Itagaki' s Protégé gives first in-depth NG∑ interview - Oct 28, 2006 02:17
...dude seems pretty well qualified, and he makes some interesting comments on developing for 360 and PS3...

..which finished game out of this and DMC4 will have the best visuals?....

Very vague comments...

The charcoal and oil pastel thing is typical of Japanese developers, although it' s the type of comment usually reserved for Kojima-san He obviously won' t say that one platform is more powerful, or capable of more because he' s developing on Sony' s platform, and Itagaki is developing on 360.

Itagaki mentioned in an inteview last week (?) that PS3 was slightly more powerful (because of CELL - which we all know anyway) and that he would be ok if the guy developing Sigma wanted to take other Team Ninja games to PS3. As long as they make DoA5 cross-platform online then it' s all good.

...DOA5 is miles off... ...three years away minimum...

...Itagaki will be making at least two other titles before he returns to DOA....

Like Majik said, it' s rather vague. I like the Graphics though. The rubber effect on Ryu' s suit is amazing. Wonder how good it will look when its finished.

Btw. The guy seems to contradict himself quite often, he either says that Gameplay is the most important thing or that the Graphics are...I don' t get it. Oh well, doesn' t matter.

Arrogant?

Ninja Gaiden/Black was the definitive action game of the previous generation. In 720p/1080i it destroys much of the 1st generation 360 titles and has tons more depth. I think that Ninja Gaiden/Black, Chaos Theory and RE4 were the best games of the last generation and as cool as God of War and DMC3 were they could dream of touching the quality of NGB.

This guy has the relevant experience and Itagaki' s backing. He' s working with a game that is already half built and is only adding and upgrading to the mechanics and graphics. Ninja Gaiden 2 will obviously be far superior but Sigma will easily be the best action game on PS3 until NG2' s obvious release further down the line. I highly doubt God of war 2 or 3 and Heavenly Sword will offer much in the way of competition, even if in themselves they are awesome games.

Only DMC4 looks like it could be comparable, and even then, for people who haven' t played Ninja Gaiden, for non-Xbox owners, Ninja Gaiden Sigma will be a completely new experience and they will take away from it what those of us who played the Xbox version away from it at the time.

Plus, the fighting on water " proper" already makes it better than any other action game...

It' s often times been said that women love a guy with confidence, so obviously Itagaki-san and his Protégé gets all the ladies

yes ninja gaiden is the one of the best action games of last generations but i believe god of war is better, ths game got much more favorable critics than ninja gaiden did anyway, i played them both i owned them both and i was amazed by god of war more than ninja gaiden... may be it offers more depth than god of war i won' t argue about this, but i found god of war more fun, and visualy more appealing.

ninja gaiden didn' t win many awards as god of war did and i don' t have much expectations about devil may cry 4, this game is not seducing me.

god of war 3 on ps3 will kill everything else.

keep hoping, i don' t see that game coming for a long time, if at all. Didn' t Jaffe say he was content to work on small online games and wouldn' t do another gow or twisted metal even if sony asked?

God3 will be made with or without Jaffe, hopefully Jaffe knows this.

No, he said it would probably turn intoa trilogy.

As for God of War winning awards, ...it was on the right console. I think you simply found Ninja Gaiden too hard and couldn' t beat the first boss...

I think someone missed the letter to console fanboys...

Majik maybe i don' t accoud for the third, but some website had an interview with him saying for now he is in a comfortable enough situation to say no to anymore gow. and is focusing on these small games, and Phil harrison is happy about it or something...

Dear sweet marymotherofgodprayforusnowandforeverinourdeathamen...


When I saw that, i instantly knew.

....
...

Now imagine Ninja Gaiden 2, with:

Water fights vs. Hayate...

AAAARRGHGHHHHHHHHHHGHHHHHHHHHHGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Aerial recovery to a jumping slash (which would be really hard to pull off!!!)

This game rains sh!t all over:

God of War 1 and 2

Devil May Cry 1,2,3,4 (any special editions also).

Actually.... ANYTHING action/adventure based!!

Itagaki and that guy have every right to be cocky, they know their games!!!

I strongly recommend that if you want a glimpse of Ninja Gaiden 2, that you buy
DOAX2. He did it with the first one and he' ll do it again!!!
