emphasis on stories is killing gaming. it takes away from time they could be using to make the game better.
The cutscenes in TN games are 30 seconds long and are supposed to be pointless. The cutscenes in Bayonetta are up to 15 minutes long and look like they are supposed to tell you some story... kinda. The story is ridiculously bad and that's why DMC/Bayo approach is much worse.ShockingAlberto said:

sounds good all around. just have a better camera and i'll be pleased. oh, and please don't sell characters separately, make them unlockable.
i don't believe there will be only one playable.

Melee based competitive games never work well IMO.

I don't see how Move support works for NG.
It seems like you'd have to slow the action, which Ninja Gaiden fans will find unacceptable.

Meanwhile: Problem with Hayashi is that he tweaks ANYTHING that doesn't need to be tweaked. Sigma's? Add's new shitty bosses that weren't needed.
Granted, I'm thankful he BALANCED Sigma 2 when Ninja Gaiden 2 was a hot mess, but COME ON.
Edit: And Team Missions need to be less insane, I still have 6 missions
LOL NOT ANYMORE IF MY PS3's SAVES CAN'T BE RECOVERED. FFFFFFFFFFFFF.

Greater emphasis on story, eh? Hope that means stylish and badass cutscenes like in DMC and Bayonetta.

How was it in Sigma 2? I never played it.Totobeni said:

Just a bunch of missions where you kill all the bad guys either by yourself with a computer AI assisting you or online with a buddy.
It was divided into 4 sections: Acolyte, Warrior, Mentor, Master Ninja, Grand Master Ninja
Bosses started entering the fray in Mentor Mode, and Grand Master Ninja had you fight multiple bosses simultaneously.

8 player co-op goddamn. This might be the first Ninja Gaiden game I'll purchase.
_dementia said:
The co-op was completely separated, you play with a friend in some of the maps/level from the Story mode against Ninja and bosses, so I think they will keep the same idea for the co-op and competitive, I doubt it's story co-op.
you have a PS3 right? , seriously get it NOW, Ayane alone is so worth it, she is so freaking amazing.

Hell, I still need to play it online with someone, myself. The AI is shit for playing co-op so getting some of the missions completed is just impossible after a certain point.
Totobeni said:
<3 Ayane in every game she's in. She's fun as hell to use in Sigma 2, even with such low damage output. I'm expecting her and several other NG/Ryu-related DOA characters to show up in NG3 for multiplayer (maybe Kasumi and Ein/Hayate?)

The really should balance the missions whether you're playing alone or with others, unlike Sigma 2, the lag was just bad man V_V

This is probably the saddest thing in this thread, besides the move support thing.General Shank-a-snatch said:
If there's no traditional length sp this game is going to be garbage.

8 player multiplayer is fucking ludicrous for the genre. Games like MVC2 and MK9 struggle enough in getting 1 on 1 play down right; to add another 6 players to a genre that would be equally dependant on frame data in competitive play seems like a miss-step.
I can't see how an "improved" story will enhance a genre that relies on stupidly over-the-top combat, especially based on every TN story we've seen so far. I'm pretty indifferent on the shop news, and lukewarm on the difficulty talk given I doubt Hayashi will deliver.
I fully expect another iteration of Black that's significantly worst than Black with a whole load of shitty gimmicks that don't work in. Essentially what we got with the 2 Sigma titles, in fact I expect the lack of shitty gimmicks is what caused Hayashi to come to the conclusion that NG2/Bayonetta were stuck in the past.
Then again I'd like to be proven wrong and end up with an excellent action game.

Multi player Ninja Gaiden? WTF? I will not play that mode even if it's awesome out of principal.

wtf? It would be optional so what's the problem with that? Some ppl like Move. More Move support is good for those who have bought it and want more content for it.

You don't have to use it. They aren't going to build the game around Move, they'll build it around traditional controls and then figure out how to get Move to work on it. That's basically how all non-exclusive Move titles have worked.

Look at all of you ripping on multiplayer already. Give it a chance before condeming it. You haven't even seen anything of it yet and it's already the worst thing since SEGA killed your pony.
If you're not interested - don't play it. But don't begrudge some potential innovation in the genre just b/c you can't figure out how it would fit.
Let it actually come out and be garbage, then shit on it. Or, perhaps it'll come out, be brilliant, and change the evolution of the genre for the better.
I thought the co-op in NGS2 was quite a lot of fun when the netcode worked properly, and even solo w/ an AI partner.
