Ewww, Sigma. sick

Sigma 1 is alright, but Xbox 360 II >>>>> Sigma 2.

I guess it's better then no Ninja Gaiden at all.

Why am I pooh poohing Sigma?

This is why:

Sigma 2 gutted everything good about 2. MASSIVELY reduced the number of characters on screen. Massively amped up damage of throws, and buffed enemies against limb dismemberments.


What this adds up to is counter attacks being useless against grabs during certain animations, as intended. Broken game, tedious chore of a fight via long range spamming.

Pretty cool.<3 Ninja Gaiden. I've already played them but this'll be a great deal for those looking to get into the series or wanting to play on current gen.

They can enjoy backwards compatibility on current gen. stick out tongue


I'll give you Sigma, that's the closest to Black. Although the original is still better imo.

Sigma 2 and Razor just suck.

Haven't played any of the Sigma versions, I do have NINJA GAIDEN 3: Razor's Edge tho. So i might end up getting this collection even tho i'll be doubling up on Razor's Edge

is the collection going to be digital only or are there gonna be physical copies?

360 Niinja Gaiden 2 was fun play in front of people who never saw it before.

*Blood and limbs painted all over walls and floor* "And the they say games are too violent these days, lol"

I only mess with NG Black, and NG 2 on Xbox, and 360. The Sigmas were too easy and watered down.

Well so far these days MK 11 is the most violent game, Some folks can't handle the fatalities in that game.

So according to Team Ninja, they couldn't use the source code for Ninja Gaiden Black anymore, which is why it isn't included in the collection:

"It all boils down to the inability to "salvage the varying assortment of data" the studio left behind." confused

Australia is probably in the same situation, I'll just go on Amazon and get a copy.
