Worth it?
A friend tells me that they censored it and nerfed the difficulty compared to Ninja Gaiden Black, is it true or is he bullshitting me?
It's essentially the exact same game with extra chapters and a few very minor balancing changes. Your friend is an idiot.
And Ninja Gaiden are the gold standard for action games. 10/10 games that have aged very well.
Definitely worth checking it. Be sure to beat Master Ninja, as that's the way it's meant to be played.
I don't recall censoring but there is nerfed difficulty in some places and change for the sake of change sprinkled through out
there are some definite improvements here and there but the trade offs aren't worth it for some players
The US version still has decapitations, only the other versions had them censored.
>>321356572
what the fuck who made that and has he made any more?
>>321356247
According to this
http://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=5975573
there are censored versions, better pay attention before getting it.
>>321356247
EU version is semi censored (decapitations got removed but everything else is still there), US is untouched.
Sigma has a ton of improvements over Black and gets rid of the shitty "obligatry water level" and some dumb padded puzzles and replaces them with better content and new chapters.
Rebalanced everything.
>>321356247
ng black > sigma 1
ng2 >>>>>> ngs2
you're fine with sigma 1 to be honest. its true sigma 1 is a little bit easier than black and they changed some stuff that they shouldn't, but its not significantly worse or anything. unless you really hate the forced rachel missions in singleplayer.
>>321357046
NGS2 is better than NG2 because it has less popcorn enemies, but the enemies are more aggressive with better AI and a bit more health. NGS2 also has the girl chapters and more content.
>>321357961
Sigma 2 completely fucks up the balance and flow of combat, it's total shit.
>>321358452
No, not at all. Sounds like you need to git gud. You can't just kill enemies in a few hits or just spam moves in Sigma 2
>>321358696
>You can't just kill enemies in a few hits
that is the entire purpose of NG2
that's how it was designed
to jump in there and RIP AND TEAR
NGS2 misses this point entirely
>>321356247
Well the Normal mode of sigma isn't the same as the normal mode on black. In sigma there is a few hard parts that were removed
>>321358875
like?
>>321356247
just got a used ps3 for christmas. I played and loved black and 2. should I check out the sigma games for their extra content?
>>321357961
Sigma 2 is a joke of a game anon. They even went as far to remove solo mission mode and the trials of valor entirely. And to make things worse, the main campaign was gutted in favor of changing the combat to small groups of health sponge ninjas instead. Its not even the same game.
>>321358949
Not that guy, but I think the archers in the fire dragon fight were deleted
>>321356736
seriously holy crap
>>321356247
Got Sigma Plus, it's nice.
>>321358843
Yeah, if you're a casual babby who wants a game that makes you feel like "le ebin badass xD" I'd rather have good gameplay which is where NGS2 excels.
>>321359253
>solo mission mode
No, they didn't, are you fucking retarded?
>and the trials of valor entirely
They replaced them with the much more fleshed out and better designed team missions.
>Sigma 2

Oh man the team missions..
they really expect you to defeat 3 bosses at the same with the ridiculously bad AI partner?
hell even with an experienced human partner it's really difficult because of lag
what were they thinking
>>321359968
No, no shit. They are designed to be played by two competent humans. Get some friends you fucking loser.
>>321356247
Changes are rather minimal. Like there's many of them but they dont change too much.
Go get it.
What Ninja Gaiden games are worth getting on the PS3, /v/? I want to beat one and put it on job applications as an accomplishment.
>>321359968
Git gud

You can buy it for $3
>>321356572
those motorcycle enemies are shit
SHIT
>>321360807
Sigma 1 & 2
Razor's Edge
>>321361020
>mfw enemies on horses and motorcycles
and I thought the fallen in dmc3 were annoying
>>321360852
I did actually finish that mission and i've seen sergen's videos.
It doesn't change the fact that you can't beat it with the AI, you have to pass through the dead as fuck online community. They didn't think to offer split screen for missions that require split second reactions and you have to deal with horrible latency
How is that good design
>>321361020
>implying doing a guillotine throw on a motorcycle driver isn't the tightest shit ever
>>321356572
>enemies are slightly more aggressive only on normal mode
>Sigma has better AI
>Black is better
What?
>>321356247
It's less enemies, but worse the actual engine and frame data is different. Black for the original Xbox is still the best game oatmeal cookie ever made
>>321363745
>Blackfags logic
>>321356247
The only thing that really rubs me the wrong way and made me stop and plug in black is the forced Rachel sections. They are so disjointed and flow breaking coming off of Ryu if you arent used to heavy weapons.
>>321365534
Its a shitty heavy weapon too.
Shouldve been the Dabilahro.
>>321356247
Can we talk about the real Ninja Gaidens please
