                      I honestly don' t think Ninja Gaiden 2 looks very good. No atmosphere at all and everything just looks sterile. No impressive lighting, no impressive textures, art direction isn' t overwhelming and the backgrounds looks really sloppy.  I guess the gameplay is what matters in this game but... I can' t help but to feel a little disappointed.

                      I know what your getting at but i' m not worried in the slightest as i' m sure the gameplay will look great. Sigmas bullshots were highly stylized and i think these are done the way they' ve been done to show a stark contrast and press home the fact that it' s a brand new game and not just another revision.    When we see some of the more darker levels i' m sure you' ll change your mind...           Anyway, from Xbox.com:       * Exhilarating ninja action: Assuming the role of a ninja warrior, experience the new " finishing blows"  system that combines gore with fast action and a well-honed combat system. In addition to a variety of brutal new primary weapons and enhanced versions of previous favorites, Ninja Gaiden 2 features both land and water-based action with advanced on-water battles providing a beautiful counterpoint to the land-based action.
 
 * Easy to play, hard to master: Ninja Gaiden 2’s new auto-healing system featuring semi-permanent damage restored at save points is the natural evolution of the franchise’s distinctive gameplay, and introduces a new twist to managing health. Featuring a newly implemented auto-healing functionality and save point system, as well as an extensive story mode and multiple difficulty levels available from the start of the game, the gameplay is accessible to more casual players and challenging to even the most demanding gamers.
 
 * Massive content and engrossing story: The themes of revenge and friendship in Ninja Gaiden 2 give rise to a series of dramatic events to create a truly compelling story. From Tokyo to New York and to the Netherworld, the story leads you through a 30-hour story mode as you skillfully maneuver Ryu Hayabusa through a demonized world fraught with peril and danger. In addition to the single-player campaign, upload Karma scores to Xbox LIVE® leaderboards and participate in an all-new Master Ninja Tournament.
 
 * Realistic graphics in next-generation gaming: Built from the ground-up from Team Ninja’s in-house gaming engine for Xbox 360, Ninja Gaiden 2 represents the best in amazing visuals, responsive control, and thrilling combat with an extensive assortment of ninja weaponry.
   30 hour story mode sounds good to me...

                      I' m liking the " Venice overwhelmed by a Japanese Ninja in Italy and brought all the demons with him feel" , that water in the background is just begging to be
 blessed by some serious water combat. Whilst the water combat in Sigma was okay
 it lacked that bad ass feel, which I am surethey have delivered in Ninja Gaiden 2,
 and I can hardly see Tomonobu Itagaki f@cking this game up, since Dead or Alive
 2 he has been churning out games rated between 8 out of 10 to 9 out of 10
 consecutively, and that is also with barely updating the engine, as he is one of the
 few developers that realises gameplay matters tons.
 
 Anyway, I can already judge from those screens that combat has been ramped up.
 
 All I need to see now is a rolling gameplay trailer...
 
 Oh, and Infinite Discovery looks nice, albeit like Crimson Sea on the Xbox.

                      Im much more looking forward to the DS NG, gameplay looks much more interesting.    Edit: this is asuming that the gameplay is the same as the previous like the graphics.

                      I' ve long been exited about NG2 and even though the graphics aren' t as great as I had imagined, the rest looks like what I had come to expect from a sequel to Ninja Gaiden. So why, for some reason, now that the screens I' ve longed for has been shown for me, I suddenly lsot all exitment? It doesn' t look bad or anything, but I just don' t feel hyped about the game anymore. 
 Infintie Discovery I dunno much about, but the little I can see in those screens fail to intrest me.
 
 Yakuza 3 however has caught my infinite attention. I never played the older games, simply ' cause I thought they looked rather " Meh" , but this time, everything just klicked. I hope it' ll turn great!

                      Dionysius I wouldn' t worry, you' re still living in the age of promised tech demo' s  and stuff, I for one have ocme to the conclusion that graphics this time round really
 aren' t going to get much better any time soon, that being said, i' m sure you' re excitement for the game will return fully revitalised when an actual gameplay trailer comes out...
 
 Surprisingly, Ninja Gaiden 2 is being published by Microsoft Games Studios this time
 around, and not Tecmo.... Which means, a fully-fledged 18 rated Ninja Gaiden 2
 with all the flying body parts and blood to boot. YES!
 
 Now someone get to work on finding a gameplay trailer...

   My arms cut off, sorry, I' ll just bleed a little less so I don' t come across as not being    serious, I think I dropped a ligament a few yards back.

                      This is looking spot on. I finished NGB on hardest setting. Hope this is as hard.

                          yeah but come on. This is hardly realistic.        No matter, Hopefully the blood will stain Ryo' s suit and you have to wash it during loading time.       This game fails without it.

                      The blood is definitely insane, but that' s completely intentional... I' m sure it' ll look very cool in motion. 
 As for Yakuza 3, it looks fantastic... hopefully a 360 version is in the works as well.

 Ninja' s can do that.
 
   Yeah Silent.       Pish posh, who' s talking about realism here?       He can fill the whole city with blood, then run on it and still kick ass. If anything,    there isn' t enough blood.       Of course you would think that afterthe de-sensitive fest that is Gears of War.       You should play games with more blood in them.
