In a recent interview with GameTrailers.com (http://www.gametrailers.com/gamepage.php?id=3281) Team Ninja’s Tomonobu Itagaki admitted that the Xbox 360 will be Team Ninja’s main development platform and that nothing is going to change that. After the announcement (http://www.playstatic.com/news/4) of Ninja Gaiden Sigma, the PS3 version of Ninja Gaiden, people feared that the next iteration of the Ninja Gaiden series might be a PS3 title. Itagaki said that that won’t be happening.
In the interview Itagaki also says that he’s very happy with the 360 hardware and that development on Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 is wrapping up. The game is nearly done and he says that Team Ninja didn’t have to cut any features to get it released on time. When GameTrailers.com asked him what he was going to do next he answered that his next game is going to be “what everyone’s expecting”. Jeez Tomonobu, what game would that be?

Makes you wonder if we might see Sigma on 360. I know it's supposedly just a graphical update of the first Ninja Gaiden but there is quite a buzz on it after TGS.

So, the game that everyone expects is NG2? What about Code Chronus and all that jazz?

Let them keep Sigma, I'd rather get Ninja Gaiden 2.

it might be Ninja Gaiden Sigma.
Its for 360, so it can't be Sigma. Don't you remember the ad in Famitsu that had the box cover for future Team Ninja 360 games? Project Progressive was one of them.

Of course it's not sigma or any of that crap. Itagaki has made it clear the order of his games:
DOA4, DOAX2, Ninja Gaiden 2, Code Chronus
Those are Itagaki's games, Sigma is NOT Itagaki's game, it's handled by an entirely different person. It might come to the 360, might not.

If everyone in this thread would just go here:

And watch the damn video. There would be no confusion left in this thread.

true, and they said it was new IP i guess. it's the name "progressive" seems to go with the whole developing for another system thing.
