Famitsu confirmed Ayane will be a playable character.
Really?
I mean is it worth porting? How did Sigma sell??? I think it's sales were probably inflated due to the lack of games on Ps3 at the time of release.
I hate it with a passion and will be patiently waiting for GOW3
Goos news for fans is that it will probably be the definitive version as the first one was.

Is this just an updated port or something new all together?

It wasn't so much exclusive, more that the PS2 version wasn't finished yet. The Xbox got a gimped version of Substance, while the PS2 got the complete version.
You also seem to be ignoring RECENT history, i.e. MGS3. Where was my MGS3S on the Xbox?

Well, I expect at least three things
1.better resolution (at least native 720P)
2.no bugs
3.Ayane as a playable character (confirmed)

NG2 was a great game, with the famously awesome gameplay and kinetic melee combat intact, and improved.
my beefs were the ridiculous overabundance of projectiles coming at you (turn up the difficulty? even more projectiles! that's fun!) and removing the exploration/maps/puzzles/etc, which were something I loved in the NG1.
but really, great game. ps3 guys should buy it if it does come out.

NG Sigma and NG2 were the same engine. It's just that NG2 was doing a lot more on screen than NG Sigma was.
Tecmo just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the Japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Ninja Gaiden Σ2, nor will they purchase any of Tecmo's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Tecmo has alienated an entire market with this move.
Tecmo, publicly apologize and cancel Ninja Gaiden Σ2 for PS3 or you can kiss your business goodbye.

I was under the impression that the top secret tecmo game for ps3 was Quantum Theory?

aaaaaand you lost.HorribleJames said:
The team already has one title under their belt on the platform and can only improve from there. Personally, I'm very interested in seeing how this unfolds. I may be tempted to buy it again if they can iron out some of the wrinkles that really hurt the game.BeeDog said:Fix the framerate of a PS3 port release?
:lol All the evidence thus far is that it will probably turn out to be worse.
balance
resolution
poor textures in some areas
framerate
game pace (Ayane couldn't possibly be worse than Rachel)

That and a few other tweaks and the game would be that much better. No need to spend development time adding weapons since the current variety is just about spot on as it is.
That said, if the framrate is improved, I'd love to have an option to switch back to an unstable framerate just for the staircase scene.

I just hope making Sigma was a learning experience for the Team, otherwise we are going to be looking at more technical issues.

They published Vampire Rain too.gofreak said:
Go to Wiki and you'll see that Microsoft will publish damn near anything. xD

Just because you publish the game does not mean you own the IP, MS also published Mass Effect and Gears of War and they don't own those IPs, Sony is publishing Heavy Rain and has published Final Fantasy VII and they don't own those IPs.

No, Sony owns the Resistance IP.
AranhaHunter said:
Whilst I know publishing a game doesn't automatically imply ownership (although it usually does for original titles in Sony's case - Sony owns the LBP IP etc.), I would have assumed MS would only publish a closely affiliated franchise on the condition that it would be exclusive
I mean, that MS was publishing was the reason held out why we should actually pay attention to the 'only on xbox' label this time! :lol EXGN said:

That's one thing Sony does right with its third party stuff. If they're publishing, they make sure they own the IP. Ratchet, Resistance, LBP, White Knight, etc. will never go multiplat.
I think Heavy Rain is the only IP from one of their second parties that they don't' own.

In these cases, the most they can hope for is timed exclusivity. They'd be hard pressed to work out a deal for something permanent.gofreak said:Whilst I know publishing a game doesn't automatically imply ownership (although it usually does for original titles in Sony's case - Sony owns the LBP IP etc.), I would have assumed MS would only publish a closely affiliated franchise on the condition that it would be exclusive

If Microsoft's paying (via moneyhats or publishing), they're probably paying for timed exclusivity. Eternal Sonata, Bioshock, etc.

I'm guessing here, but I think that no exclusive is exclusive forever, there's a time limit to exclusivity, so MS published NGII and it did get a 6 month to 1 year exclusivity on it.
