the renaissance helps to alleviate the brutal difficulty the series is known for. Items are also easily obtained by shopping at Muramasa’s, an item vendor located throughout the game.
Sigma 2 does have limited online multiplayer in the form of challenge rooms that you and a friend can tackle together. These are similar to the challenges found in Ninja Gaiden Black, only with a friend. The challenges range from pretty mild stuff all the way to the uber-impossible that likely very few players will best. Either way it’s a very fun and welcome addition to the Ninja Gaiden series.
Now to the issues that I have with the game. I suppose my first disappointment would be the most obvious – the graphics. To call them hideous would be inaccurate, but, the graphics are by no means splendid. Sigma 2 is certainly showing it’s age. The environments are can be described as barren and lacking detail. One entire segment of the game takes place in New York and a section in Times Square. Tecmo certainly dropped the ball in this drab, barren level. Times Square consists of a few poorly designed neon signs and some broken down cars. Very disappointing. Toward the end of the game the graphics do increase at least when it comes to details. But Sigma 2 won’t go down in the history books as a graphical powerhouse. With the latest slew of PS3 exclusives pushing the graphics on consoles to new highs it’s hard to look past Sigma 2’s average graphics.
Another disappointment is the in-game camera. Though a faulty camera is not anything new to the series, somehow the camera in Sigma 2 manages to be even more cumbersome than previous Ninja Gaiden sports meeting. I found myself frequently finding the camera out of place or slow to adjust. It’s frustrating enough when it’s just you fighting with the camera for a better view of the environment. But it’s much worse when you’re in the middle of a major fight and the camera doesn’t pick up on enemies. The game does at least feature a button to recenter the camera on Ryu – expect to use it constantly.
The tale has never been a focus of the series and it’s no bolt from the blue to find a rather flaky and sometimes unpleasant storyline present here. In person I find the tale in Sigma 2 significantly less compelling than that present in the original Ninja Gaiden Black/Sigma. The tale in Sigma 2 basically revolves around the Black Spider Ninja clan teaming with Greater Fiends to try and revive the Archfiend – a sort of king of fiends. Like I said, the tale isn’t the focus but it’s still disappointing that such small emphasis is positioned on developing the plot.
Also the first time you load Sigma 2 you’ll be treated to a rather lengthy install as the game installs about 3gb of game data on your PS3s HDD. While I normally don’t have an issue with game installs I do take issue with Sigma 2’s install. The main issue is that the game frequently stops to load or is very slow when transitioning from one game element to another. Particularly when you come across fallen ninja and read the in-game journals that these departed ninja have left. I suppose it wouldn’t be so irritating but for the fact that the game installs 3gb of data and still has normal pauses whilst data is loaded.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma ruins in my eyes the ultimate ninja game on the PS3. Sigma 2 is a decent game itself that is showing it’s age and shortcomings but still worth playing. Hopefully Tecmo will see fit to design a new Ninja Gaiden game with the PS3’s strengths particularly in mind.
