The graphics and frame rate are solid and character design is top-notch. There is a convuluded confusing story but if you want story with your killing your not my kind of person.

Similar to how Serious Sam & Painkiller showed up and laughed in the face of all the piss-easy, cinematic, shallow shooters, Ninja Gaiden 2 kicks down the door, slits the throat of all these action “games,” then nonchalantly flings the blood off its blades into a glorious splatter on the walls. The game is about timing…quick, p...
