IGN Closing Comments:
"Ninja Gaiden II is easily one of the best action games on Xbox 360. The depth in combat is as exciting as ever and the new gameplay additions and changes only add to the experience. The game has been focused from its predecessor into a more pure action affair, for better or for worse, but the formula remains the same -- frustrating camera and all. It's challenging and rewarding. It looks great in motion and it feels great to know you're the one at the helm, directing this bloody dance. It has its foibles and doesn't feel as rich as the last Ninja Gaiden, but this sequel still offers up a great ride. Start doing thumb exercises now. Your poor fingers are going to be worn out by the time you get through this adrenaline pumping blast."
Presentation 8.0
Ninja Gaiden II reeks of style while the story just reeks.
Graphics 9.0
It has to be seen in motion to be truly appreciated… as long as the framerate holds up.
Sound 8.0
The soundtrack matches the feeling of the game and the effects get the job done. The Japanese audio track is a nice bonus.
Gameplay 9.0
If only the camera worked a little better. This is one deep, challenging and rewarding game.
Lasting Appeal 8.0
This is a game that is worth replaying on the harder difficulties.
OVERALL - 8.7 Great
