Best Action game EVER...not only in this universe, but in alternate parallel dimensions!!!

Ninja Gaiden 2 looks THAT great!!!
Written by Game_Demon on 2007/10/29

The first NG had the worst camera angles I've seen in a game, even if it's controlable. I believe the game's difficulty (insane for some) is caused by the horrible camera work. I hope this will be fixed in NG2.

And Capcom is the creator of the best hack 'n' slash games/series: Devil May Cry and Onimusha.

Response to Game_Demon:

The ratings of professional reviewers speak for themselves: Ninja Gaiden is a more respected series than either Devil May Cry or Onimushu.

Also, as far as your statement about Ninja Gaiden games having "the worst camera angles you have ever seen," I believe I have the reason why that happens.

Ya see, Game_Demon, when you exist in a 4D graphic world created in the imagination of Ken Kutaragi, but never brought to reality, then you are living in what is called an "Event Horizon." Everything that you see is seen from a different perspective than what everyone else sees.



In science, the example used is a black hole. When someone enters a black hole, they are destroyed from the perspective of everyone in this universe. However, from the perspective of the person entering the black hole, everything is fine. Perhaps this is why you seem to think that things are still okay for the Playstation 3, even though everyone else who really does exist in this universe knows that the Playstation 3 has been dead for quite some time due to a lack of third-party support, poor sales, high development costs, difficult programming environment, and overall lack of games in certain genres.

Example: PS3 has absolutely no Real-Time Strategy games. Games like Command & Conquer 3 and Battle for Midearth 2 are released for Xbox 360 and PC, but not for PS3.

Ninja Gaiden 2 is going to be an INCREDIBLE game...it will be yet another killer-app game for the Xbox 360, along with Halo 3, Bioshock, Gears of War, and Mass Effect.

Well, I'm off to play some Forza Motorsport 2!!!...and Bioshock truly is awesome!
