Where are the enemie's shadows? No dynamic shadowing on all characters and mobile objects? Come on, using shadow buffers, ala Splinter Cell, is a nice technique for global shadowing.

Famitsu X-BOX said this winter for Japan, and winter 2003 for US. The coverage on this issue has even more shots than the above in open areas/outdoors.
Both DOA Online and Ninja Gaiden will be the best looking games ever existed on consoles when they are released.
That's an awfully big weapon for a ninja to be wielding in the middle pics, there! Hehe... It's just good to see not every creature is a glowing purple thing. 
Hopefully sometime next gen we'll start getting games that will make weapons like clubs and nunchaku swing, strike, and rebound, rather than every weapon swing through models like butter. (Rather see different reactions from swords, too, but at least it's easier to understand with obscenely sharp and thin things. Hehe...

I don´t think this game is really impressive. Yeah, it looks good, but has many flaws. In the first pictures, this ninja has no reflection. In every single-shot, there are no shadow for any of his weapons. Besides, the enemies in a lot of pics just have a circle for a shadow or don´t have any at all. Also, it´s a big waste that they hadn´t implemented bump-mapping, with all the environments that could have used it. Too bad.
And BTW, Rebel Strike looks way better than this game.

it maybe linked to a spell...
Excellent texturing and I like the architecture. Also the animation is unmatched!
But... for some reason, the graphics still remind me of Wind Waker sans Toon-Shading. I think its because the models are similarly made. High poly and very rounded.
Of course, WW probably has the more advanced effects, but NG does run at 60...

It is like semi fixed. DMC, Rygar, SH, Castlevania type of camera rather than your 3rd person behind the player camera of JSRF, JD.
People who played the demo, said the damn game looks as good as those screens!! Granted im sure it wouldnt be as smooth AAed but godamn the power of X!

That's the power of developing games just for a certain spec for you. This game being done on primitive hardware looks better than most PC games.
