Naruto's first 360 adventure in the U.S.A. The question is, though, is it any good?
The story, is nothing new. It follows the beginning when the Fourth Hokage seals the Nine-Tailed Fox sprit inside baby Naruto. 12 years later, Naruto wants to become Hokage. (Sorry for the bad story summary.) If you watched the show, you know what happens. It goes up to the Tsunade arc, and does not go into the Sasuke Retrieveal arc. The story is the same, typically found in other Naruto games.
There is some new gameplay, along with some old gameplay. You can roam around the Hidden Leaf Village, find quests, make people happy, play through the main story, stuff like that. You can find gold coins scattered around the villages, used for various purposes. If you fight, you'll see a different system then the Ultimate Ninja and Clash of Ninja games. You'll use the X and Y buttons to fight, and can use justu. Using justu causes damage, but you have to be quick, as the minigames are really quick. Another gameplay element is running and jumping. You can now jump up buildings, run on them, jump on crates, that stuff.
Now, the problem. I do not know if it was the disc, or the actual game itself, but, some of the village was floating, and there were pits of darkness around it. A small portion of the buildings also disappeared. I was forced to restart my game. That was just odd.
The graphics are good. Lighting is good, animation and models look good, that stuff. One things annyoing is that some Naruto characters don't have the voice actors that play them on TV. I think Iruka, Mizuki, Jiryia (however you spell his name), and the Third Hokage have different actors.
Overall, the game is good. Sorry for the spelling errors, yet again.
