Ninja Gaiden 2: Sigma

I guess I'm the only one who's heard next to nothing good about the original Ninja Gaiden 2 for 360.

Everyone I know who's played it labeled it as a glitchy game with broken (but exploitable) emeny AI, broken weapons, and a horrid camera. Doesn't help that I think it's creator deserves to rot in hell either.

I guess they plan to fix everything that was wrong with the 360 version in the "enhanced" PS3 version?
 
I liked NG2 except for two things:

1. Atrocious camera. This is unforgivable. Your game should be difficult, but this camera makes it laughably stupid.

2. Enemies can hit you before the game starts. I had a boss hit me for half my life before the screen even brightened up after hitting 'continue.' Why this is possible is baffling.
 
I've yet to actually beat this game, however, I plan to do so eventually. It's a good game, certainly the best hacknslash since that Ninja Turtles game for SNES.

Itagaki says:

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.
