Lets look at it this way.

Ninja gaiden is extremely hard, but hell the flying swallow can kill pretty much everything you encounter very quickly.

God of War has many different combos, sure you can mash buttons but that wont be the best way to play it.

Ninja gaiden II, I did nothing but spam whatever triangle is on the 360, i forget. I killed most baddies and groups of baddies very easily.

God of War II, Still button mashing as some people claim, but I played through some really fun puzzles.


Oh, everyone has to remember. God of War II came out near the end of the PS2 life cycle, Many people didn't buy it because they were waiting for 360/PS3. I bet God of War III Will sell over 5 million life time. Feel free to quote me on that if you want. But every single person i know that plays games loves god of war.

The wall trick worked in some places in the first Ninja Gaiden / Black, but you still have to block a lot of stuff (and of course you can't use it on many bosses).

As for NG2, you may catch one enemy with that but others will be throwing crap at you, attacking you or grabbing you. Again you can't win fights without blocking (which requires reflexes) and using movement in a smart way. The safest/easiest move I found was to jump and do a slashing attack while falling, but even this is not foolproof at all. You'd be getting explosive shurikens, they can still grab you and the dismembered enemies will still do their "kamikaze" attacks on you.
