Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

I have been a Ninja Gaiden Fan Since the first NES Version. Ninja Gaiden For the X Box was incredibly hard and a difficult game to master. I cant tell you how many times I threw my controller in anger swearing I wold never turn that game on again and be back at it 6 hours later. I LOVED that game! Gaiden Sigma was even better! New Weapons and new Bosses and the difficulty was amped up even more. They made a good game even better!

When Ninja Gaiden II came out I couldn't wait. I was somewhat disappointed. Game was a bit easier than the first one. Less skillful weapon control required and you could get away with more button mashing. I really Expected Sigma II to fix the little problems and bring back up the difficulty level back up. It didn't. (Until you unlock Mentor Difficulty, but then you already had to play the game once through.)

Anyways, the graphics are great, Game-play is good, game is WAYYYY too easy, and I don't like what they did with the blacksmith only upgrading your weapon once per location. So with all the health items you find through the game, I rarely had to purchase any items and had nothing to spend my money on. By the end of the game I literally had over a quarter-million essence left over and nothing to spend it on.

So the bottom line, game is easier than it should be, For the average gamer this is good. Graphics are stunning. Controls are excellent. Camera can sometimes be goofy but once you get used to it its fine.

Definite must get and play.

Hope you enjoy it.
