And Hell Yeah I am a FANBOY !!!
Thx Mizuhara, great gameplay!
Can we expect Ayane as well?
About the gore and carnage...what does it have to do with PS3? It's just what Hayashi wanted, has more various color coming out instead of red all over the place...but I agree, I want blood to spray out when I kill the humans, but whatever.
The essence from the decapitations makes it look abit elegant and artistic with its shape, pretty cool.
But, new modes, weapons, levels, music and bosses...yes please!
From watching all the GT and IGN footages it made me wonder if they reduced the pace of the combat in Sigma 2, but when you played it, seems not. I guess they naturally suck at these type of games.
master ninja is great very fast NG2
much Resolution in sigma, but Slow
This demo is on Acolyte (only difficulty to offer at E3 as Ryu) so it has less aggressive enemies so you don't need to go very fast.
And they reduced how many enemies coming at you at the same time, so no more hordes of IS spamming off screen or IS spamming in general to get frustuated.
Ryu: Your movements are much slow in Sigma
Watch youtube videos, don't forget to type in "Acolyte" after Ninja Gaiden 2.
But for someone (me) who played NG2 on Acolyte, Warrior, Mentor, trust me, the speed and combat style of NGS2 hasen't been touched from NG2.
You are good in ninja gaiden
I agree it looks super slow and yea i did play the game alot. emmmmmmm
still who cares :)
I speak spanish, I apply translator
They however did reduce the speed of the UT moves here just a tiny bit, and I like it because in NG2 the UT was way too fast to keep up with the cool moves and it ended quick.
But here, they made it a bit slower to see how Ryu does all his awesome moves in the UTs, makes you appreciate what TN did.
But other than that, it's the same to me.
All the ninja gaiden are good, They are my favorites
the sigma 2. I continue it seeing a bit much slow . Excuse
Seems like Hayashi is going with NG route in terms of a few enemies compared to a room filled with enemies that spam grabs, and IS at you.
And the blood and gore being toned down to NG rather NG2.
And unfortunetly, most enemies coming at you was ninjas with IS and they spammed it!
And you can still shake your weapon and the blood would splash on the ground.
On youtube you can find 2 gameplay videos of Ayane and the game is as fast as the original :P
yeah, yeah SIGMA 2 and the almighty Hayashi.... I think he removed some enemies to:
a) make the game more like NG1
b) prevent slowdowns (the NG engine is still good looking but shows its age in NG2....)
c) at least on akolyth, to make a playtrough for everyone possible lol
And Sath is right. Everything from NG2 is still in SIGMA 2. Ok, not the blood and flying body parts. But who cares. I want more content.
BTW, Am I the only one who loves the purple essence. I think it looks pretty cool.
@Thor
Itagaki?
btw, IMO you cant even compare these 2 games. God of War was a button masher with boring scripted Boss fights. And NG is a very hard, challenging and fast action game where mashing buttons means your death.
As for that purple stuff it wont break the game whatsoever it only looks stupid when you cut the head of some ninja and purple stuff comes out when it should be spraying blood everywhere like it should be.
