HMV offers 1000 Live points for Ninja Gaiden 2 pre-orders

Entertainment retailer HMV is offering 1000 free Xbox Live points to consumers pre-ordering Microsoft's Ninja Gaiden 2, due for release June 6.

The promotion follows HMVs Grand Theft Auto IV deal which gave consumers Xbox Live points at vouchers worth over GBP 130.

"We're really happy to offer our customers yet another great pre-order incentive, this time with the epic Ninja Gaiden 2," commented Duncan La Barre, online game specialist at hmv.com.

"We've successfully run similar promotions in the past with the likes of Halo 3, Lost Odyssey, and most recently Grand Theft Auto IV."
