Ninja Gaiden 2 worldwide in June
With some sort of video capturing.
Tomonobu Itagaki has revealed that Ninja Gaiden 2 will be released worldwide in June, exclusively on Xbox 360.
Specifically the US will get the game on 3rd June. No other territory was picked out.
The leather jacket and sunglass-clad boss of Tecmo announced the date at the Microsoft GDC keynote earlier this evening, after showing a special Temple of Sacrifice demo to the crowd.
In it we saw hero Ryu slice through bizarre enemies like they were an offensive piece of cheesecake and he a furious fork, creating a bloody great mess that left us thoroughly confused.
Thank goodness for the frequent controller disconnections, then, and the demonstrator pausing to save before fighting some sort of boss creature with wings and obviously bigger muscles than the rank and file goons.
Interestingly, there also seemed to be some sort of "record" function where you can capture moments of action and upload them. We speculated that this could be some sort of Leaderboard with video proof. [That was certainly what it sounded like - The Man Who Was There]
And that was that.

Still have to finish the first one mind, I got to the second to last level, and then it just continuously handed my ass to me, I gave up before I literally murdered someone.

While I personally *do* hope that Team Ninja makes the sequel more accessible, there's nothing wrong with including a range of difficulty levels from the off for all tastes from Easy to Extremely Challenging so everyone can enjoy it not just those that are masochistic enough to actually enjoy the default levels (which even the developers admit are intentionally hard). DMC4 is the most accessible and thus the best DMC game I've played to date because it allowed me to complete it yet still play through on harder difficulty levels rather than dropping me in at the deep end and putting me off the whole thing just half-way through. I *want* to complete the games I pay £40 for, thank you!
And, please, don't give me all that "you're rubbish, you should try harder" crap because everyone is different and what might be easy for one person, might be hard for someone else. I like to play games for enjoyment not to be frustrated and annoyed. Games like Ninja Gaiden are very easy to implement difficulty levels into so there's no excuse for Team Ninja alienating lesser gamers. I admit I'm not a brilliant gamer (nor do I care that I aren't) but I do enjoy these kinds of games provided I can play them at my level of "expertise". And it is ironic that the Japanese are notorious for preferring easy games, so they can play more of them, yet a Japanese developer goes and makes their games uber-hard for the Western market.
