Yeah, yeah, Ninja Gaiden 4 looks pretty cool I guess. But, announced alongside Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, why get too excited about a new game I know little about, when I can get excited about yet another playthrough of a game I know I love?

This might shock modern gamers, used to cross-platform releases as the standard, but even back in the Xbox 360 and PS3 era there weren't only vast differences in things like release dates – but ports could vary wildly between the two dominant HD platforms. Few games exemplify this quite so drastically as Xbox 360's Ninja Gaiden 2 and the PS3's Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2.
