Ninja Gaiden 2 (Xbox 360)

I dont agree that the page should be called 'Ninja Gaiden 2 (Xbox 360)', due to the fact that there is no evidence to suggest that it will DEFINITELY be a 360-only title. It should be changed to 'next-gen', '2008 game' or something along those lines. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jericho1337 (talk • contribs) 22:35, August 29, 2007 (UTC)

Why isnt it released on the Playstation 3? It isnt owned by Microsoft, isnt it?

On PS3 we have only crap like Ninja Gaiden Sigma, which hasnt neither much gore nor mutilations.

With less than a month before the game is scheduled to be released, I think it is safe to say it will only be for the 360. Shouldn't the title be changed back to "Ninja Gaiden 2 (Xbox 360)"? If it does come to another console in the future, the article's title can be changed then. I'll wait a week or so, and if no one disagrees I'll try to figure out how to change the title myself (or someone else can do it). --24.174.107.81 (talk) 02:56, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Please change it back. There is no indication that it will be released on any other platform. Saying it MAY be is pure speculation, and Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. If it IS ported to any other platforms, the title can be changed. ZappyGun (talk) 13:42, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

NOT published by Microsoft games studio

Product Info Ninja Gaiden® 2 Developer: Team Ninja Publisher: Tecmo http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/n/ninjagaiden2/default.htm 207.210.20.237 17:00, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism

"Itagaki was quoted that he intentionally sold his soul and the game's right to Microsoft during the event as saying 'I honestly didn't think that Tekken sucks, it was the system it's running on that sucks. Now please enjoy the world's best action game, running on the world's best hardware'"

I found this in the article. It sounds like vandalism.

• Nope, 'fraid not. Itagaki is famous for his rather outspoken approach to games. Don Black 15:45, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
• In my opinion, this quote should be removed since it has zero relevance to the subject being focused on and even threatens the neutrality of the article. 12.205.224.183 (talk) 08:17, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:NG2 Logo.jpg

Image:NG2 Logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Much Easier?

The latest edit adds:

"Due to mass amounts of complaining at the difficulty of the first game, Ninja Gaiden 2 is being made much easier with an auto-heal feature to make the game 'more accessible to casual players'."

Articles I've read imply the auto-heal will only heal a fraction of lost health, and I've read nothing declaring the game will be "much easier". Can anyone provide a source or should this be cleaner up?

The most recent EGM (Feb 2008) stated, "The series' legendary difficulty remains intact, too, ensuring that this game--even with a new regeneration-based health system--is still strictly for the hardcore." (pg. 51)

--24.174.100.102 (talk) 06:17, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

It is true that they are adding a difficulty level intended for those who are new to the series. It is called "Path of the Acolyte." Itagaki discussed this in a recent Gametrailers interview (http://www.gametrailers.com/player/30395.html). More info can be found here as well: http://xbox360.qj.net/Itagaki-on-Ninja-Gaiden-2-s-new-feature-Path-of-the-Acolyte/pg/49/aid/112525. He stated that it was going to be easier than the "Ninja Dog" difficulty from the previous game. --HeavenlyEire (talk) 08:27, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

So you can change the settings of difficulty sweet zarth4 (talk) 08:32, May 21, 2008 (UTC)

Sonia

Why does Sonia look almost exactly like Rachel? Seems really silly to me because the characters will get mixed up! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.148.91.103 (talk) 17:36, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Well yeah they look similar but you'd have to be pretty stupid to mix them up —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.145.177.113 (talk) 08:48, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Why does somebody keep removing/changing the reception section?

74.60.178.230 specifically. I setup the VG reviews table and summarized common praises and complainants but somebody keeps either removing it or changing it to only include the IGN review. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skeith (talk • contribs) 18:43, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Why is this page called "Ninja Gaiden II (2008 video game)"?

If the NES game is called "Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword of Chaos," why isn't this page simply called "Ninja Gaiden II"? Chibi Gohan (talk) 23:56, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Because the NES game is called Ninja Gaiden II as well... this helps with clarity
