User Comments about the Ninja Gaiden II

It's hard to improve upon near-perfection, but Ninja Gaiden II manages it. The enhanced graphics are mind-blowing, the new landscapes fascinating, and the new weapons intriguing. What I've played through of the storyline is interesting, but I hope it picks up (I've only completed chapter III)

with all has brutalness. I loved ninja gaiden on the old nes system. He now can slice body parts off heads arms legs everything you can think of. Ninja gaiden 2 is a great adventure game great bosses and very cool weapons. Now ninja gaiden 2 just took a step up. Ninja gaiden on the xbox was a great game seen in 3-d. Ryu has always been a great ninja but just crossed the line. Please pick this game up right away.

If you like a slow, methodical game, stay away. If you're looking for a challenge you should enjoy it. If you like hack and slash games, you should enjoy it. I've only played a few hours so far and I think the game is a great sequal to the first.

I was hesitant reading some of the bad reviews, but if you liked the original, I don't see how you can hate the sequal. Yes the camera is quarky, but it was like that in the original as well. The action seems to be more fast-paced and the graphics are very impressive. Bottom line is if you played the first and enjoyed it, you should definitely enjoy this one. If you like blood and decapitation and mutilation (in video games), you should enjoy it.

Although I'm a casual gamer nowadays, I hate games like Bioshock and Bad Company that give you no reason to get skillful because enemies don't respawn with each continuation. With the replenishing lifeline and replenishing save points, the game is a little easier (at least on easy mode)--I didn't die until fighting the boss in Hayabusa Village. Maybe it gets worse as I go, but I don't see how. I'm tired of programmers dumbing down games. If you have A.D.D., you should enjoy it.

Ninja Gaiden was a visually stunning game with brutal executions and great ninja moves. The game puts a good challenge and I think was easier than the first one. The game is more user friendly with the capability to explore the other weapons easily.

This game is great. No more freezing issues. Also, they fixed the game killing glitch, too, so the game works great now. Fast paced fun, never ending blood shed. If you want a fast paced game with lots of killing in overly violent ways, this is for you. Just autoupdate next time you pop the game in.
