This is huge. NG2 getting Game of the month over MGS4. Not so much that it tells us a lot about the qualities of MGS4 (I'm sure the reviews will be brilliant overall), but that this indicates that NG2 might become a sleeper hit.

I didn't believe much in NG2 before this. But now, perhaps it is a +90% title that can sell 1.5 million copies. Maybe even get close to 2 million?

Havent you heard? 1.5mil is a flop.

^ Yes reviews are untrustworthy. However on the cutscene note, watching the first 10 mins of MGS4 only 2 mins max is gameplay. Very worrying.

Scores

Ninja Gaiden II: A, A-, A- (Game of the Month)

Pros: Visceral combat, video mode

Cons: Corny cut scenes, awkward camera

 

Anyone know what this means, "video mode"?

Good for NG2 :D

Wow, this is something of a coup for the 360. MGS4 is supposed to be one of the biggest PS3 titles this year.

I'm sure NG2 will be amazing, but I expect the trend to have it a few points below MGS4 from most reviewers.
