My Review on Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm!
Main Story Line: the story line of NUNS goes almost exactly as the story line in the TV show but with some mix ups in characters fighting and it starts past the Zabuza episodes. All you do in the story is you: fight enemys, climb trees, climb through forests, and collect things. Thts basicly it. But dont worry the enemys get harder and some of the chalanges get hard too. There are two main misson selection lists to choose from: the main story, and shown in different ranked sections: side missions tht involve helping people do things.
Gameplay: the gameplay and graphics are AWESOME! it looks as if you are in the real hidden leaf village. The gameplay is really fun! for single player: instead of just having a mission select screen you get to rome around the village and talk to people. I really liked this because you get more freedom and it is more realalistic. in the single player story mode you also get to use the new feature called: the naruto cannon. the naruto cannon lets you launch yourself using a shadow clone to move further and faster. this was cool because it was very usefull and fun to use. ( feel free to launch naruto at a wall or something ) Although the game is another, but better version of the classic, button mashing naruto games. Another cool feature is tht you get to make some ramen! you collect ramen by finding ingredient bags and by defeating enemys. What does the ramen do? well the ramen boosters your chakara ( energy in english ) bar so your naruto cannon can go farther and you can dash longer.
Multiplayer: the multiplay game mode was simply GREAT! you get to kick people onto walls, call in teammates, use special moves to destroy the enemys ( your friend's ) health bar, and go into the character's "2nd mode". in second mode your character gets a special power boost according to wut they can acctully do in the TV show. this i found was really awesome, because you can attemp to beat the enemy with low health and take that last stand. And a bonus to it is that some characters ( according to the TV show ) get a speical "2nd mode" and turn into a special "monster" or have a big power up ( basicly they change apearance ) AND their special attack gets changed ( which was cool ). please note all of this can be used in single player story mode.
OVERAL : overal i think NUNS is a great game. But the sometimes the repetition in the games story mode brings it down a bit. And the button mashing can obviously get boring. but kicking someones butt is always fun. On the up side, NUNS is great for playing with a friend over, the graphics are awesome, gameplay is fun and you get to use new characters never used in the other games!
