Tecmo's releasing a new "Ninja Gaiden Black" for the xbox.

Contains the Ninja Gaiden which was out for the xbox before, as well as both hurricane packs, as well as some new levels, new cut scenes, new weapons and enemies I believe as well.

Here is an AWESOME trailer for it. If you havn't played the original Ninja Gaiden, I think this video clip will realllllllly entise you. Its about a 40MB download but its well worth it:

Just click the "download" button off of gamespot's website....I believe you need to be signed into your gamespot account though. (its free).

Awesome video. Check it out.

Well actually it could still be true because Ninja Gaiden 2 the sequel has not be confirmed for Xbox 360 or the PS3 yet. This Ninja Gaiden Black is not really a sequel to the first game, this is just and upgraded version and it's going to be on Xbox 1 so its' not the same as th sequel that will be coming out for the next-gen console.

Considering that Tecmo have already confirmed two games for the Xbox 360, I think the chances of a Ninja Gaiden heading to PS3 is pretty slim.

Doesn't Microsoft own Tecmo? I thought that was why they only develop for the Xbox now.

I really loved the Ninja Gaiden on the NES and I was looking forward to it porting to the PS2 but then Microsoft had to come along... now we don't even get that... and then I heard that when you finish the Xbox version, it lets you play the NES versions... that REALLY made me ALMOST go out to buy an xbox.

Remakes (sorry, not even a remake, just an addition) of the same game are lame. Plus that guy that heads DOA is a jerk. He badmouths every other fighting game out there even though DOA is based on sex appeal.

Yup its true

you have to collect 50 "scarabs" placed throughout all the levels. and if u find them all at the end of the game u can play Ninja Gaiden I (NES Version)

and EVEN BETTER, you can unlock Ninja Gaiden II and Ninja Gaiden III (both NES versions)

Its basically a 4 in 1 game.......the ninja gaiden black will be basically like 5/6 games in one.....(because of the hurricane packs)

what did u guys think of the video clip? did anyone bother downloading it? it was pretty cool

He only bad mouths mainly Tekken.
He gives quite a lot of props to Yu Suzuki and VF2 actually. He says w/o VF2, there won't have been a DOA series at all.

Except graphically. Until SC is built for Xbox 1 first that is. Making the PS2 your first game and just porting the content over to the others makes it look like crap.
