Summary: Improvement on the original 2008-10-04
Comment: 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)

Summary: All action; no nonsense 2008-09-16
Comment: I've only played a few hours so far and I think the game is a great sequal to the first. The action seems to be more fast-paced and the graphics are very impressive. 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. Maybe it gets worse as I go, but I don't see how.
Yes the camera is quarky, but it was like that in the original as well. 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.
I'm tired of programmers dumbing down games. 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.
Bottom line is if you played the first and enjoyed it, you should definitely enjoy this one. If you like hack and slash games, you should enjoy it. If you're looking for a challenge you should enjoy it. If you like blood and decapitation and mutilation (in video games), you should enjoy it. If you have A.D.D., you should enjoy it. If you like a slow, methodical game, stay away.

Summary: If you thought it was Hard you suck 2008-09-15
Comment: 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.

Summary: Wow 2008-09-05
Comment: This game is great. 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. Also, they fixed the game killing glitch, too, so the game works great now. No more freezing issues. Just autoupdate next time you pop the game in.
