Interview with the director of Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Includes detials on characters, levels, and graphics.
In the conclusion to a three part series, CV takes a look at the most recent Ninja Gaiden games, for better and for worse.
They need to make a true sequel to Ninja Gaiden 2, that was the most satisfying combat I've experienced in a hack n slash game.
been playing 1&2 on and off since they were released. I usually will play until I get frustrated then take another year off lol. Nver tried 3 or the 4th one even though they are in my backlog.
I tried to go back to Sigma but good god those controls are just insufferable. Couldn't do it.
It’s a big month for the PlayStation Now Subscription, with new games and new devices to play on.
Is PS Now fairly consistent with a good internet connection? Do the games offer trophy support?
I love ps now, think about 100 + ps3 games streamed right away to your tv. Don't have to wait for gamefly, don't need to get up and go to the store. Instantly streamed to you from an internet connection. Think about it. gamefly two disc plan runs you 22.00 a month for two disc and sometimes you have to wait. 2-4 days for a game. $44.00 for 3 months gets you unlimited access to ps3 games and soon ps2 and ps1. If you are an mmo player you pay 15.00 a month just to play that one game. i think the value is perfect. Even when psn goes down. Think about mmo's when they go down or go down for maintenance you still pay 15.00 a month for that one game. Not trying to fanboy here but ps now will be a good investment. Think about it you don't have to hook up your old console just to play a game.
I tried PS Now for a month and am now really intrigued by the games on demand model, the convenience of such a massive catalogue at your fingertips is awesome. But I have ps3 so the value just isn't there at the moment. Also I couldn't help but wonder why there aren't more Sony exclusives featured on Now?
The best games to play on PSNow would be RPGs, Card Games, Board Games, pretty much anything turn-based or non-reflex related. On the opposite side, Fighting games, for example, are absolute trash on PSNow because if you're even half serious about them you don't want any interference, period. Normal online tends to be bad enough as it is for serious players.
I would also stay from anything like 1001 Spikes or Shmups.
Also, when is the price going to drop to a reasonable $10 per month/$100 per year?
A Change.org petition to bring all three titles in the new Ninja Gaiden trilogy to Steam is gaining traction.
I thought it was interesting that Yohsuke Hayashi thinks 720p is the best resolution to use in terms of balancing graphics and performance. I hadn't thought about it like that. Regardless, I'm looking forward to this game.
from a 3rd party developer that isn't dissing a system. It's a breath of fresh air. The screens do look a lot better then the TGS shots. Should be a good game.
I played this game to the teeth on the XBOX! Best action game ever! Better than DMC! Better than God of War! And better than Prince of Persia!!! Enjoy it Sony boys!!! But I bet you once Ninja Gaiden 2 comes exclusive to the 360, you guys will be buying one ;)
A very good read.
Yohsuke Hayashi was straight to the point with his answers. He also has a great sense of humor.
One part I loved about the interview was when 1up asked, "Is there any concern that by the time the game ships that Sony still won't have sold enough units to make this a financially worthwhile venture?" His response to that was "A lot of developers use the excuse, "Oh, well the hardware doesn't have enough units out there so we're not going to develop for it." In our case we think, "Obviously someone has it." So we think you should make a game good enough to get everyone who owns that hardware to buy it. That's the ideal goal, right?"
I feel all game makers should have that type of attitude about us the gamers.
