The best weapon based fighting engine ever created.
Team Ninja has taken an odd last step with their critically acclaimed action adventure/open world game Ninja Gaiden/Black/Sigma, in the form on Ninja Gaiden 2. The main focus of this game feels more like an Arcade game, then anything else. You travel all over the world in pursuit of the demon statue in the hands of one of the greater fiends, to ultimately reawaken the arch fiend aka the devil. Why they want to do this? WHO THE HELL KNOW! It’s just an accuse to go kick some major ass for a 15 to 20 hour adventure. The part where this game shines over its predecessor is its unbelievably deep game play. It plays like a fighting game, so if you’re into that, then you will probably like this game on some kind of level. The difficulty can be at times uneven; some of the bosses feel extremely unpolished. But if you can hang in there till the end, you will come away with one of the most satisfying experiences to be had in a video game. You really feel like you have accomplished something after beating this game. There aren’t too many games out there trying to do what NG2 is doing. Games are made far more forgiving these days. It’s good to see some developers still out there trying to make games challenging, they deserve a place in this world and NG2 is proof of this in my eyes.
