Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
Find out why everybody is nodding their heads by watching this promo vid for Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2.
Very much looking forward to the game even though I didn't get round to completing Sigma 1 on the PS3. Did finish it on the NDS though but was disappointed that we couldn't use Kurenai - I think thats what her name was. In Sigma 2 we also get to choose from one of three ladies. My fave is the girl with long hair Momiji.

OMG. Seriously?! I thought it was gonna be some epic gaming thing, but its just gently bouncing eyes?? Boooooo!
And I csn bet they'll change the ad campaign the UK...
I did lol when I saw what they were looking at though.

You mean bouncing eyes aren't epic?!
The sixaxis controller finally has a purpose in life. I wouldn't be surprised if there are high counts of whiplash reported and Ninja Gaiden is blamed. Guess gamers can use that as an excuse to be treated by the "cute" (if there are any) nurses at the hospital.

There are 3 girls? 3 pairs of eyes! 8 hour of bouncing for each character a day!
Waiting for more nodding videos to be posted on youtube and niconico.

a masterful way of imprinting the advertisement on otakus heads XD
Student

Haha the first video was golden I haven't played Ninja Gaiden Sigma 1 on the PS3, but I heard it was good. Do you have to play through the first game to understand the storyline of the second? If not I might get the game after I finish Uni =D.

That is just so bloody funny... now that's what I call effective advertising. :P

The first video is hilarious whilst the second looks epic. Might look into getting this game although I've never played the Ninja Gaiden series before.

Tecmo is promoting the Sigma 2 very heavily!
http://xcomprandomness.co.uk/
I thought they were just mesmerised by the fighting action in the game but, then I remembered reading about this on Kotaku and guessed what was coming, lol...
Student
LOL! I had a feeling they were nodding their heads to bouncy boobies... no really, although that assumption may be due to my (mildly) dirty mind :P

Juggling oppai controlled by the six axis? I'm sold. Hope Sigma 2 keeps a Japanese voice track option. Though the English doesn't sound that bad.

Too bad Kojima already did the sixaxis eye bouncing with MGS4, although it was just for a cutscene. Here you can do it the entire game! I think my wrists would get very tired from playing from the constant shaking of the controller.
student
hahaha ! love this commercial soo much !!! Already preorded mine ^_^ cant wait !
Student, Uncle & hopfully a good husband..
Everyone nods to it...Wait...i though i used her on the NDS game to complete the game before...after finishing it once...

I really love that first video, haha! :P

You know, I thought Tecmo was already a bit heavy with fanservice with the Volleyball games for Dead or Alive.
This really takes the cake. I guess it's part of their marketing strategy?
Never the less I'm looking forward to the game, I have high expectations :D

The old guy with his wine. =O
I find it funny how an entire ad can be focused all on an aesthetic part of the game. Its not even gameplay!

I feel kind of sad that Ninja Gaiden has to resort to this. The first one was totally awesome even if it was kind of hard to beat. It's a sad state of affairs if the second is anything like the first but has to resort to bouncing parts as a selling point.

I knew about this before, but still. I played the first one for Xbox, I think this one is worth picking up. I'll get it when I get a PS3 for FF XIII.
lol Wish theyd have commercials like that over here. Definitely waiting for this game ! Hope the 29th of sept. is a solid release date :]
