X Box 360 "Ninja Gaiden II" Review

By Camilla Bertelsen

This video game is a beautifully designed, graphically alluring, and completely not the kind of game you want your eight year old to play. But if you are looking for the ultimate fighting demons and monsters type of video game, X Box 360 has one just for you.

The features in this very realistic battle to the death video game are enhanced to the point that you won't believe your eyes. The blood looks incredibly real, even if you are playing very close to the screen.

If you are familiar with the original "Ninja Gaiden" you will find the "Ninja Gaiden II" has some dramatic new changes such as bigger areas to fight in, more opponents to fight and enlarged the size of opponents. There are also new weapons to choose from which you can upgrade as you move forward through the video game. X Box 360 has done a bang up job improving on what was already a great game. They have kept the aspect of magic but there is no more importance in making better monsters or demons than solving puzzles and such.

This video game does include a story line but the best part of the game is the fighting and killing of the beasts and the friends that go along with them. The weapons of choice are the swords and the ability to upgrade your sword enables you to kill bigger and more dangerous monsters. Only certain swords will kill certain monsters, so the levels you complete, the better your sword is, the better chance you have to make it through this addictive video game.

The original "Ninja Gaiden" in my opinion, was a bit more challenging than what X Box 360 created with this second edition. However, that could simply be because I am accustomed to the first game and thus the second one seemed a bit easier, although still quite challenging and entertaining. Newcomers to the video game might not think so, as they have not had the experience from the first edition; either way, this video game is well worth the time and energy you put into it and I recommend it if you are looking to kick some serious monster butt.
