I think those of you PS fans who havent played Ninja Gaiden 2 just dont understand. But then again you wont realise what your missing if you havent played the original version.
The gore ended up being more than just cosmetic. It affected the feel to the game. The hit of the blade actually felt like it. The complete mess after made you belive that Sword was as sharp as they say.
It felt Ninja like. The NGS2 videos have lost all of that.
