A few days before the Tokyo Games Show, Tecmo and Microsoft unveil the very bloody first images of Ninja Gaiden 2, for the moment still a Xbox 360 exclusive. Graphically, Sigma has nothing to be ashamed of for now.

Nija Gaiden Sigma really sucked for ps3

Interesting, considering it's the second highest ranked PS3 game on metacritic

And was equally loved as NG Black on the xbox.

Hmm, same people that give an awesome game like the darkness a 7.7

Different strokes for different folks

Yeah, the true sequel FTW!

NG was extremely tough on the Xbox and the Black edition added more to it in terms of difficulty. But heck, it was an enjoyable game!

1Up's got a bit of a Preview:

And unfortunately for the Sigma fans there's a touch of bad news:

As Microsoft is set to announce at a pre-Tokyo Game Show press event shortly, Ninja Gaiden 2 is real, heading to Xbox 360, and -- in an unusual twist -- being published by Microsoft itself, rather than Tecmo. While still under development by Tecmo's Team Ninja, the publisher shift puts it next to games like Halo 3 and Mass Effect as part of Microsoft's first-party lineup.
