"Sigma it up!!!"

Once upon a time in the year 2004 a great ninja game was created called Ninja gaiden for the Xbox. 1 year later the "same" game (just with a bit more extras) came out again for the xbox called Ninja gaiden black. NOW in 2007 the same game came out for the Playstation 3 called Ninja Gaiden Sigma but with more levels and heck load of better graphics. It took them 3 years to perfect this game but it was worth it.

If you spent the 600 bucks for the PS3 good for you because its finally worth it.

Story (9/10)
Lets start with the story. The story is pretty neat since it is a modern age ninja story since most ninja storys are in ancient Japan or china. The whole game is about this ninja named Ryu (which is played by you) must stop and evil force that stole a sacred black dragon sword that Ryu family has protected for years. It isnt that very in depth but it is a lot of fun watching the story unravel.

Graphics (10/10)
There is not much to say about the graphics all you have to know is that ITS SO DARN BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!! Trust me when you see a guy getting decapitated in high def it will bring a tear to your eye (sniff)

Gameplay (10/10) (pffff) its more like 100/10
This is where Sigma reaches its peak. The action in this game is absolutely astonishing. You start off with your dragon blade which has tons of combos you can do then later you will be able to unlock its hidden powers and have more combos and better yet you have tons of other weapons to choose from. You can choose from a spear, nunchucks, flails, Big swords, wooden swords, even a freaken paddle!
The cool upgrade that Ninja gaiden sigma has is that you can be Rachel a sub main character in the game and she has a totally different way of fighting. Its totally great.

Sound/music (10/10)
Trust me the only thing better than killing people is to kill people with hard rock music. At the beginning its olden japanese music but then changes to hard rock. ROCK On

Overall
If you have a PS3 you should already have this game now.....but if you dont buy it buy it RIGHT NOW.
You wont be sorry.
