Ninja Gaiden 2: Sonia officially unveiled

U K Narayan said:
This is an unlockable costume. Maybe you accidentally selected it in the new game booting process?

Well it was the first time I played Black on the 360, so I didn't have anything unlocked at all. Still, I enjoyed it.
 
U K Narayan said:
Rachel's outfit was ridiculous, but she is far better looking than Sonia.

Whatever, though.

Yeah I didn't like Rachel's outfit either and it's not because it's too revealing either. They could of come up with a better one but I guess Itagaki just like that kinky shit!

It's really could have, or could've mate. >:P
 
They just bumped the "exclusive content" back to the 17th.

Concept art -> something that you could see coming from MGS, looks pretty good.

3d -> wtf

Well yeah at least in the Ninja Gaiden games they can't get the females to look right.
 
It just hit me that it doesn't explicitly state the content will be on the Xbox Live Marketplace tomorrow. I have a sneaking suspicion it could just be some need screens and stuff appearing on this website.

a likely scenario. as you say, there is no mention of the content actually being available via the marketplace

I'm thinking the same thing. Maybe a countdown screensaver:lol



:-(
 
Well, we'll know today for sure. I didn't actually think it would be LIVE content in the first place (although it probably will be gamerpics and the like), but I don't think it's anything as weaksauce like a few scanty wallpapers either. There is absolutely no way they would delay the release of the content for something like that. Right? *sighs* Cautious optimism mode.
 
First, the GDC "demo" was just a video of a demonstration. Then they canceled the Campus Tour which was coming to my school. Now no "exclusive content". The day isn't over yet, but still, WTF?
 
This blog is an epiphany from god :P

well that sucks that we got no "exclusive content" in the end. I wonder if someone just forgot to update it ?

I found out about it here. Apparently it started on the DOATEC forums with a poster named "Female Tengu". Don't kill me if they are bullshit, but they seem pretty plausible. Could they have leaked from when they showed off the beta?
 
Strider2K99 said:
Wait, isn't Reverse Wind rolling? You need to friggin acquire it now? o_O

Sounds like bullshit to me.
Previews have said that in the first level a lot of encounters end with body dropping a technique scroll teaching you moves and rewarding you with a small amount of achievement points.

We need USD in here. He's played the first two levels. If these achievements are consistent with the scrolls he saw that will give this leak credibility. Ayane did give you a scroll that talked about the reverse wind in the original NG, too.

There weren't any actual achievements in the beta, but I did find scrolls for most of those techniques. I'm assuming the ones I didn't find were ones I didn't reach yet. Though how those achievements read, it makes it sound like you have to find scrolls to be able to do those moves, but in the beta I could perform all those moves by default (except for the ninpo techniques). You have the Counter Attack, Flying Swallow, Reverse Wind, etc. from the very start. The scrolls I found were just there to explain how to do them.
 
Hype rising.

DMC4 didn't fill the action hack n slash hole in me anywhere near as much as I'd hoped, can't wait for this.

Yea I can't wait either. Lucky we have GTAIV to consume time before this is released. DMC4 did nothing for me, personally.
 
Assuming that list is true, the achievements look more rewarding for this game than DMC4. The ones for DMC4, was a boring grindfest. Especially the 1 million Proud Souls and 1 million Red Orbs. Totally boring crap. If they allowed the game to only be played with Nero, it would've made it a much better experience.
 
Good stuff, the achievements look might proper. However, when all is said and done we are still without the content. Just a reminder from reality.
