amazing isn't it?
They are costumes

i love how you can customize Rachel's hair, and you can also customize Ryu's headgear protector.

Rachel now has 2 new costumes. I'm loving the red dress.

I love NG3's Dark Hero costume in NGS+.

I too want to know whats on his ankle. Looks like a new armlet. I hope it isn't for Ninja Trials.

sadly no new weapons so far.


this is the best up to date NG and the one to have.

UPDATE:

Oh yea and it just ticked me as I didn't realise it!
Ryu can also duel with Doku just like he does with Murai and Genshi.
I'm talking about when the 2 cross together with their swords.

It still looks like he has the armlet on his wrist in one of those shots. Could it be the Ninja Dog Marker on his ankle? Similar to those bands (which were really just the armulets for free) Rachels hairs the same in all those.
I am a sucker for costume choices. (As you may know, its always my top complaint)
And, I loved those duel moments. Is Ninja Trials just the new name for Mission Mode? It says this will have the most mission out of any NG game.

it looks like you can equip 2 at the same time. And I doubt it is the Hero mode/Ninja dog thing. Because you can see during the first few screenshots, there is an orb on top of the screen that indicates Hero Mode functions but Ryu not having that thing on his ankle.

I love the new Falcon headgear, pretty sick.

Ninja Trials are different from Mission mode. Ninja Trials are more like task to do in a mission. Like defeat Virgoor soldiers only with the Wooden Sword.

I still wonder if the DLC from Sigma would be included in this game. I think those are more like the Trials since I downloaded the Weapon pack that tasks you to defeat 100 enemies with 1 weapon.

It looks like that headgear just sets on top of his already, maybe these will be like Rachels hairstyles...
I loved those DLC packs for sigma 1. And, I loved how when you fought a doppleganger ryu in those, he had a blue/black dragon skin suit (compared to the red/black one the player gets to have) IDK if ryu had these but on Rachel Master.
I love seeing the Unlabored flawlessness!

new pictures!

IS THIS BULLSHOT!???
details on Ryu looks incredible!

quote:

The most significant addition to NGS+ is the new Ninja Challenge mode, a series of snack-sized trials can be completed in just a couple of minutes – geared toward gamers on the go. Each of these 76 missions provides a straightforward goal, such as clearing a certain amount of enemies, taking on a boss character, or engaging in a weapon-specific objective. This is also where you can use use alternate character Rachel, and try out new costumes and weapons that you might not have earned yet in the story mode.

Hmm I don't know man.
The Ninja Trials might really be Mission Mode with the Sigma 3 Pack DLCs. But I hope this isn't the case:/

quote:

Ninja Gaiden Sigma arrived on PS3 before the advent of PSN Trophies, so NGS+ is the first to incorporate the addictive baubles. I took a look at the Trophy list, and most of the rewards involve killing lots of dudes with each weapon, or by mastering techniques such as the powerful Izuna drop.

Trophies confirmed



if you do plan on getting VITA.
I would suggest you THINK TWICE before buying Sigma game.
Wait for the Digital version, digital version cost less than retail.
But its up to you if you want to sell Sigma+ or have the boxart along with your NG collections.

Team Ninja have been known to push alot of bullshots so, prolly. But, it does look nice in the trailer.

Also International trailer


Not as cool as the Japanese though the syncing is on par with the track.


When this game gets released, I would stop updating this topic. I would only update once more just to post the sales number for the game.

Famitsu


2Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus (PSV) – 8/8/8/8"


Here's the score for NGS by Famitsu
http://www.insertcoin-pt.net/index.php?showtopic=8724

"Ninja Gaiden Sigma (PS3, Tecmo): 9 / 8 / 8 / 8 - (33/40)"



also here is something I found out while looking for Famitsu NGS score

I don't remember a mission where we had to fight 2 dynamo. It must have got taken off.

GaintBomb plays through NGS+

*be-heading is back, it was originally removed in EU and Japanese version, blamed Eidos for that.
*new animation for absorbing orbs
*you still cannot quit the game when in-game, I guess the original NGB had a locked out feature where you cannot quit the game:/
*Ninja Trials ARE mission modes! Though with added missions, i believe the DLCs from Sigma should be included.
*i don't really like the Vita ninpo design, it would be good if you see the icon on screen and you interact with it in real time. Sort of like how you charge the ps3 controller for max damage.
*shame you can't use Rachel in Ryu's missions



UPDATE:

New screenshots added
