This game continues in the likeness of the first game bringing CyberConnect2's outstanding graphical engine for the series to the Shippuden storyline. Apart from the visuals, the game prides itself on going through the Naruto storyline up to and through the Pain Arc (that is through episodes 1-175 or through Naruto manga chapters 245-450 of the manga). This is a wise stopping point as the next game would be able to introduce the myriad of new ninjas that were shown at the next arc. I will not spoil the exact details of the storymode fights for that is to be discovered and enjoyed by the player spoilerfree. The games story mode follows in similar fashion to the first game in which there are a mix of selected fights from the manga/anime that are on transforming battlefields with large scale attacks as well as a mixture of regular fights. Although not every...

This is the latest in the Ultimate Ninja chain and takes place in the Naruto Shippuden era of the show, beginning with Naruto's return to the village and ending a little after Pain destroys the village. The story may not appear to familiar to someone who has only seen the American version of the show because it is farther ahead of the show's timeline. The story mode has you a lot more involved as character then the last game. You travel and speak to characters and agree to take missions instead of last game's method of simply accessing the menu and picking a mission. This makes the story mode of the game more interesting and more interactive but it also means that you end up having to run back and forth. The map is bigger compared to the last game and you can travel to other...

For any Naruto fan or fighting game fan the series is entertaining and playing the vast array of Naruto characters also brings out the enjoyment, but the one thing lacking which I truly enjoyed with the earlier mentioned games was the free roaming village scenario you got to do in those games which this doesn't have sadly. So yes while it's fun to play the game especially with a friend or two I kinda wish Ubisoft would be able to make a new Naruto game as well as I felt that those games were just as good sometimes a little better in some areas for the Naruto fan out there but anyway for the price this is going for right now I'd say it's worth getting either way. Sadly though even with this falling into the Shippuden Arc I just couldn't get into the game as much as I did with the first one, also with the games glitzy... Read more |
