No, what it comes down to is that Ninja Gaiden II was not as good as the first one (Itagaki said that had to do with the limited size of the 360's dvds); therefore, it was a disappointment, and that explains its Metacritic and Game Rankings scores.

On the other hand, Sigma was a remake of the first game which was better than NGII; therefore, Sigma is also better than NG II and that accounts for its review scores. Ninja Gaiden I was a AAA game. At best Ninja Gaiden II could only be called a B+, but that is a better score than most reviewers (the people that are suppossably qualified and capable enough at reviewing games to be able to get paid for doing so) across the vast majority of publications were willing to give that game.

Ninja Gaiden II did not live up to its predecessors. Now you people will probably put some kind of spin on it to make it seem as if it did since its on your beloved 360's, but again what you say will go against the majority of qualified opinions.

lol. Actually Itagaki said NG2 is the definitive version and is everything he ever wanted to make in a Ninja Gaiden game. While panning the PS3s Sigma game...

"The out-spoken developer also revealed his displeasure over 2007s PlayStation 3 revamp of the original instalment, Ninja Gaiden Sigma.  Discussing the title, a visually polished port of the Xbox original, Itagaki-san said, "It was a weird chimera of a game, with some things here and some things there.  From a game design standpoint, I don;t think it was done well at all.  This [Ninja Gaiden II] is the definitive version of Ninja Gaiden...I look at NG2 and I think its the culmination of everything Ive done, but its also a chance for me to change how I think about game design."
In other words, its a safe bet to conclude that a Sigma edition of Ninja Gaiden II isnt on the cards for PS3 anytime...well, ever." 

 

So yeah, please don't troll or post false information...
