Team NINJA has unveiled new details for Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus, the highly anticipated sequel to its PlayStation Vita launch title set for release next moth. Faster, bloodier, and more beautiful than ever, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus takes the legendary action videogame to the next level with the all new “Ninja Race” mode, tag missions involving any combination of two characters, potent new weapons for Ryu Hyabusa and a pre-order downloadable content (DLC) pack that includes limited edition female costumes. To premier these new game elements, Team NINJA has released a new trailer highlighting the modes, weapons and costumes.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Despite being the most powerful handheld console to be released in 2011, and being more than capable of handling ports of PS2, PS3, and even PS4 titles when the developers put the effort in, not every company was willing to take the time to ensure that the Vita version of their games turned out well - and as such a large number of games are hugely disappointing on the handheld simply due to the way they run.
In this article, I aim to examine these ports – what was disappointing about them (and why they should have been better than they were), as well as possible explanations on why they turned out the way they did - and ultimately come to a conclusion as to how well the Vita did as a machine capable of handling console ports during its lifespan."
NZGamer - "The PlayStation Vita, despite being a powerful, and great-looking piece of hardware, has been struggling in the market ever since it released. This is perhaps no better underlined than in this very article; not only did we not have ten "top" games to review on the system this year, we didn't post ten reviews full stop - so the list is made up of our top five (or seven, depending on how you count, as there's a three-way tie for 5th place) instead."
Tearaway is brilliant from start to finish. I think Media Molecule is the most imaginative and creative development team around.
Killzone Mercs is incredible. Tear one, AAA, top grade shooter capable of being right up there with any console FPS. I'm looking forward to the teams next game.
Batman AO got a lot of crap but it's an awesome game. The metroidvania game play fits perfectly in this world and it's right up there with the Arkham trilogy.

is this game multiplayer? either online or local?
I hope it looks better than the first NGSP on Vita. :/ It looks terrible, but still plays fantastically.
I hope they improve the body count and the blood. I remember reading a digital foundry article where they saw sigma 2 cut down on characters on screen for the framerate.
Question. Do you still have motion control boobs?
Sweet can't wait to pick this up.
