This was just something that came to me while at work today. Since Team Ninja threw Kasumi in NGSII for reasons unknown and some fans don't want her as a playable character in NGIII ( yes, I'm looking at you xino-san) then how about they just upload new DLC with her included.
------------
(This would be the content included)

Kasumi's Chapter: Her own "deleted scene" chapter explaining what she was doing shadowing Ayane in the Aqua Capital. The final boss could be a ninja from her clan trying to assassinate her or something (and maybe a foreshadow for Code Cronus at the end if that's still on Team Ninja's to-do list).

Kasumi: Including the "Kunoichi of Destiny" as a new playable character for Team Missions. Her main weapon is her tanto she is seen carrying and her long range weapon could be a throwing needle. As for her ninpo, she could summon a storm of sakura pedals that surround her enemies and slash them like razors in a hurricane like winds.

New Team Mission Chapters: Five new missions for Mentor, Master Ninja, and Ultimate Ninja (this would be a great help for people struggling to get Momiji's last costume).

New Costumes: Kinda obivious, don't you think. Each character a new costume and Kasumi will come with a total of six included just to keep up with the others.

what do you mean Momiji's last costume?

one is achieved by beating Mentor mode.
and the other is achieved by getting Master Ninja on 30 Chapter Challenges.

but more missions would be good, since there's still space for more. (only this time, make them more reasonable, some of them are just ridiculous and boring to complete)

we're still sticking with the Tanto? I don't like that weapon, it can't be used to kill 4 ninjas in hand-to-hand combat. Tantos were ment for sneak attacks.
The needle is a nice idea, if thrown regularly, it should only deal as much damage as Ryu's shurikens, but if aimed and thrown, it will deal much more damage (assuming the needle hits the enemy in their pressure points or major blood lines) As long as no limbs fall off when the needle is thrown.

Six costumes? Momiji and Ayane only have four costumes each including the Add-on costumes.

Oh sweet, now we have a quick reply. (You see, some people are watching our posts in their basement with all lights turned off:P)

Yes, I dislike having Kasumi for NG 3, or other DOA Characters invading Ryu's game. (I even need to change my own dream NG story:/)

But it's FINE, if they make a DLC based on Kasumi. Once again, it'll make Sigma 2 having it as a unique collection.

Once again Versus, I know you'll hate this but here it goes:

Her own "deleted scene" chapter explaining what she was doing shadowing Ayane in the Aqua Capital. The final boss could be a ninja from her clan trying to assassinate her or something (and maybe a foreshadow for Code Cronus at the end if that's still on Team Ninja's to-do list).
This will not work (some people reading this are laughing, while you are p*ssed off)
You wanna know why? because Kasumi has nothing to do with NG2, it would be a whole new story for her. Why would she be investigating on Ayane's duties? (all these will take more than 1 chapter to explain) As for Mugen Tenshin ninjas trying to assassinate her, that only happens in between DOA1 (or after DOA1). She was meant to become the new leader in place of Hayate but left in order for revenge, thus giving her the title Run away Shinobi.


Also what's with the bomb/ninpo thing for her DOA3 Ending? That thing she knew looks like a bomb like ninpo.

haha, no, I have a life, it's just that I clicked subscribe to this site, and it tells me everytime there's a new post on here.

no I'm talking about the guest here. and I was joking about.

I'm just glad that there's a new feature to the site, it shows that someone stills monitor this board.

(some people reading this are laughing, while you are p*ssed off)

If that's the reaction I've been getting from you two this whole then go f*** yourselves. I logged on to this website hoping team ninja would take my suggestions; not to become a laughing stock for two jackasses who think a good upgrade for Ninja Gaiden is moaning ninjas.

because Kasumi has nothing to do with NG2, it would be a whole new story for her.

Then why have her included at all if she had no purpose being there in the first place?! If you claim to know everything then explain that to me; what was Team Ninja's intent of having a Kasumi cameo in NGS2? It must of meant something if they went out of their way to put her in the damn game!

storm of sakura pedals,i think that might actually work, as long as they don’t add another fire element ninpo ill be good
i think you could pull off both Ayane and Kasumi having flash kunai,
i don’t even know what’s going on with these upcoming DLC, someone did say that they where dropping plans for DLC because NGS2 didn’t sell well but that’s not confirmed, but in the PSM3 magazine there was an article that said Team NINJA where doing 2 DLC costume packs, one of which is already out then other we should expect for early 2010

here’s the scan, i took it from the PSM3 magazine Issue 121, there’s no actual date on it just says “Xmas 2009”


O and take no notice of these guys, im a regular of the official NGS2 thread atgame trailers.com which is at it’s 9th version, i try and post a poll with every new thread, the current one is “what do you want to see as DLC?”
Heres an image off it



as you can see Single “Player Missions” and people have mentioned that they what to see single player missions for Kasumi, and with the “Playable Characters” options thats referring to co-op and even in there people have asked to see Kasumi, so yeah your on the right line

here’s a direct link to the gametrailers NGS2 thread, i think i’v done a good job with he opening post

LOL!
Team NINJA can speak English!? Tecmo are the ones to pass fans messages to Team NINJA in Japanese. Tecmo are the ones reading these boards not Team NINJA.
You know that was actually an insult for saying the best idea we could come up with is moaning ninjas (not the f*** yourselves)

Ok you want me to be honest about you?
Well your ideas are not original. If you want to come up with something new, all you do is get inspired by something, change the name and theme and call it your new idea.

Seriously your dream game about NG3. It's basically NG2 with a new story, seriously another 4 greater fiends again:/
Then you have an idea for OT, gotten from Genshin, come on man. You don't come up with anything new.

And before you critic about my ideas, I think you should browse around some topics and see the idea's I've come up with unlike your unoriginal ideas. Even though your ideas are not original the bad part is they don't work with the game. Right Analogue to dodge, when you seem to be forgetting that this game has a high problem with controlling camera and the bonding of heavy justice with weapons.

It was meant as a fan service! There isn't meant to be a purpose for her appearing, just a cameo, cameo means nothing.

"Let me know what you all think" says Hayashi, if people did like it, then who knows Hayashi will include her in NG3 or DLC who knows.

Well your ideas are not original. If you want to come up with something new, all you do is get inspired by something, change the name and theme and call it your new idea.

That's how people come up with new ideas. Nobody just thinks of something from out of the blue, something has to inspire them to think of something new!! Hell, Itagaki said he didn't just come up with DOA by himself, but got his idea from both Mortal Kombat and Virtual Fighter. What we both did was took inspiration and started thinking!!

Seriously your dream game about NG3. It's basically NG2 with a new story, seriously another 4 greater fiends again:/

If you remembered correctly, I said the next greater fiends should be based on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse! And key word there: based, as in "not the actual four horsemen." Team Ninja knows just having four bosses makes a game too short, so would add other greater fiends to fill in the gaps.

And how is my story the same? NG2: Ryu must stop an ultimate evil from being resurrected. My Story: Ryu and a group of elite ninja must destroy an alliance of a international military corportation, fiends, and evil ninja before they create the ultimate bio-weapon with the power of a god.

And before you critic about my ideas, I think you should browse around some topics and see the idea's I've come up with unlike your unoriginal ideas.

I have, and guess what I found:

Or with the Dabliharo, Ryu slams the sword, waves of energy rushes out, rapid pressing Heavy Attack. And Ryu will keep slamming Dabilahro on the ground with lvl 1 energy wave instead. it's like Dante's Inferno, when Dante's slams the Scythe on the floor multiple times.

Bayonetta Style Gameplay.
Revamping the whole gameplay and allowing it to play like Bayonetta. Meaning you can mix up moves any how, like say I can mix up Izuna Drop following with a Flying Swallow. No stop, all in continuous motion.

Like Dante Must Die Mode in DMC 4, how if you don't kill enemies within 30sec, they'll go into devil mode. (also I've been watching too much Guyver)

There's a word for a person who do what you just did; it's called being a hypocrite.

"Let me know what you all think" says Hayashi, if people did like it, then who knows Hayashi will include her in NG3 or DLC who knows.

Even before then Hayashi-san was thinking of adding Kasumi in Ninja Gaiden, he just wanted to know if that's what the fans want. (Hey, wow, I just answered that for myself)

Overall, I have come up with my own original ideas. Just because I got the idea from an inspiration doesn't make it unoriginal, it just means that I think it would make Ninja Gaiden even better.

@Mohsin: Thanks for the info, I was hoping to hear a second DLC pack would be coming soon. And I do hope Kasumi becomes a playable character. Maybe they should have Cristina Valenzuela play her voice too.

@Toshiro: It's the only weapon I know she uses. But if you have a better weapon idea for her to use then what do you think she should use? I'm not angery at you, I'm just asking.

There's a word for a person who do what you just did; it's called being a hypocrite.
Word of advice to people, never argue with someone inferior to you:/

You took 3/4 out of my 10 posted ideas and used it as your backup!?
Isn't that what Eurogamer did for their NGS2 vs NG2 comparison article!? They took all the bad parts of NGS2 and compared it to all the good parts of NG2.

This is exactly the same thing you are doing, and I said you should browse other topics not just my ideas in Revamping NGS2.
Because you should know that I've done enough to support this board.


And I know what being a hypocrite means. If you really want to call me that, then I SUGGEST you use all of my ideas I came up with and use it as your back up. If not, just GTFO!



That's how people come up with new ideas. Nobody just thinks of something from out of the blue, something has to inspire them to think of something new!!
Hmmm, how come Uncharted 2 is so good!? They used every gameplay mechanic you've experienced before in other games and used it in their own game. Yet it makes Uncharted 2 unique.

The ideas i came up with (in which you tried to twist my words and you failed) can works with NG. Unless you have a feeling they might not. As for your idea, you make something that doesn't even have a flow, or work well with NG, more also not understanding what you are talking about.

Tomoe character, a kuniochi ninja who was kicked out of the Black Spider Clan for trying to kill the leader. WTF are you talking about!? You show lack of understanding the Black Spider Clan.

It would be interesting to see this used as a puzzle tool, and to make it more interesting why not add some aerial combat as well?!lol...wtf are you talking about. In the end you still haven't answered my question how the gliding can be used in combat. Mesmerise me please!

Anyway man, I'm not even gonna spend time arguing with you. Because this is arguing, and you are building it up in your topic.

you two stop arguing, it's not leading anywhere.

but I'm on Xino's side on this one.

see, Versus's ideas are based on other games, while Xino comes up with ideas and compares them to other games, basically, Xino uses other games as examples.

so keep coming up with ideas, and stop getting mad when others don't think it's good. Have some competition when coming up with ideas, it's good for you, but don't be too harsh when talking about other person's ideas. Accept that someone doesn't like your idea and move on, think of something better. Name-calling is meaningless.

now, if someone criticizes your ideas and doesn't come up with ideas of their own, then that's a different story. =)

Word of advice to people, never argue with someone inferior to you:

Word of advice to people: stay away from those with a big ego.

You mean the moaning ninjas? Or the Shadow Ryu thing that's been done in Demon Souls (which you yourself said you got from Spilter Cell)? Or maybe the part where you thought the best way to fix the OT system would be that it should only be used on enemies who are as good as dead anyway?

This is exactly the same thing you are doing, and I said you should browse other topics not just my ideas in Revamping NGS2.
Because you should know that I've done enough to support this board.

I looked, despite my better judgement, and so far your "ideas" only force Ninja Gaiden to take steps backwards. For example; Ryu being the only character just gives us a narrow view of the story, but with more playble characters we get to see a much bigger picture. How can the story become more deep if everything happens off screen where we can't see it? In NG2, Ayane just suddenly shows up with a powerful item that helps Ryu become stronger, there was no explaination how she got it or where it was the whole time because we were stuck in Ryu's POV, but in NGS2 we got to see how Ayane gets the Dragon's eye because she became playable! Does this mean Ayane deserves as much air time as Ryu? No. It means for the game to have more depth to it we need another narrative to help explain the details more without breaking away from the main path.

And I know what being a hypocrite means. If you really want to call me that, then I SUGGEST you use all of my ideas I came up with and use it as your back up. If not, just GTFO!

I'm calling you a hypocrite because you said I don't come up with anything new, just that I find something that works in a game and try to add it in Ninja Gaiden, and while you have done the same, exact, thing!!!

Look back in my first post; you clearly show that you didn't think those ideas yourself, you got them from other games and added your own spin to them like I've been doing!! You're the one twisting words, not me!

The ideas i came up with (in which you tried to twist my words and you failed) can works with NG. Unless you have a feeling they might not. As for your idea, you make something that doesn't even have a flow, or work well with NG, more also not understanding what you are talking about.

Like I said before, all the ideas you seem to come up with just send Ninja Gaiden backwards instead of forward. I'll admit; you have some good points, but you ultimately seem to have this huge fear of the changes made and instead want them removed! I openly admit the analog stick dodge was stupid, but everything else holds up because I updated them based on suggestions, ironically, from you!

Tomoe character, a kuniochi ninja who was kicked out of the Black Spider Clan for trying to kill the leader. WTF are you talking about!? You show lack of understanding the Black Spider Clan.

You obviously haven't been paying attention: she tried to assassinate the new leader because she thought she was better suited for the job but failed and had to leave the clan before they could kill her. If the Black Spider are as organised as you say they are they aren't going to let her go after trying to kill the leader, so they will try to eliminate her before she can try again and Tomoe isn't going to stay with the clan if they're trying to kill her!

You ignored my update in my dream game topic and used my Wishlist topic to twist the facts to your favor.

In the end you still haven't answered my question how the gliding can be used in combat. Mesmerise me please!

Alright then. Picture this would you: Ryu is fighting in Neo Tokyo, there are several flying fiends soaring around the skyscrapers, blastsing the structures with fireballs because Ryu is fighting the BSC inside. Once the ninja are dead, Ryu moves on to shoot down the fiends but more just show up to replace them. Ryu knows he can't shoot them all down, and he needs to escape the building some how. So shoots one fiend to disable it, leaps from the building, and glides towards the disabled fiend. Ryu grabs the fiend and finishes it off with a heavy attack using a dagger like weapon (like a kunai or tanto) before jumping off the now dead fiend. The other fiends attack in swarms; Ryu shoots the next fiend closes to him, glides over, and grabs the fiend in mid-air. Using the dagger weapon again, Ryu instead uses light attacks to force the fiend to fly higher to avoid splattering on the ground. After getting higher, Ryu uses a heavy attack and glides to his next prey. Once all the fiends are finished, Ryu glides back to another building, crashes through a window, and begins fighting the BSC ninja again.

Not every level will have battles like this and before you say "why not just shoot them down instead" that's because the next Ninja Gaiden should have limited arrows instead of unlimited, meaning you can't shoot them all down.

Mesmerised?

Hmmmmmmmmm this is a board with free flow of ideas.No single poster has a monopoly on "great" or stinky concepts. Maybe we should lay off the name calling.

well why not just give players all upgrades weapon's health regenerate i mean the on the xbox 360 is really really hard i can't even beat the mission modes i just don't know how im or others r suppost to get through it i already
played NGS II but not beaten it im try to finish up xbox360 verison but there just no way i can do the mission mode so why not just adds health regenerate on the DLC all i got were costums & they weren't much help at all

I subscribe to this topic, whether she gets her own mission or not matters little to me. I would absolutely love to just be able to play the game with her.

Necroing old thread,

Ok, Xino stop with the rudeness. its getting old.

As for the idea of putting Kasumi as DLC, your ideas are great, her ninpo everything, very nice IMHO, and well thought out i might add.

The idea of her following Ayane and Ryu has everything to do with the games. SO feasibly it could work, i personally might put her in teh mountain level from the end, as apposed to the water capitol. like she found ryu and was meeting him there before he defeated the greater fiend. Black spider ninjas had to still be tehre after Ryu made it into the volcano.

for your information and others who do read this.

I was wrong about this, saying a Kasumi in NG would not work. I was naive and single minded back then (so I take back my words), now opening my minds I see there is a reason why Kasumi should be added and not just for the reason but she has too be added for the sake of Ninja Gaiden title.


and for your safety, stop hugging your damn pc so much, find something else to do low life fanboy.

Hypocrisy is the act of pretending to have beliefs, opinions, virtues, feelings, qualities, or standards that one does not actually have. Hypocrisy involves the deception of others and is thus a kind of lie.
Hypocrisy is not simply failing to practice those virtues that one preaches. Samuel Johnson made this point when he wrote about the misuse of the charge of "hypocrisy" in Rambler No. 14:
Nothing is more unjust, however common, than to charge with hypocrisy him that expresses zeal for those virtues which he neglects to practice; since he may be sincerely convinced of the advantages of conquering his passions, without having yet obtained the victory, as a man may be confident of the advantages of a voyage, or a journey, without having courage or industry to undertake it, and may honestly recommend to others, those attempts which he neglects himself.[1]
Thus, an alcoholic's advocating temperance, for example, would not be considered an act of hypocrisy so long as the alcoholic made no pretense of constant sobriety.....from Wiki

Enough breast beating and name calling please!
