Ninja Gaiden 2 is a great game, but it's aged and is not as good as Black. You will enjoy solid animation and game mechanics plus an astounding soundtrack.

Still 10 times better than Razor's Edge.
It's the best Ninja Gaiden game aside from Black. Well worth the price.

keep in mind while playing that, that all of that shit going down is happening in the DOA universe. its really interesting to think that the non-ninjas also had to deal with that. i wonder if bayman killed any fiends?

Yea, I've heard 2 has some issues but that it's still a great game. Looking forward to starting it.
Do I need to know any story from previous Ninja Gaidens to understand Ninja Gaiden 2?

@Russian-chiropractic19: I don't know but I would love the shit out of an action game that lets me break fiends' bones as Bayman.
That is interesting though, I thought the two universes were separate? TBH I didn't understand how Ryu had his own universe, but was also involved in DoA's.

Story time!
Yes, the universes for DOA and the rebooted NG are one and the same. Ryu's clan is dedicated to protecting the world from evil threats (namely the fiends), which is what is the focus of the NG series.

But Hayabusa's ninja clan is also allied with the Mugen Tenshin clan (whose members are personal friends of Ryu's, including Hayate, Kasumi and Ayane). So, when DOATEC or Bankotsubo threatens the world with evil or threatens Hayabusa's friends, he intervenes.
