If NGS2 gets AAA that'll be funny.

People don't consider NGS to be exclusive. Highly doubt they'll call NGS 2 exclusive.

Congrats I guess though cows had fun calling NG2 a flop.

MS may need to show off that MGS4 tattoo sooner then they planned. :P

SecretPolice

Was the official hype for NG 2 AAA? If it was, I don't think cows were the only ones who said it flopped.

MGS 4 to the 360? That game is going to have a lot of things changed.Some of the cutscenes needs to be redone (teh cell talk dropped), Apple I-Pod will not be included, the Dualshock controller will also be gone. And the game will be multiple discs, around 2-3 probably (I don't see this as an issue. PSX games played perfectly inspite of having to swap discs)

But seriously, will such changes for the 360 really worth it? I don't think Konami will find it to be worth the money.

But if it does happen, maybe 360 owners can finally enjoy MGS 4. I think thats awesome :)

Beats me, wasn't there a rumor that Lionhead was supposed to announce something at GDC? killerfist

It'd be funny if it scored better though. :P

I know one thing though; Itagaki is probably pissed. :lol:

[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] ohh my system wars would implode, also if it did have new features IE new levels and weapons would it be exclusive?Lionheart08

System Wars will be all over the place!!

But still, I hype NGS 2 a solid 8 or 8.5. The game is great, but the story was super lame and the game just seemed to lack the life the other NG games had. So I don't think the scores are going to be so different from the 360. I also think the Ayane missions are going to feel out of place and tacked on.

But I bet you the game will score a 9.0 if they add a camera mode for the female models in this game (just kidding)

[QUOTE="shutdown_202"]

wow...just wow. Im so glad i didnt buy this last week, instead i bought ICO and Shadow of the collosus.

Ayway with this, lemmings are immensely owned. Not only do they lose an exclusive, but cows are getting more games this year and this version will be the best version. I used to criticise cows by saying NG series is so much better than GoW but now that they have all the best action games, looks like we win!

im still amazed, especially with all the exclusive crap lemmings were spouting last year.

Isnt that funny though? Lemmings hold the NG series as a trademark of the Xbox etc but the best installments are both on a Sony console. Let me guess the arguments "bu bu but we already played it" or "bu bu but cows only want our left overs". hahahahaha the gamers win again the fanboys lose!

McdonaIdsGuy

Yeah, just like ninja gaiden sigma 1 :roll:

Ninja Gaiden 2 probably was just a multiplatform game from the beginning, and Microsoft sewed up the exclusive for last year, which is why it was arguably as unfinished as it was. If it's as good of a translation as the original Sigma, I'll definitely get it.

Why would it be even the slightest bit shocking for it to score higher, or even why would it be funny? :| It's bloody obvious it's going to score higher it's the same game, with improvements. :| Extra modes/levels/characters too no doubt. It'd not make any sense to score it lower. :|

[QUOTE="Kashiwaba"]hmmmm 360 getting crappy port of FFXIIIkillerfist

Check this article out. Tomonobu Itagaki confirms that Ninja Gaiden II will never appear on the PS3, and if it ever did that would be "a loss of face for everyone involved."

Ouch. He got owned there :?

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] if Microsoft was smart they would pick up Itagaki and open up a studio with him......killerfist

You're forgetting one thing, this is system wars. Despite common logic, lems will damage control and cows will claim ownage, and it's funny watching from the sidelines. :P

We still don't even know if this will be a Japan-only release or global. Microsoft's publishing deal could prevent NGS2 from coming to North America, you know?

jg4xchamp

Ive heard alot of people say things like this and i have always wondered is he really that good? what part does he have in a game development? He gets so much praise which i think should be said to team ninja as a whole then him alone. Unless he really does that much.

Similar to how Miyamoto gets all the credit for twilight princess and mario galaxy when it was mostly lead by Eji Aonuma and Yoshiaki Koizumi and of course the rest of the team.

No, I meant that the score won't be so different. Maybe a 8.5 but come on, a 9.0+ ? The core components of the game is essentially the same. The story just falls flat on so many levels. Even Gears 2 had a better story.

But if the game scores a 9.0+ then I'd be really surprised. Let's see what happens...

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] yeah but who cares. how hard could it be come up with a name for a fighting game with chicks with big knockers im sure he can think of something, hell i can come up with names for a game like that :P killerfist

Shinji needs his head. Otherwise, we won't be getting much great games ;)

Well the cows should really wait till GDC or offical word on this, If I remember right Japan has something like April Fool's so you should wait before claiming ownage.

Also the people saying they are not buying a 360 because of this, I have a question. Would you really buy a 360 because of Ninja Gaiden 2. I mean the game came outJune of last year, and it is 10 months later.

I'm guessing the PSN support would be leaderboards or similar, but, but, but, if they added a co-op, and/or a versus mode then i would probably die of a heart attack. :D

Yongying

Nope from what that little info box said it is only one player.

if NG2s gets a AAA that will be the biggest ownage ever.kaangonultas

Yeah it will show that the 360 has better stranders than the PS3 :P

I've changed my sig to celebrate this occassion. Proof that you really should watch what you say. :P

it is, im just saying....chicks with big knockers sell themselves....so he can pretty much make a new name like its nothing. He can call it Kinky Extreme Cat Fights(that was about as PG as i could keep it) im going to stop now :Pjg4xchamp

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] Itagaki isn't much of a story person. I would just rather see him build on the gameplay formula, continue the difficulty but this time make it satisfying difficulty not cheap. Also he is going to do a fighting game, he loves the competitive type games. Dude is crazy about Pikmin 2 :Pkillerfist

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"][QUOTE="killerfist"] You're right. Gameplay>>>>Story as far as Itagaki goes. But it would help, a 3 year old could come up with NG2's story.:|IronBass

the game had melons. jg4xchamp

Interesting announcement, I hope they fix the technical issues with this game also, I loved Sigma, hopefully this is true so I get to play it as well. A bit skeptical for now though seeing as it's only listed in a random Japanese video game magazine. I'll wait for a Sony announcement or something from IGN, Gamespot or Famitsu. Some big name site/magazine. Does anyone else remember when they had the preview of NG2 in EGM and it was listed as 360/PS3, maybe they were on to something

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"]the game had melons. killerfist

It only had 4 melons! And at least none of them were on vacation!

[QUOTE="IronBass"]I just wonder what exactly is MS going to do to counter this.killerfist

Now we can see how powerful the PS3 really is because NG2 ran like ass on 360(yes I own and beat the game). If they get it to run buttery smooth like Sigma, I'll buy the game all over again. I hated some of the boss battles but the gameplay is the best around. It's time to see what they(Tecmo) can do with the PS3 again.

yay
