GameShark: Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Review

This review is trash. It is definitely the definitive version. What was removed? Answer: nothing except a little blood here and there.

"The camera system is just as broken as it was before, combat still has plenty of cheap aspects to it, and nearly all gore has been removed"

All incorrect. The camera system is factually NOT just as broken as it was before, in fact, it has been improved. Granted, it still isn't great, but if you play the two games back to back, you'll see that it is factually, objectively, provably better in Sigma 2.

Combat is also not as cheap. There are areas that had way too many enemies at once attacking you from all sides in the original. They scale it back a bit here, and as a result, it's not as cheap, and it doesn't have the slow-down issue anymore.

And finally, "nearly all gore has been removed"? Total lie. It's still one of the goriest games out there. Blood splatters about and body parts are severed and at the end of every battle there's gore and blood and limbs littered all over the place.

On the other hand, it has vastly improved lighting, textures, and frame-rate, and it has new online features, co-op, and additional characters and bosses and gameplay segments.

It's completely crazy how they just make stuff up about this release.
