Ninja Gaiden 2 Black is the classic old school title. Born at a time when the market for action games was profoundly different. Difficult, forbidding, mechanically deep, and devoid of any simplification, with Ninja Gaiden 2 Itagaki had a clear idea of how to test players. With this new version of the title, which takes its full measure from Ninja Gaiden 2 and Sigma 2, the developers a milestone of action that will be able to make the historical fans of the series happy and bring closer all those players looking for a demanding and satisfying challenge, especially if they are children of the various souls like and the like. A great pity for not daring more from the renovation point of view, leaving intact all the gameplay with attached camera glitches, the real unbeatable boss of the game.
