why there is no ps3 version ???damn it

Maybe there will be one later (possibly for the PS4 if it goes the same way as the first game).

 


Maybe this is why...

From an interview with Tomonobu Itagaki, the man mainly responsible for the DOA and Ninja Gadien series:

What did you think of the PS3 game Ninja Gaiden: Sigma? I'm told you won't even sign copies of the game...?

Itagaki: It was no good.

Why's that? I thought it was pretty good.

Itagaki: All you need to do is play Ninja Gaiden II and then try and play Sigma afterwards and you'll see why.

Despite the fact that it's on a 'next-generation' console there's no evolution whatsoever. That was made not by me, but one of my sub-ordinates who basically tried to copy the success of Ninja Gaiden.

Does that mean we'll never see NGII on PS3?

Itagaki: No because it's a 360 exclusive.

But Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden: Black were Xbox exclusives at the time...

Itagaki: We've announced it as an Xbox 360 exclusive, but I don't own Tecmo the company. But if that were to ever happen it would be a loss of face for everyone involved.

 

So the chances of NG2 going to the PS3 are pretty slim...


As far as I know Itagaki still don't own Tecmo. So ... who knows, after 1-2 years it is posible. Developers work for  money. Publishers want money too. There is a good chance to see NG2 for PS3 and MGS 4 for 360. Not this year of course.
