Ninja Gaiden and PS Vita = NInja Gaiden Sigma +

The PS Vita is getting an impressive amount of launch titles and Ryu Hayabusa dashes in and makes sure he gets a chance to shine on a brand new system. Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus is a handheld remake of the Sigma game on Playstation 3 with touch controls to support the Vita and everything (Secretly hoping its like Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow where you have to touch the screen for your ninpo magic, i know it cant be all drawn since you have a lot but still a cool idea i must say.) Another cool feature is fixing the camera which we couldn't even do in the PS3 version.

I personally feel this game could be quite possibly the best launch title on a Sony system, and the Vita is reasonably priced... what?! I would hope but doubt the extras for this title make playing the game again just as fun the first time or if i decide to play it one hundred times after. I loved Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword for DS it's another portable Ninja Gaiden Success and i don't doubt that Sigma + will disappoint anyone. Just hoping for some character replayability *Coughs* Rachel, Ayane, Momoji

Ninja Gaiden borrows elements from Dead or Alive.

Yosuke Hayashi insists the Dead or Alive series impacts the new sequel to Ninja Gaiden and wants it to be less violent then its predecessor and focus on a more drama and story based action setting, think of a movie but in Ninja Gaiden form starring Ryu Hayabusa...... as Ryu hayabusa. Instead of relying on his Obliteration Technique which normally left our foes splitting and twice as dead, we now have his rage or possibly an inner demon that he cant control to leave our enemies in our red aura... or more realistically a stain on our sword.

A new gameplay mechanic being added to Ninja Gaiden 3 will revolve around play styles to have new comers not wanting to break controllers to the wall if the game gets to be too much for them at first but at the same time shouldnt affect veterans who are used to gritting teeth and broken controllers. While making this game they have drawn a lot of inspiration from DOA its core gameplay could be integrated into Ninja Gaiden 3 making Dead Or Alive Ryu Hayabusa pro player "Emmanuel Master Rodriguez" some time to own in the adventure and in the fighting i can see izuna drops all day, Great damaging combos and that flair to the ninja that only the master can give.

I know that's your face Master don't play!

Ninja Gaiden 3 removes that limb slicing feel good experience

Remember playing Ninja Gaiden 2? slicing and dicing your way through the already hard enough to kill enemies, just when they were about to die you got the last hit you would take an arm, leg, or even an OFF WITH THERE HEAD? Ninja Gaiden 3 will not have the signature feature included in the newest not Tomonobu Itagaki made sequel. What does this mean for the gamers like me that needed to slow down the enemies who were limping at you with one leg or something? A member of the development team has said the following: "We don't think people want to see that anymore, they’ve already seen it." That is very true I have seen it before…. And would like to see it more and with more gore.

Let's not lose our heads over this...ok maybe one.

What do you think this means? They want to make a title that steers away from what Itagaki started? Or maybe something else? I mean realistically speaking sharp swords; scythes, staffs and all the other ninja gear you get can slice through a lot more than people think. Hopefully they’ll see that we need the small feature that makes Ninja Gaiden what it is and it will be in the final build.



With Ninja Gaiden coming out sometime next year there is always more news and other things they will tell us, like perhaps if this is connected to a new Dead Or Alive title!? With Ayane being in the games before,

Kasumi being teased at the end of the second game,



Stop Playing Kasumi we all know thats you



Rachel and her giant hammer slamming down foes like nothing,

Sonia the agent and gun expert form Ninja Gaiden 2,

Last but not least lets not forget about momoji the rookie ninja from Nintendo DS title Dragon Sword whose become independent and bad ass.

Hopefully there is going to be some female help for our boy Ryu Hayabusa after all he ALWAYS has help from a very bad ass and attractive female, one more character they seem to leave out is Hayate another ninja from dead or alive who knows Ryu perhaps he can make his debut in a Ninja Gaiden Title and show us if there’s hope for us Dead Or Alive fighting game fans.
