Ryu is back, better than ever!

If you enjoyed the first ninja gaiden sigma on PS3 then you're going to love this. The graphics and gameplay are extremely smooth and fluid, slightly better than sigma 1, and the enemies come flooding in like rats escaping water! You play as Ryu for the most part with plenty of cool weapons to keep things interesting, and plenty of boss battles to master your techniques. Then there are chapters you play as other character, 3 actually, 3 busty female characters, no suprises there... Tecmo really like their top heavy characters if you know what I mean! If you are new to the ninja gaiden series then be warned that these games are not the easiest out there (which isn't a bad thing because a challenge is always good). It's definitely a wise move to play the game through on the easier setting first time through, i started on normal mode (bad mistake) and if you're inexperienced or haven't played any ninja gaiden for a few years then DON'T pick this mode! It get's quite frustrating and throws you right in at the deep end with no arm bands or lifeguards! There are some easy trophies but then equally extremely hard ones. Very time consuming and it'll be the most frustrating thing ever (if you want the platinum trophy that is, because on hard it really is HARD!!!) Overall an excellent gaming experience, with great controls and graphics. Definitely worth the purchase because it has a lot of replayability. My only slight criticism would be the camera angle, (only here and there, nothing too drastic) sometimes i want to raise it slightly but when i let go of the right stick it drops back down parallel with Ryu and can occasionally cause your view to be obstructed by the surroundings, but other than that the game is amazing.

Awesome Game - One of the best !

Amazing game...but VERY VERY hard at times..!! Nearly broke my PS3 controller at times due to frustration but it is still an epic game.. Missions challenging with a good storyline as well. Lots of content with above average replay value. Highly recommended. 5 Stars

Great Game and still challenging...

It's still the same Ninja Gaiden, but as in Ninja Gaiden Black etc, you now have additonal characters to control. I consider myself a veteran as I finished Gaiden black on high difficulty, the difficulty is tamed down slightly on this release, but you have other Boss battles etc to make up for it. However, at the higher levels it is still very challenging. The characters that you can play is Rachel, Ayane and Momji and also there is Team based play i.e. co-op. When using Ayane you have to change tactics a little, yes it's still some button mashing. But once you learn the moves you can spice things up and run through the game using different techniques. Your key friend is as always blocking and evading, so once you master these you can then juggle it with your techniques to clear levels without utilising your magic powers. Overall, it looks gorgeous at 1080p(what more could you ask for) the graphics look brilliant and the gameplay is smooth as butter. There are hidden areas and it's just a matter of exploring. It's a big up on the xbox360 version and looks better, sadly, the camera is still the same issue, but it is minor issue. Overall, if you have never played this game, then it's a must buy and even if you have played it I still feel it warrants an purchase just for the co-op and the new missions and boss battles.
