NGSigma's moves. This should help some of you. (new weapon + PICS)

this info might be helpful to some. I modified a list from a NGB moves list. most moves are in tact on the demo without need for the normal upgrade procedures required for certain moves in the full game. Pics taken straight off my HDTV with my old camera.

BTW, I'm now ranked #38 on Very Hard and #48 on Hard. :D

Dragon Sword/True Dragon Sword

The best weapon in the game in terms of overall balance. It's quick, powerful, and has the best combos once all levels are unlocked. It's also the only weapon that gets a bonus upgrade during the story. Never a bad choice.

Lunar



The Lunar is a devastating weapon with longer combos than the sword but more strength then the nunchucks or the flails. The best reasons to keep this weapon handy are its charge attack and incredible range. Holding [TRIANGLE] will charge the staff twice and release Ryu's hurricane attack. Not only does this dole out huge amounts of damage, but even after one charge Ryu will benefit from a lengthy period of invincibility while in the hurricane.

Dabilahro



The mighty sword is much mightier when fully upgraded. This is a better choice for a heavy attack than the War Hammer, plus it looks cool. This is one of the best items you can receive.

Nunchaku



This non-upgradeable weapon is fast and cool to use, but isn't very practical. There is a far better weapon with similar (but more deadlY) properties. This one's for nostalgic purposes only.

lol I didn't know shaking the controller would make it stronger.  I shoulda read those stupid notes Ayane kept throwing out. 

Oh, and guys, if you manage to unlock the MASTER NINJA difficulty...just quit.  It's ridiculously hard.  all the normal enemies get replaced with guys that throw exploding daggers AND carry swords that are ON FIRE.  not only do you take normal damage if you get sliced, but you take FIRE damage too. 

Honestly, it's damn near impossible.  In fact, it may be impossible.   

hey thanks cus i dont ever read that crap ayami writes i thought she was some kind of stalker that had wanted to feel all up on me lol:lol:9thwardice

no problem.  I'm bored.

I have. on both Ninja Gaiden Black and Ninja Gaiden Sigma. in fact, its pretty easy in the NGS demo, because they give you lots of weapons and also upgraded to the level three. in NGB you start with a level 1 dragon sword and a nunchku in master ninja mode.  

if there is one guy that can beat this game in the highes mode it could be vincentric 2824596 karma ridicilous

Lunar

3.only people who want' to look cool would use that.

4. this is my opinion, please don't be too offended.

haha did you really just quote yourself?  there's an edit button for that sorta thing.

Anyway, yea the lunar is for noobs but it is kinda cool to hit a gun another 14 times after his head has popped off since the combos last so long

I found the double-kitanas kinda slow in higher difficulties in certain situation.  I find that the enemy is much more prone to rolling out of the way of an attack using the double kitanas than with the Dragon Sword.  when you do hit them, it's devestating, though.  And there's nothing like jumping in a room and using the double charge tornado thing.  that OWNS.

Really now?  What was your strategy?  Izuna Drop them all to Hell? I only tried it once and kinda lost interest, mostly satisfied with my ranks.

By the way,the mode you can unlock is pretty boring.  Actually, I think it's just because I don't like the weapon he woman uses. 

Now ranked #38 on Very Hard and #48 on Hard :DDreams-Visions

yea...the extra mode with Rachel is lame. 

How do you do the move where he grabs the guy and both of you sprial down to the ground headfirst?Anoch20

that's the Izuna drop.   a critical move to perfect if you want to move along.

Izuna Drop (Throw/Scroll): [SQUARE], [TRIANGLE], [SQUARE], [SQUARE], [SQUARE], [TRIANGLE]

Yes, it does.

[QUOTE="gayguy"]does anybody know if shaking the controller actually powers up the ninpo?  How do you tell its working?Sgt_Hale
