PS3: Ninja Gaiden Sigma...
The best game for the Xbox is now coming to the PS3...?!? 
But, I know...the PS3 still sucks.
Special thanks to the Stapler for informing me of the news a few days ago...
But, I know...the PS3 still sucks.
Team Ninja remakes one of the best action games ever.
September 20, 2006 - Remember all those rumours of a Ninja Gaiden sequel coming to the PlayStation 3? They've at last been proven correct... partially.
The Ninja Gaiden series will be coming to the PS3 in the form of Ninja Gaiden Sigma, the latest issue of Famitsu reveals. Developed by Team Ninja, Sigma isn't a sequel, but a "complete version" of the Xbox Team Ninja title.
Team Ninja is improving upon the Xbox version in all areas. The visuals, including characters, stages and effects, are being upgraded. Event scenes are being redone, and new scenes are being added. All cinema scenes in the PS3 version will be real time, Famitsu specifies.
On the gameplay side of things, players can look forward to new moves, actions and weapons for Hayabusa. Racheal, one of the series' heroines, will be playable, and when using her, you'll get to experience the storyline from her perspective.
Development on Ninja Gaiden Sigma is currently at just 25%. A Japanese release date has yet to be announced.

Just pick up NG Black...it can be had for cheap these days. And besides, finishing it is a rite of manhood.
And no, you can't finish it in Ninja Dog mode.

Similar game would be Devil May Cry...but, Ninja Gaiden is by far the superior of the two.

9.3 on ign. Suddenly the "flop" ps3 has way more good games than my Wii. I see all these articles "how the wii won...by being fun" uhh no, good games are fun, not a white box with 2 good games imo.

Wake up early on Sunday morning and purchase a newspaper. Whoever has it advertised will have the Wii. If it is listed at Target, go one step further and visit the Store by Store online weekly ad to narrow down what store by you has it advertised. After your research is done, go to the store 1 hour before opening.
Works like a charm and it only took me one try. Good luck.

Although, in my case, I think the hunt of it was more fun than actually getting the console...That, and I want it in black--matches the furniture better.

I played the demo and loved it. What makes you say it's the best game for the PS3 though? What else have you played?
