I'm not overly impressed at all with this game. I've never really been a fan of the series, so i don't see why it would change now. It's not a bad game, just not for me i guess. It's to much hack n slash for me. It feels like all you do is go from area to area fighting ninjas with no real purpose. To me NG2 has no fun factor and the bad camera views pretty much cement this as pass in my book.

It just depends if you would rather blow your enemys apart with a shotgun,or decapitate them and watch their heads roll down a bloody staircase.The EPIC boss battles will give you a real purpose to buy this game,dont judge it after playing a 10 minute demo............

Didn't really learn to much about the game from the demo. Seems like more of the same as far as Ninja Gaiden games go. Not that thats a bad thing. Graphics were good. The camera was horrible. I'm glad you can at least quickly center the camera though, but damn when you are stuck in a corner no amount of button pressing can help you see WTF is going on. I know theres people on this site that liked Heavenly Sword. This is better and worse than Heavenly Sword if that makes sense... This is a rental, and possibly a purchase down the road when the price drops.

Hello Fellow gamers. This game is way kool. Now the camera angles & control need a little work, But overall this game ROCKS!!

@jb33 - Were you impressed with DMC4? If so, Then this game is no different (better hacking & slashing though), except you get to use more weapons & spells.

@PimpDaddy - You're right, the Demo doesn't really give you much to go on. There's so much more in this game that the demo hasn't even touched.

You're fighting more than just Ninjas, you're battling Werewolves, Dogs, Giant bats, Kingkong like beasts, Giant Spiderlike creatures, etc....

EVERY hardcore NinjaGaiden fan will LOVE this game.

It would seem that in all the years of 3D gaming getting easier and easier, a lot of gamers have forgotten what an old school action game was all about.

This game kicks your ass and names you Sally and I love it for that.

Kenny K: I haven't played the full game yet. But the demo gave me a decent taste. I loved Ninja Gaiden on the Xbox, played Ninja Gaiden Sigma on the PS3. It's just the damn camera sucks at certain times. You can take a great game with a great story, great graphics, great controls and seriously ruin it with something like bad camera issues. I mean even my son who loves Ninja Gaiden was complaining about it...

That was one of the biggest complaints with Ninja Gaiden. Somehow Ninja Gaiden managed to screw it up worse.

I'm going to rent this game though because camera issues and all, it was fun playing the demo.

Edit: I meant Ninja Gaiden 2 has worse camera issues than the first game.

PimpD, NG2 is better than 1, its supposed to be. The Camera issue takes some getting used to. All I did was kept hitting the Center bottom no matter if I'm on the ground or in the air. When you upgrade your weapons ahh its a beast. I have 3 out of 5 weapons maxed out. The game is worth a buy.

Kenny K, I ran through the first 7chapters on normal like nothing but when I started the 8 All hell broke loose literally, Literally I stopped play it for 2 days to re-think my fighting style.
