By now you should all know the story behind Ninja Gaiden Sigma on PS3. You should know that it's a remake of one of the best games on Microsoft's big black box. You should know that tons of new stuff has been added and you should also be aware that it's all been wrapped up in bright sparkling HD graphics that only PS3 can do. If you liked the idea of Genji: Days of the Blade but were disappointed that the game sucked, we guarantee that Sigma will plug that gap. As well as a complete graphical ...
Ninja Gaiden Sigma
Much more than just another hack and slasher
Jun 14, 2007
Lush 1080p visuals aside, there's nothing new here. It's a third-person action game with fixed cameras, environmental puzzles and fighting in between. Think Onimusha, Genji or Resident Evil. But what makes Ninja Gaiden interesting is how polished it is. Specifically the fighting which is taut, slick and muscular; the kind of thing you'd expect to see in a ...   » Read Full Ninja Gaiden Sigma preview

As we watched a demo of the latest build of Ninja Gaiden Sigma, we felt a little like a broken record. “Ooh, is that new? Ah, that was from the original Xbox version right? Oh! We remember that guy!” If youve been following our coverage on Sigma, youll know that despite the new bells and whistles and visual makeover, its basically the same game at heart. Still, whether youre a virgin to the relentless challenges of the original title, or have already mastered the fine art of ...   » Read Full Ninja Gaiden Sigma preview
Ninja Gaiden Sigma hands-on
Taking a stab at Team Ninja's latest remix
Mar 23, 2007
As much as comparisons between the movie and game industry get tossed around, one things for sure: Our remakes are always better. Just take a day to play Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes and then take in a viewing of Ashton Kutchers Guess Who? if you need proof. Because unlike say, the Star Wars movies, most games stand to benefit from added runtime, new characters and a graphical facelift. And what better way to test our little theory than with a little hands-on time with Ninja Gaiden Sigma on ...   » Read Full Ninja Gaiden Sigma preview

The former Xbox 360 exclusive is reinvented for the PS3
Feb 2, 2007
The war between Xbox 360 and PS3 is over. Sonys mighty machine stands laughing triumphantly over the smoking corpse of Microsofts workhorse. At least, it does in Japan, where it took less than a month for sales of PS3 to outstrip those of the Xbox 360. And thats good news indeed. Why? Because the immediate and brilliant result of such a trouncing is that some of Xboxs finest, so-called “exclusive,” games are now appearing on PS3, complete with all the visual upgrades and ...   » Read Full Ninja Gaiden Sigma preview
