GameShard gives some thoughts on the PS3 version of Ninja Gaiden 2.
"If you haven't played Ninja Gaiden 2, its probably worth picking that up instead of Sigma 2; its half the price, and you get the oodles of blood and gore which add far more to the experience than you'd expect. Sigma 2 is still fun, and the addition of the missions and new sections add a little extra to the game, but the new bosses break the pace and add artificial difficulty to some parts, whilst the fact that Team Ninja hasn't addressed problems like the camera and balance is mostly unforgivable. It's still enjoyable, and co-op is a blast, but this isn't the definitive version it could have- and should have- been."
Grab your katana, and slice your way through this list featuring the best hack and slash games the PlayStation 3 had to offer.
Dante's inferno... an excellent GoW inspired game. So sad the sequels will never be.
heavenly sword was such a short, but amazing game. that game should be prime material to be made into a download only remaster.
I really enjoyed Castlevania, but struggled to get into it again reattempting it a few years back. I still think it does another of things well; story, presentation, level varietily and art style at least. Gameplay maybe has not stood test of time unfortunately which makes it a chore to get through.
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.
The team behind the best emulator for Playstation 3, RPCS3, has released a brand new video showing some of the major improvements and changes that the team has implemented from December and January.
Very nice, but playing on original console is better - unless, of course, the console's tech is way too old and incompatible with the current tech standards.
The emulators must always be developed, though. It is good as a way to preserve and play old games.
Why would you want the ps3 version when the ps4 version will always be better than even an improved ps3 emulated one? Uncharted 1 was converted to Uncharted 2's engine on the drake collection. Runs at 60fps with uncharted 3 or better level graphics.
It feels good to finish this game in Master Ninja mode.
