Tecmo and Microsoft worked together in the creation of Ninja Gaiden II. Released in the states on June 3, 2008, Team Ninja (developers) are dropping it in the land down under tomorrow. The Xbox 360 gamespotreviews agree that this is a great game as expected after looking at the Ninja Gaiden flagship.

If you are worried about this game living up to its older brother, don’t worry. The second one is said to be extremely similar. All of the stealth is there with a whole lot of action. Ryu faces the evil of the Black Spider Ninja Clan and friends and moves through 14 stages mincing them to bits.  Ryu and helpers are in search of the resurrection of Archfiend, it will be up to the gamers to make that happen.

From the gamespot forum screenshots the action looks bloody and intense. The framerate makes a running front flip into sword slash look really good. For those that appreciate action games this one is for you. The add-ons will make game play new. The same complaints will be heard about the camera angles but this gamespot forum is giving Ninja Gaiden II two thumbs up.
