Forums - Gaming - Devil May Cry series or NInja Gaiden series.

DMC is better overall if only because it has more installments in the series (DMC 1, 3, and 4 are all stellar or very good). Ninja Gaiden really only has one current gen one so far, but that will change in a matter of months.

I love both very much.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

DMC all the way.

I have clocqued over 300 hours on both NGS and DMC4 and non stop UT gets really boring after a while in NGS...............

NGS just doesn't reward you at all for knowing the combos and doing them.......

NGS ladder ranking is too tedious aside from mission mode too ( having to replay the whole game to improve your score sucks ass after a while( 100 hour full game Karma run sucks ass, ask the pros...). 

 



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

DMC rewards you with the combo system and has the DT. Advanced players keep themselves busy by jump canceling, parrying and keeping combos up aswell as not getting hit once during entire missions.

NG (at an advanced) level came down to wall jump slashes, and absorbing essence right after landing on the floor from a jump to use an UT as efficiently as possible .

DMC has an over the top, over dramatic, ridiculous story that can still be enjoyed.

NG's story is pure crap.

Both games are great but I'd have to give DMC1,3, and 4 nod. We will see how NG2 does.



I've only played the NGS demo, the beginning of DMC3, and the DMC4 demo, but at this point in time I'd have to say NG > DMC.

But I'd take GoW over both any day. :P

Especially since I've heard that NG's story isn't very interesting.

God of war has better gameplay than ninja gaiden though..


EDIT: ok, I got a little over excited.

God of War's gameplay is just running around bashing stuff. That's why people liked to compare Heavenly Sword, a game not even close to Ninja Gaiden, to it. Did you ever play through Sigma, Leo-J? It plays better than God of War. Ninja Gaiden 2 will destroy every other action game ever.

 You are joking right ? Just because a game is faster , it doesnt means its better .

 

DMC is my choice . I adored the story of it , and my favorite should be DMC3 DA :)

@hunter_alien:

The AI in Ninja Gaiden is way better, the combat system has more depth, and the game is 60FPS. It's better than God of War in every way.

 If you ignore GOW's story, traversal platforming, level design and awesome puzzle elements, then yes. NG is better than GOW in every way.... Saying that GOW is "just going around bashing stuff" is pretty ignorant.

Also, Ninja Gaiden Sigma was 60 FPS, NG and NG black were not. And I'm pretty sure GOW2 was 60 fps.

 



the only dmc game i bought was dmc2, after the first few bosses i traded it in

the only gaiden game ive bought was sigma on ps3 which was superb totally glued till the end.

so id say gaiden, il certainly be getting this on 360 this year

in fact gaiden 2 is th only game im pissed that wont ever be coming to ps3, but oh well u cant have everything can you.



...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...

Ninja Gaiden all the way. Ever since the good ol' original, it has been a fantastic, tough series. And honestly, you can't beat ninjas! lol
I would recommend maybe to DL Ninja Gaiden Black on Live, DL all of the oldies on the VC, and get the DS game. They are all awesome.
BTW, I'm playing Dragon Sword right now and loving every minute of it.



Just kiss the tip.

MASSIVE LOVE @ MESOTETO. Thank you!!!!! Tenchu was a much better NINJA game xD

Okay, while Tenchu may have realism on their side when it comes to Ninjas, the actual games blow so hard it makes me wonder if you are being sarcastic.
