Ninja Gaiden has returned with another Ryu Hayabusa adventure for all you wannabe stealth assassins.

The first outing on the original Xbox (post the early Gaiden years) was a visual treat full of delicious gore for fans, does its sequel on Xbox 360 maintain this standard?

You'll have to head on into our review for the full rundown. If you want to see more of what the game has to offer, be sure to check out our Ninja Gaiden II game page for more.

This game looks awesome but i couldnt even get past the third level on the original...i suck :P.

I'm going to do JB's trade in deal and get this today. Never played the original xbox version but it looks pretty good and i'm just trading in games i never play so yeah. Win Win it seems.

EDIT - Ok traded in some games and playing this now. f*** it is awesome. Yes the camera does suck a bit but this is such a fun game to play. It's faced paced, tons of action and a good selection of weapons. I'm playing on the eaisest setting for now and im at around mission 7 or 8, whatever russia is, and its driving me crazy. The combat is pretty good and once you work out when to block and counterattack it really starts to shine and can link some really spiffy combos together that look awesome when you finish each person off with a killing blow. The Scythe is my fav weapon right now followed by the claws. Glad i traded in 3 games in JB and got this for free

yep i'm likely this too, good fun, just like Ninja Gaiden on the xbox. Easier thus far though!
