Enter Hayate? (A few new Ninja Gaiden 2 details)

According to reports, the face-chopping sequel will have you murdering rival ninjas in real-world environments, including settings in Tokyo, Venice and Times Square in New York, although we wouldn' t count on there being passer-by grannies to punch.
The fighting system has been enhanced with improved enemy AI and new moves. Enemies can perform co-operative attacks, while Ryu will get a new Obliteration technique - a series of fatal blows delivered if you hit Y immediately after removing an enemy limb.
A main rival ninja is also said to feature, who series producer Itagaki apparently described as " bad ass" .
On a not-so-positive note, there' s no multiplayer mode planned, according to a preview reported to feature in the December issue of American magazine, EGM. Look out for new screens soon.
One can only wonder who the rival Ninja is. I' m hoping it' s Hayate, because he is badass. It' d also make for a cool second adventure to play with provided Hayate got his own animation, moves and wind based Ninpo/techniques. He' d also need to move much quicker than Hayabusa. Otherwise it better be a hot kunoichi otherwise I am not bothered.
