""Something isn’t right,” I said to one of my TXB colleagues after playing a review copy of Ninja Gaiden II on our debug system. I know what kind of pride Team Ninja has, and the feeling was that the reviewable debug build was not representative of what the boxed copy would offer consumers.

I was right.

As some of you may know, TeamXbox.com held off on its review of Ninja Gaiden II because of the very reason described above. Sometimes, “review” copies of games don’t quite run right; such was the case with the code of Ninja Gaiden II we had. It was a bit of a risk on our part to wait– no site wants to miss the boat on a big review. But with boxed copy in hand for comparison’s sake, we now know that pulling back on the reins was the correct thing to do in this circumstance." - TeamXbox

 

Appears the review copies of NG2 were flawed. Nice job TeamXbox on waiting even though everyone else was posting their's.

 Can you provide a link and/or another quote on the evidence they offered(other than it being "a bad review copy)? I love the gaiden franchise but them sending a faulty copy of the game to get reviewed by sites like IGN and others seems extremely unprofessional and unlikely and if they did it intentionally they deserve the ratings they got lol.
