What it do, party peoples? This is my first FAQ of 2009 and it is forNinja Gaiden Sigma 2. I'm sure all of you know that Sigma 2 is just aPS3 version of Ninja Gaiden 2 from the 360, but does it really matter?

While the gameplay is essentially the same, a few changes were made tomake the game less frustrating but still difficult at the same time.

The walkthrough below will chronicle all of Story Mode. In laterupdates, I will have HD video links and the full Trophy list, so in themeantime...

GET IT ON!!!

--THE CHIBURIAfter Ryu kills all the baddies in any area, he will perform the Chiburimove where he swats away the blood from his weapon. When he does this,his health will also regenerate. The Chiburi signifies that an area issafe and that the battle is complete for that particular area.

--HEALTH RESTOREWhen Ryu loses health in battle, his health bar will have a red meterthat will increase as his health decreases. After Ryu performs theChiburi, his health will quickly restore itself up to the point of thered meter. To fully restore health, Ryu must approach a SAVE STATUE torefill the health bar (done only once per statue).

--THE OBLITERATION TECHNIQUERyu MUST kill every single enemy that he encounters or else they willpursue him. To avoid all this nonsense, approach an enemy that has beensliced apart and press the /\ BUTTON near them to finish them off.

--INFINITE PROJECTILESAll projectiles in the game are INFINITE! That's right, no more need torestock. But there is a certain catch! Ryu CANNOT use chargedprojectiles like in the Xbox 360 version!

--THE WATER RUNRyu can run on water (hey, he's a Master Ninja, bitch) by tapping the XBUTTON as soon as his feet touch the surface of the water. If he fallsinto the water, simply tap the X BUTTON to get back up.

--MANUAL SAVEIn order to make a Manual Save, Save your game at the Save Statue first,and then press the SELECT BUTTON to bring up the OPTIONS menu and chooseQUIT GAME. From there, you can make a Manual Save at the closest SaveStatue and restart from that point at any time.

the Dragon Sword. Once the Fang is upgraded to level 3, all enemies arenothing but mincemeat to the slaughter.

++HOWLING CANNON NOTE:The recoil of firing the Cannon takes a second for Ryu to recover. Afterhe fires a cannonball, evading an enemy attack will be a bit tricky, so

time your blasts carefully!

For Sigma 2, the Karma system still implements the same scoring systemthat was used in NGII. Combos, Obliterations, Ultimate Techniques, etc.count towards the Karma score. All you gotta do is NOT DIE.

The points add up like this:

--COMBOS = 100 POINTS PER HIT--ESSENCE TECHNIQUE = 2000 POINTS--ULTIMATE TECHNIQUE = 5000 POINTS--OBLITERATIONS = 3000 POINTS--KILLING SPREE = 3000 POINTS--INSTANT KILLS = 6000 POINTS--ENEMIES KILLED = 1000 POINTS PER ENEMY

++KARMA NOTE:On Story Mode, there is NO Karma System or Rankings! Both are onlyimplemented in TEAM MISSIONS and CHAPTER CHALLENGE!

For Rankings, there are FIVE Ranks to achieve: NINJA DOG, ACOLYTE,MENTOR, ADEPT, and MASTER NINJA. This only applies to CHAPTER CHALLENGE.

On TEAM MISSIONS, you are awarded Medals (Bronze, Silver, Gold) insteadof Rankings.

Throughout the game, you will encounter Muramasa Statues littered invarious places. There are two kinds of statues: a glowing Gold statueand a glowing Blue statue.


15/107

The Gold Statue only allows Ryu to purchase Health items. The BlueStatue enables the purchase of Health items AND Weapon upgrades.

--HEALTH ITEMS PRICES (WARRIOR MODE)

HERBS OF SPIRITUAL LIFE $3000GRAINS OF SPIRITUAL LIFE $5000DEVIL WAY MUSHROOM $4000TALISMAN OF REBIRTH $30,000

--HEALTH ENHANCEMENT NOTEMuramasa no longer sells Health Enhancements items! Unlike previousNinja Gaiden games, ALL the enhancements are only found in treasurechests throughout the game.

--WEAPON UPGRADES (BLUE MURAMASA STATUES ONLY)All upgrades for Ryu's weapons are 100% FREE OF COST! The only catch is

that Ryu can only upgrade ONE weapon at a time per statue. Once youreach Chapter 10, Muramasa will offer level 3 upgrades (but still onlyfor ONE weapon at a time).

++CRYSTAL SKULLS NOTE:For every ten Crystal Skulls found, Muramasa will discount the prices ofhis items. Not that it matters, but it's not as if you need thediscount, do you?
