Please buy this game...
Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Is this that 360 one by Ubisoft? mmm not sure..

The fighting system on that looked stiff, especially compared with the lastest japanese-developed Wii game by Eighting. (which kicks ass).

This game is more like an adevnture open gta styled game too,and not just a lame fighting game.

I dunno, I mean I like Naruto somewhat, but I' m no fan, and an anime game turns great sounds impossible to me... It just cannot happen.

I' ll half go along with that. The combat in the Wii game looks better - but that' s because it' s a fighting game.

The 360 game is an action RPG of sorts. The combat takes place almost exactly like the previous Naruto games/like the Wii game, but it' s also not the main focus of the game. There' s obviously (from the footage we' ve seen) an emphasis on platforming, exploration and GTA-esque missions, and it looks great.

As for just how deep or shallow the combat system is - i guess we' ll see - but one thing' s for sure, if you like the anime then you' ll more than likely be intrigued by this game.











It' s out this Friday and i' ve already got it ordered...

Fighting games based on anime is the most stupid thing I know.
If you want to play a good fighting game then you play Virtua Fighter or Tekken.
If you want to be in an interactive anime then you play anime adventure/action games.
So anime-based fighting games have no purpose at all. I' m not a fan of Naruto so I won' t buy any of these games but if I had to pick one then the 360 game would be the obvious choice.

Just got a mail from the internet gameshop called " webhallen" here in Sweden,which said they sent out my game today.

Usually it takes 1-2 days after that mail to get the game,

So obviously I will have the game before the EU launch :)

And btw no,this game doesnt look " AAA" but it looks pretty damn good,especially for being a game based on a manga/anime and its 1-80 episodes.

Why would they cut it just before the kick ass characters come in? They take it up to
episode 80 and that' s it? That' s 2 episodes before Itachi makes his cameo and he' s
frikkin' badass!
There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

To warrent a sequal if this game sells well I assume. Maybe even use the usual anime cliffhanger ending revealing additional characters...I have yet to see the series myself and being in the US all I got is the watered down crap on tv. I may search out the original versions. I haven' t really bought any anime for sometime now. What puts this above the rest?

I like Naruto, but it' s not as good as Stand Alone Complex, Ergo Proxy, Blood + and the like.

It' s worth watching though.

Hey did you catch Afro Samurai?

This Is a title I' m really interested in.

You don' t have to tell me twice.


If we' re talking about Anime, I personally prefer Death Note. Naruto and Bleach are fighting for second for me.

Because at episode 80 it ends in a very fitting way,im sure there will be a sequal anyway.

Btw there is no Japanese voices for the game.

However ubi soft sent out a statement today that they will add it through DLC for free as soon as possible,and that the voice actors has now signed úp for the work.

Awesome?

The game is a strong 8/10.

Nothing more nothing less.

Would have hoped it was a 9/10 but it isnt.

They cutted some story and character segments which I can understand and still not...

However the combat is great,the plattforming and rpg experience is great,the graphic is fantastic,the city is very well down etc.

Its a strong 8/10.

Over xbl with tons of characters in battles+tournament mode were pretty cool to.
great game,delivered on what I expected/demanded.
But never beyond sadly.
Played it for over 5 hours today,will probably do so tomorrow to.

ps! just finished the the exam test at forest of death.

Here is my thread over at Ubi soft.


great game and everything,even though I suck at beat em up I got stats 11-9 now online,nice!!!

And I feel secure with my characters,great job.
The graphic were amazing btw,awesome jobs,looks way better in motion then on any screen/video clip.
But now for the negative parts,it seems you skipped tons of story segments,or atleast dialogs etc.
Suddenly you get to hear you need to tell Sasuke and Sakura to follow you to a mission vs kakashi.

I mean,for the new player what kind of way is that to introduce them?
To find characters they never seen,or heard about?
Easy for us who knows how they look and since the Anime introduced them+their personality long before the test to catch the bell from Kakashi.

Alos some of ther personality was lost in this game too,next time you do a game,feel free to add some longer dialogs or story sequence instead of making it like this.

5 sentencs about a threat in a land,then you do some plattform and then its boss fight.
How about adding some places with villages on the way to talk with,were the group could chat etc.

Or atleast have places were you can talk with people to get some personailty from the characters.

And btw lots of the characters were just introduce in bad places,and too late then what they should have.

Now I understand you focused on the plattform/beat' em up part and most on introducing Naruto,but please next time,try to fill up the story a bit more and give some space for the characters,you hardly shown them at all and introduced them long after the anime did.

I' ve played now ca 5 hours and im at the end of the exam vs Neji soon.

Well perhaps not very soon,since I just meet Jiraiya and I have no idea what will happend afterwards but anyway...its still a great game.

The city and the art is fantastic,the gameplay is awesome too.

Impressive!, It has also received an IGN Editor' s choice award!

...To me this game was a must buy from the first day!
Especially since it' s been a long time that I like to play
a modern action adventure game with CELL-Shaded graphics...

Free Roaming/Fighting Gameplay+Japanese locations and more!!!
^Sounds like some familiar features from Jet Set Radio, Shenmue & etc!

I' ll get it...(definitely)

BTW about two weeks a go while GAME ONE(A French gaming tv channel)
while was showing a preview from this game they mentioned to Shenmue...
although I don' t really know French but I' m pretty sure that they said
it reminds us Shenmue(because of it' s Shenmue-like game play elements!)


Assasin' s Creed is the other game which I want to play it
beside this game...(although it doesn' t have the spirit of Japan!)
At TGS 2007 Yu Suzuki was checking this game!(a 1UP editor has
also captured a pic from him!,LOL!)

8.4!

***, it cannot be! It goes against the laws of nature! No way! Am I going to be forced into buying this! SHIT! Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?! I cannot accept this! Why does it look good? Why does it get good score? Is this the end of the world? I C No people outside! Am I the only one left?

Seriously, now from being on the bottom of my games 2 get list, the game might' ve bumped to a first spot. Not because I believe the game is a better buy than CoD4, rather because an anime game getting scores THAT good, automatically recieves +2 points because they managed to do it. I didn' t want this game, but now I do. ***, another expense on my already expensive November month!

Edit:

Just read the review, seems for being 80 eps.
