Ninja Gaiden Black is in my top 5 video games of all time, but even I’m tempted to. Pick up this collection. The only thing that makes me hesitant is that I’m just not as quick as I used to be, and I worry I won’t be able to complete them - I did finish both 1 and 2 when I was you get and more capable.
Sigma is considerably easier than Black. So playing Black on Ninja Dog is about as difficult as Sigma on Normal. Theres no need to play Sigma on Ninja Dog, its not fun and offers absolutely no challenge…its easy as it is on Normal. Having beaten Black on MN and Sigma on MN ITs not even a contest…outside of the ridiculous Rachel levels(shes awful to control) MN on Sigma wasn’t even has hard as VH on Black.
But having said that it could be down to some balance issues and interface improvements…Not sure. I only ever played through Sigma twice. Once on Normal and then I just beat Doku on Hard and Very hard at the end of Chapter 2 to unlock MN then beat MN start to finish. Yes you can bypass difficulty by beating Doku but he isn’t easy for newbies.
In Black you have to beat the game from start to finish 3 times to unlock MN…Black however is my all time fav Video game so i’ve beaten it like 50+ times over the last 15 years.
But yeah…please don’t play any of these games on Easy. It sort of defeats the purpose of what these games are. You can play NG 3 RE on EAsy as that is horribly cheap on harder difficulties. But 1 and 2 need to be played on Normal. Especially Sigma 1. Sigma 2 i’ve never played but I hear its easier than Vanilla 2 as well.
I’ve made the decision to buy the game as a buddy of mine is buying it and playing them for the first time so I’ll play along with him as we are both deploying with the military at the same place and we’ll be sleeping in the same room for 6 months so plenty of time to play through the NG trilogy together! It’ll be a lot with PSO2NG releasing soon as well but I’m sure we’ll manage!
So the Pre load for this is up. Its Seperated into the 3 individual games so Sigma 1 Sigma 2 and RE. Sigma 2 is 4.33GB Sigma 1 is 4.26
incredibly small file sizes. I think the original PS3 versions were the same size.
Hopefully the day 1 updates are there and we get 4k Patches for next gen.
Sigma 1 being less than 5GB suggests the CGI is probably straight up ported from the PS3 version which was ported from the Original Xbox version at 720p
EDIT: So Razors Edge is 4.32 GB…The Xbox 360 BC version is over 5.2GB.
Bizarre. It seems TN have not put much effort into these ports in regards to making them look considerably better.
The file sizes are shockingly small. Are you sure this is the Xbox size??
Could be because of they got rid of the multiplayer modes maybe.
For me this is a plus though because you can save space with games, no need for the 360 Razor’s Edge anymore unless you really wanna play the multiplayer.
I think I’ll buy the trilogy now, I thought it was a 5% pre order discount but it’s actually 10%.
Switch version is 720p.
Base Xbox One and PS4 is 1080p.
Xbox One X, PS4 Pro, Series X/S, PS5 and PC are all 4k.
I’ve just pre-ordered the collection and pre-loading now. I’ve never digitally pre-ordered before but that discount sold me plus it’s not overly expensive like KT’s Atelier remastered trilogies.
Looking forward to playing on the 10th! Feels surreal to finally play the Sigma games after so long, now I’ll know how worse it is from Black and NG2.
And maybe this time I’ll finally be able to beat chapter 8 in NG2…idk what chapter it will be in Sigma 2.
Already gotten to chapter 8 on sigma. Might just start sigma 2 soon. Great gsmes obviously but anyone who plays this with a xbox controller change thr controls to RT and LT for block and camera. It’s default to RB and LB for some dumb reason.
