    Man after looking at this review, I almost decided to buy this game...until the last couple seconds when he said No Online Gameplay! Love Naruto, but a fighting game nowadays gets old fast if the only thing you can do is play the computer or wait until your friends are free to play with you :/...hoping for a sequel to this with more characters and online

    Add more playable characters and more variety to the quests and this game would be a nine. Really fun.

    I've just played this game and i can say is, its been looked down a bit, its ratings doesn't deserve it. They should increase the ratings a little bit. This game is not that perfect but almost. There are some parts in the game that needs development but i think Gamespot should increase its score more than 7.5, maybe 8.0 or something will do. It is probably one of those Naruto games that you can say "amazing" for the first time you played it. Nice effects. beautifully rendered characters and a wow fightitng combat. It's intense gameplay makes it more exciting for the Naruto fans, i am a Naruto fan and i can say is, Bandai Namco, really did a good job creating this game, really impressive

    Have we already forgotten the purpose of video games? Tsk tsk. They're supposed to be fun, and that's all that matters. I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on the game, as I've only played the demo as of yet, and by yourself I'll agree it isn't amazing. However, play with a few friends and Kakashi v. Naruto transforms into hours of fun that has yet to get old. I suppose you have the right to knock the game on not being fun because you don't have the luxury of people to play with, but that's where the fun is, and that's all that matters 'in my opinion.'

    this is the best naruto game, needs more playable characters though....

    thing i hate about the game is you press 1 button to attack, in the aother hand the game's really awsome, its got the best looking graphics for a naruto game, characters look exactly like the ones in the anime, and also the gameplay is 95% exact as the way the fight in the anime

    "Ultimate Ninja Storm's biggest problem as a fighting game, is simply that it isn't JUST a fighting game."

    I disagree HIGHLY at this because, well, it's not Street Fighter ya know, and yes, you do have to play through Ultimate Mission Mode to unlock most of the characters, but the game isn't simply going to hand you everything on a silver platter from the start! If that were the case, Ultimate Mission Mode wouldn't really be the main mode of the game and it wouldn't have much purpose.

    And sure, it has some other so-called quote un-quote "minigames", but these can be really fun and enjoyable. Although he said the controls are easy to figure out, well, true, they follow the same layout for every character, but you can always crank up the CPU difficulty to challenge yourself.

    Altogether, I believe this game is very fun and enjoyable in it's own way and is great at converting from 2D Anime, to 3D Videogame. Any fan of the series will love this game and it may attract new fans as well.

    Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm is a great game that you have to admit is the best Naruto game even with the lame storytelling.

    The problem with broken bond is that it's not a straight up fighter, it has puzzles for example. If they had made it into a just straight of fighting game than that would have helped it alot.

    I'm sorry, but after playing this, Naruto the Broken Bond is a piece of trash compared to this awesome Naruto game. No, it's not quite a masterpiece but damn close to one. It literally KILLS any other game in terms of graphics. The gameplay is awesome; some may criticize the fact that O is the only punch button, but not only has this been the same since PS2 Ultimate Ninja 1, but it just plain out works for Naruto. Naruto is about fast paced action and this is where UNS has a huge advantage over Broken Bond, which has the dullest fighting system of the 3 Naruto console games this gen. It tries to be tekken but fails; Naruto is about fast paced action; and BB has a fighting system that, while using more buttons, just is too unexciting and slow paced to appeal to a true Naruto fan. May I mention that the character models SUCK in that game? The environments look phenomenal except one thing.....in UNS, Konoha actually LOOKS ACCURATELY like the Village from the show; In BB, the city looks great, except it looks NOTHING like Konoha. Konoha has wide open, moderately populated streets, like in UNS. BB has cramped, over populated streets, which doesn't feel like Konoha at all. Plus there aren't enough Naruto landmarks like in UNS. But there IS more to do in the city in BB than UNS.

    Overall, UNS just STOMPS on BB or any other Naruto game. No online play is a letdown, but its easy to forget when your competitor's (Broken Bond) online play is pure garbage, partly because its fighting system just doesn't suit Naruto's fast paced feel. This game is the BEST naruto game on the next-gen thus far, at least in my opinion.

    Still getting this. I am either neutral or actually prefer the things that brought down the score so this looks like a perfect game for me.
