    NG 2 also has it so enemies dismembered bodies don't disappear. I've always thought the coolest thing about NG 2 is looking at the aftermath of a hardfought ambush that you struggled in and admiring your work. Not like you picked the fight but satisfying to see end result and also thinking what it'd be like to follow the trail of Ryu on his missions.

      Sigma 2 has overblown bloom effect and tons of blur as you can clearly see which ruins the texture details, only few upgrades are lighting and Ryu suit. That is not worth at all since NG2 trumps it by a huge margin.

PS3 Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 ran at a native 720p. sadly the PS3 Cell Processor and RSX was so complicated they couldn't figure out how to port the game so many if not all of the gameplay and graphics had to be redone on the PS3 which is why the games look so drastically different with effects on the PS3 not appearing on the 360 version and vise versa. also they wanted to include the same amount of enemies as the 360 but since they couldn't optimize the game for the Cell Processor they opted for a lower NPC count but gave them more health.

    I've also noticed that in Sigma 2, Ryu always has shurikens equipped and bound to the circle button and ranged weapon (bow or cannon) was equipped to your R2 button for aiming with L2.
    However watching gameplays in NG2, your ranged weapon is seperated and cannot equip both shurikens and the bow like NG2.
    I prefer NGS2 because of how versatile shurikens are to keep the combat flowing and cancel certain weapon combo strings as well as using the bow mid air after a flying swallow at the same time.

    I do not know why my comment was deleted AGAIN. NG2 is infinitely better than Sigma 2 for many reasons - No overblown bloom, No blur, Itagaki vision of hardcore gore - Blood textures, Delimbing system, massively higher count of enemies to keep the ultra fast paced high speed combat system. Even pause menu and move counter is red showcasing how brutal the game is, weapon upgrades are left to user to deal with unlike Sigma2 where they are given to you, levels cut out from Sigma2, the master collection ported PSVita game - Sigma2+ which is why the main menus for both Sigma and Sigma2 are exactly like PSVita but they didn't add that gore which PSVita release had, I think this is due to Switch garbage release, That console is only fit for remasters at poor framerate and quality so they didn't bother PS3 version and it needs some work too more than Vita probably, and they dumped this just to get console money. Still KT fanboys on steam defend this POS. Horrible.
    Then Master collection also removed boob physics from the whole game in Sigma2 not just sixaxis jiggle system, they censored even that. KT did an awful trash work, they do not care about PC at all so they stamped the bare bone release with 1st update they added res options and other bugs but it cannot hold a candle to Ninja Gaiden II from Xbox 360.
    Just watch Iconoclast, ShowR, TheGodFatherdictator, JTM all of these guys have NG2 videos just see how much potential the NG2 has in playing it and mastering it, Ryu Hayabusa is the fastest known killing machine that I know of. Only Vergil can rival him maybe Raiden from MGR but Bayonetta, Kratos cannot beat Ryu's intense action, this game is ULTRA fast and KT is so awful that they lied saying code lost BS drama esp when the releases of the NGB, NGII and NGS, NGS2 are just a year apart. Absolutely shameless KT. Now only way to experience this is either get Xbox One X or Series X (this one gets cutscenes to 60FPS from 30FPS) and looks glorious at high frame rate. OR wait for Xenia to emulate this like NGB Xemu.

They added improvements for NGII for Xbox S|X but they do not have code for offering the same on MC ? Fck them man. As for NG4, it won't happen. NG3RE already ruined the series.

I also really don't understand the weird censoring of blood and dismemberment, I mean a big part of NG3 story is that Ryu Gored so many people that he got cursed or whatever, so why even bother to censor it? Not like there's a younger audience they're trying to appeal to with the game still being M rated.

    For me it’s the lack of projectile weapons, some enemies in the original were pointless and bothersome, and I also liked how they gave a little more moves to u in the beginning, but a lot of enemies should have still been in the game, the giant Buddha was pointless to me, the Statue of Liberty was cool, but what I really didint like was that you couldn’t start the game over with all of your items and weapons etc

    They really overdid the bloom in Sigma, to the point where lighter colors look way too bright. Look at Irene in both versions, in NGII she looks fine but in Sigma 2 it looks as if she's emitting her own light. Also, at around 8:38, you can see the shiny glass windows in NGII, but in Sigma 2 they look much more flat.
    I can pick apart the graphics all day, but what's even worse is what happened to the gameplay. At first I assumed the things like the statue boss fight and the emptier parts of the building were part of the original NGII because there was criticism of the first Ninja Gaiden being too hard, but now I can see that these changes only affected Sigma 2, and that the original NGII was more in line with NG/NGB. I'll need to seek out the Xbox 360 NGII, it's clearly the superior version.

Bayonetta on the PS3 runs Natively at 1080p on PS3 but runs at 720p on the 360. but the 360 runs at a solid 60fps while the PS3 struggles to hold the 60fps target.

    Even though I like NGB much more than NG2... NG2 is still a great game. But since the Master Collection released recently I was able to see how awful Sigma2 is compared to the XBox-original. Much fewer enemy hordes, while pushing the difficulty artificially by increasing their damage-output so much that there are many, many one-shot attacks on MN.
    I'm currently at the start of the Venice chapters on Master Ninja. So far the most annoying oneshots (at full health) are the magician grabs, the descents of the golden dragon fiends in chapters 3 and 4 and the Izuna-like drops by the two bird-tengus in the Momiji-chapter. There's so much bullshit in Sigma2, it's astounding.
    Biggest dissappointment on Mentor so far for me was the famous battle against multiple Spider-Ninja-bosses + loads of incendiary shuriken ninjas in Chapter 11 in Hayabusa village in the original. In Sigma 2 you just slay 2 Spider Ninja bosses and that's it.
    Sigma 2 is really pathetic compared to the original.

    Digan lo que digan siempre será superior el original. Más enemigos en pantalla, sangre, dificultad y ni hablar de las armas eliminadas y secciones simplificadas en la versión sigma.

      creí que era la sigma la que añadía armas

    The original still kicks ass and is still better than the inferior Sigma version...
