Looks pretty cool. Weren't they saying before how it was going to be cool to have all the limbs and bodies stay on the ground while you keep fighting? A disappointing number of enemies still evaporate.

Too Human vs Ninja Gaiden vs Devil May Cry 4

Too Human has a potentially interesting upgrade system, but right now out of the three it looks the least interesting to me. Ninja Gaiden looks just insane and graphically just as good, if not better then DMC4.

Im gunna say NG over DMC over TH.

But I dont like Denis Dyack so that doesnt help TH either.

You can't really improve upon perfection.

Unfortunately Ninja Gaiden, NG Black, and NG Sigma were not quite perfection. But they were great.

There better not be any motherfucking Ghost Fish in this one, and I'll love this game.

Is it just me or does it seem like the general sense of speed has increased a lot in Ryu's attacks oand movements since the first NG on Xbox?

Maybe it's just the camera or something, but when Ryu gets going and does some of the more advanced combos and attacks it seems to be so fast sometimes my eyes can barely tell what he is doing. Not sure if I like that or not yet.

Definitely buying the game day 1 though. NG for Xbox is still my favorite game to date.
