I haven' t beaten Ninja Gaiden on the original Xbox. I Play a lot of games, and try to complete them at least once. Tell that the the bosses on the xbox game , they would probably laugh until they exploded. In Ninja Gaiden II, play on Path of the Acolyte mode first. I was able to endure everything the game threw at me to make it to the last chapter. 
 

NG2 Basically fixes all the problems that were in the Original Xbox version. Better Camera, more times to purchase healing items, More save points and saving before major Boss battles, and easier difficulty  for casual players. Those who are experts in the Ninja Arts can also upload thier gameplay on The games Ninja Cinema feature, to help out, or show off their skills, to other players. Many of the weapons in Ninja Gaiden, and the PS3 Ninja Gaiden Sigma return in NG2, along with a few new and deadly additions. These weapons all vary and can be switched on the fly when say that stupid flying thingy wont come near your sword, you can switch to something else better suited for that particular battle.  
Overall, Ninja Gaiden 2 is more intense, limb chopping action, and hopefully less controller breaking in anger due to the games bosses. Yes Alma from Ninja Gaiden, you would NOT want to take me on in this awesome sequel.
