1 - No multiplayer

How would this game have multiplayer anyways? It is needless-bashing for a great game.

1.2 - ill

agree to that i think that if i was playing it and saw that option i would go wtf? seriously people the whole point is kicking a$$ in single player the mp would suck due to so many people jumping around to avoid attacks all the time i know i would.

1.3 - its not really a NEED!

2 - ??Agreed????.^^^^^^

I was thinking the same thing due to the speed of this being posted by only Sony fanboys.

Agreed...

Multi player would be stupid in this game.

The fast action gameplay makes it silly to even think such a thing.

TI has already said it would be ridiculous a while back this isn't anything 360 owners did not already know.

Ps3 Sigma got a ton of downloadable content so I hope they atleast provide that.

3.2 - you've misunderstood me

extra content is 1 thing but the need for MULTIPLAYER is becoming annoying. i cant see where you read i was against content or extras i just stated that some games should be treated like other forms of entertainment. having to battle online isn't always going to make a game better

this most likely will be in PS3 too. The Ninja Gaiden Sigma earned a lot of sales and popularity among the PS3 gamers

8 - I'm more of a sony guy but...

Not every game needs multiplayer to be great. This will be a great game with OR without multiplayer.

Ninja Gaiden is fine as it is

I think that the problem with many gamers nowadays is that they're spoiled. They expect EVERY game to have EVERYTHING.

Which is impossible

10.1 - Good point.

Only Sony fanboys that never played NG emphasize the lack of multi-player. It's no different than announcing that Mass Effect is single-player.

I would love for this game to be on ps3 eventually even if its a time exclusive for 360, but I doubt it will happen.

13 - Somebody has no clue about NG

I don't recall multi-player being mentioned by Itagaki. Anyone that has played NG knows that MP is not desirable.

However, co-op would be cool. But that was never mentioned, either.

13.1 -

I don't know who you're talking to but the notion of multi player in a NG game has already been shot down by TI.

JS
"Is there any possibility of a multiplayer mode in Dragon Sword? Was that ever considered?"

TI
" Yes, every time we make a new Ninja Gaiden game, I think about the possibilities of multiplayer content. But when you really come down to it, Ninja Gaiden is a solitary game. You have a solitary ninja going around killing enemies -- it's really more geared to a single player. I mean, let's say you're playing the game and some other guy comes, he could even be an NPC and not necessarily a player controlled character, and they start fighting so much better than you. Wouldn't that piss you off?"

http://www.joystiq.com/2007...
Although Dragon Sword is NG2's DS brethern he was talking about the Franchise" Ryu's adventure's being not suited for Multi player. I can't find the other comment.

Do you understand? Dude(TI) speaks in riddles saying many things at the same time every time he speaks. Who are talking to when you say somebody doesn't know about NG?.

16 - Not surprising

No need to tack on a multiplayer portion to the game just because it can be done. As long as the single player is engaging and and replayable, then Ninja Gaiden 2 will succeed just as the first one did. Besides, I'm sure this won't be a 5 hour game.
