Ninja Gaiden Sigma For Playstation Vita Next Year

Ninja Gaiden Sigma is still on the works but developer Team Ninja is planning to include play styles from Ninja Gaiden 3 presumably indicating that the former is not exactly an enhanced port of the latter.

The bits is the ultimate portable games station. It will have the best tech, online and games. Who needs anything else when you have a Vita?

Can't wait for Vita and Ninja Gaiden Sigma is one of the best hardcore games in a while.

Edit:

Yes, I would probably prefer an unchanged version of sima, but i will keep my eye on this and see how it turns out.

If it is just as challenging I'll probably pick it up. If they softened it up for casuals I will pass.

SamPao4584d ago

I think they will add another dificulty lvl like, casual or auto. That should not hold you back buying the game as there is still everything else :)

ABizzel14584d ago

My biggest concern with Vita (which really isn't a concern) is how are these ported/cross-platform games going to work out.

I have Ninja Gaiden Sigma already for my PS3, but I wouldn't mind buying the game as a PSN title where I can have it for both my PS3 and PSV. However, I don't want to go out and spend $30 or $40 on just the Vita version, nor do millions of other people who inevitably get the Vita. It doesn't make sense to charge people twice for a game they have or can get else where for less.

The solution to me is that they should offer a free download code in things like Collector's edition of games ($79.99 versions) where you get the PS3 and PSV version for newer games. While older games should become PSN download ($30) and work on the PS3 and PSV. Don't make people pay $60 then a another $40 to play their one game at home and one the go.

To me this is probably the deciding factor of how well Vita does. It's going to do good regardless simply because of the tech, and prior success with the PSP, but if Sony works this out to where it's satisfying for the consumer, while still making enough profit for them then Vita is going to be a goldmine.

Too bad Ninja Gaiden 3 seems to ruin everything great about the series. Otherwise, this would have been a great idea. Pass.

supremacy4584d ago (Edited 4584d ago )

Now I need capcom to port resident evil zero and the gamecube version of resident evil one with trophies and we will be all set.

Note: resident evil 2 and resident evil 3 should had been remade for the gamecube in similar fashion. But due to lazyness and costs, they opt out and instead proceeded work on other things.

Hozi4584d ago

This is awesome...The option to have both play styles? c'mon guys you have to admit that will be pretty interesting and add more depth to the game.

They need to make a true sequel to Ninja Gaiden 2, that was the most satisfying combat I've experienced in a hack n slash game.

micdagoat191590d ago

been playing 1&2 on and off since they were released. I usually will play until I get frustrated then take another year off lol. Nver tried 3 or the 4th one even though they are in my backlog.

Domestupidname1590d ago

I tried to go back to Sigma but good god those controls are just insufferable. Couldn't do it.

NeonEnigma3312d ago

Is PS Now fairly consistent with a good internet connection? Do the games offer trophy support?

SamPao3312d ago (Edited 3312d ago )

yes and yes. Go read on forums, you only hear good things once your connection is good enough. (and you don't need a very fast one)
Trophy support is there.

did you even watch the vid?
on 20 seconds they tell you about trophy support :P

JoGam3312d ago (Edited 3312d ago )

They need to bring Socom II

NeonEnigma3312d ago

No, i was mainly concerned with hearing a users opinion of the service so i just commented. But I will be giving this a try tonight

morganfell3312d ago

Yes it works and works very well. Trophy Support is there as well as cloud saves for any game progression.

bouzebbal3312d ago

Doesn anyone know if PS Now supports 3D gaming?
U3 and Stardust were good in 3D.

morganfell3311d ago (Edited 3311d ago )

@abzdiine,

As of January, no 3D support. Now is not set up to properly detect your 3D display and manual choice is off since 3D requires a massive amount of bandwidth. Frame packing doesn't work well of bandwidth that currently supports smooth play in standard mode.

I would think it could be done without a hit but they would have to substantially increase the intial cache size during the game launch on the resident system (PS4, PS3, Vita, PS TV, or Sony TV) that is running Now.

S2Killinit3312d ago

yeah. I have never tried it with a fighting game yet. But the games I've tried worked just fine. Never tried multiplayer either though. I didn't eve know you could also play multiplayer games on PS NOW.

Scatpants3312d ago

It works great on my vita. My internet connection is fairly good, but not the best.

Bobby Kotex3312d ago

When I beta tested it, I had a crappy DSL connection and it worked flawlessly.

Skate-AK3312d ago

I have 18mb/s download and it worked pretty well for me. The game I played was a simple hunting one though.

NeonEnigma3312d ago

Thanks everybody for feedback, i was pretty intent on believing that streaming a game to my ps4 would work like crap, but after streaming shadow of the colossus to my ps4 im actually pretty excited about it. Its definately going to help me knock out some of my backlog!

Jedislayer3312d ago (Edited 3312d ago )

I love ps now, think about 100 + ps3 games streamed right away to your tv. Don't have to wait for gamefly, don't need to get up and go to the store. Instantly streamed to you from an internet connection. Think about it. gamefly two disc plan runs you 22.00 a month for two disc and sometimes you have to wait. 2-4 days for a game. $44.00 for 3 months gets you unlimited access to ps3 games and soon ps2 and ps1. If you are an mmo player you pay 15.00 a month just to play that one game. i think the value is perfect. Even when psn goes down. Think about mmo's when they go down or go down for maintenance you still pay 15.00 a month for that one game. Not trying to fanboy here but ps now will be a good investment. Think about it you don't have to hook up your old console just to play a game.

freshslicepizza3312d ago

it will be a good investment (for me) once they have ps4 games.

andresegr3312d ago

Playstation Now won't include Playstation 4 titles while the Ps4 remains on the market, it doesn't make any sense.

Death3312d ago

Sony has already said they will release PS4 games for the PS4 on the service.

freshslicepizza3312d ago

@andresegr,
"Playstation Now won't include Playstation 4 titles while the Ps4 remains on the market, it doesn't make any sense."

why not? sony already mentioned this along with ps1 and ps2 games.

http://www.gamespot.com/art...

rental outlets are becoming harder and harder to find. they may not see much value adding it to the pay by the month plan since they have the plus service and it's monthly free give-aways but it could be a great option to rent games.

_-EDMIX-_3312d ago (Edited 3312d ago )

"Playstation Now won't include Playstation 4 titles while the Ps4 remains on the market, it doesn't make any sense"

Not sure what you mean. PS now has PS3 titles on PS3...

Not sure why you wouldn't have PS4 titles on PS4. I say this based on with PS4 you have buttons, features etc that make more sense to only be streamed from another PS4.

I very much see them streaming PS4 games in the future as I see no reason not to.

I'm not trolling either, but what would make you think the couldn't or wouldn't?

WelkinCole3312d ago

As a core gamer. Would you consider it going forward even though you might already own a PS1,PS2 and PS3?.

I am actually surprised that its getting good reviews from core gamers.

xer03311d ago

I'm looking forward to playing, Siren: Bloodcurse again! :)

Deadlead3312d ago (Edited 3312d ago )

I tried PS Now for a month and am now really intrigued by the games on demand model, the convenience of such a massive catalogue at your fingertips is awesome. But I have ps3 so the value just isn't there at the moment. Also I couldn't help but wonder why there aren't more Sony exclusives featured on Now?

SoapShoes3312d ago

Yeah every Sony published game should be there! It is great on PS Vita!

StormLegend3312d ago

I love PS now, it just needs more AAA games.

WickedLester3312d ago (Edited 3312d ago )

Agreed. That and games from previous generations besides PS3. Where are all the PS1/PS2 classics?

Death3312d ago

Initial focus is on the PS3 with PS/PS2/PS4 games to be added later.

KryptoniteTail3312d ago

The best games to play on PSNow would be RPGs, Card Games, Board Games, pretty much anything turn-based or non-reflex related. On the opposite side, Fighting games, for example, are absolute trash on PSNow because if you're even half serious about them you don't want any interference, period. Normal online tends to be bad enough as it is for serious players.

I would also stay from anything like 1001 Spikes or Shmups.

Also, when is the price going to drop to a reasonable $10 per month/$100 per year?

Simco8763311d ago

Yeah $44 for 3 months is kind of trash.

Joe9133311d ago

You can tell by your comment you either never really tried PSnow or your internet sucks.
