in some ways shockingly bad for an aaa title Okay, I liked the first game and finished it on Warrior. This second game I finished on hard but hated (with a vengeance) an awful lot of it - its incredibly sloppy in places for an otherwise polished game.
Theres two types of game like this: ones where the bosses are rock hard and have little strategy, and then the others like God of war 2 which have actual tactics and challenge.

ninja gorey 2! the gore in this game is emence but absolutly brlliant, it adds so much to the game and the creatures you are slaughtering are so detailed and cool looking. the wide variety of weapons and customizations is neverending and the game can go on forever. there are 2 problems (well tiny problems that should'nt stop you buying this game)they are that the camera angles can sometimes be annoying and makes you blind when going round corners or other objects this leaves you open to attacks as you can't see! also on... more info
Are you hardcore? Fancy yourself as a big time games player? Good. Because nothing can prepare you for the sheer lunacy on offer in Ninja Gaiden 2. Anyone who thought the first game was hard had better not even bother with this. But like anything else, practice makes perfect. 1 hour in: Getting hammered! From the very first screen, you're surrounded by enemies. And they just keep coming. Armed with nothing but your trusty sword, you'll need lightning fast reflexes just to keep the enemies at bay, let alone progress... more info
Ignore the naysayers..... I can't believe that reviews appearing here describe the graphics of NG2 as 'bland','average','barren', etc. Both fore and backgrounds are wonderfully rendered, and although the visuals of the original were great, NG2 shows great improvement. My only gripe is sore fingers; fighting off wave after wave of evil scum is tiring. This is an amazing game. Don't pay any attention to the moaners.
