so lets see how the fanboys spin this as a bad score.

Edit:1.1 maybe you should go check those review sites again most on them are giving 8's and 9's

It's hard to take them serious after seeing the scores they gave to Lair. 8's and 9's across the board. Nothing lower. All credibility lost.

Most reviewers are giving Ninja Gaiden II 6's and 7's for camera issues, mediocre graphics, and a more horrible story than Ninja Gaiden Sigma.

1.3 - Famitsu seems like a independant company so the reviews can be trusted a little more...
The way these review have been going Haze might be a classic. All I know is the videos i've sceen look better than Sigma and that got atleast 9s, and the camera issues seem to be the same ones that led NG1, NGblack, and NGsigma to 9+ review scores. I gotta call shananigans on the industry right now. I've been read a few independant review on Haze and alot of ppl say its in the mid 8s.

Another thing is its only the review that trash the game, in the previews they are all lovin it, they're all its fast and bloody with good controls and excellent graphics then thereview comes and they talking like its unplayable. You know what they may be knocking the score down so they can give MGS4 a moderate score or they cant have Mgs4 score anywhere near a NG2 score so they need to make some distance.

"Haze Famitsu score: 34/40"
NG2=Haze
reviews are just opinions.

Really, I don't think the overall quality of the game can be determined one way or the other by a Famitsu review. After all, 34/40 is the same score they gave Haze and The Orange Box.

I dont understand. NG black being better than NGsigma means that NG2 is going to be better than NG sigma. I dont get it.

The other posibility with the haze reviews is that review sites are simply not consistant. Which is kinda proven by the 4.2 ign slapped on it. 4.2's are reserved for truly shocking games. Haze simply isnt one. Great, no. Shocking, also no. Sonic is a 4.5, and i think that that is high. Haze is not that bad. Professional Game journalism is dead to me, until these sites start showing their professionalism and stop buying into hype. GTA4 graphics were not a 10. Yes its a sweet game, but I like my review sites to not BS.

3.5 - @ LaChance
Ninja Gaiden sold 1.5 million copies but that is with the original and Black added together. Sorry, but neither of those sold more than .75 million separately. That's info from a few articles taken from Wikipedia and a few others so if you have something else, please enlighten me.

As for the scores... Scores are opinions and Sigma was the third release of the same game with minor changes. Only issue is that the PS3 version of NG was in 1080p at 60fps and had no frame rate issues. What's NG2's excuse?

7 - Too bad this score won't show up in the "almighty" Metacritic.
Metacritic won't take scores from Famitsu.

I'm pretty sure Gamerankings doesn't either.

Shame really.

Is that like some sort of fetish Yanikins

Reviews across the board for games these days certainly seems all over the place though i agree.

I'm going to love NG2 because it's unlikely a worse game than the first and i resort to using shoulder ala Zelda to flick my view - camera has never been a pain to me.For fans NG2 is going to be delightfull

Looks like NG2 is getting pretty good scores. Mostly 8's all around. Not the 9's like the original but still good enough for me.

...Like I said, NG2 could have been better. But at least it's not completely and utterly horrible.

What's Nemuri Hime for the Wii? It scored pretty darn well.
NG2 will end up about the 8/10 mark, good gameplay, decent enough graphics and a dodgy camera. I still pre-ordered it ^^
