Must Play for Naruto Fans
Excellent Naruto game. Highly recommended to any fans of the manga/TV series. The fighting system is fantastic and offers much of the small input/big output gratification that God of War characterizes. The option to select English or Japanese voices was also appreciated. While there are some mission types in the main mode that will get tiresome, the story arc missions are as good or better than watching the TV series. Once you get past some of the load times, the battles are very fluid and there is a lot of action on screen. I really liked the team-based battle system that allows you to tag in 2 teammates (similar to original Marvel vs. Capcom). I've played this game for hours and still enjoy it. While I doubt it will happen, I would love to see Namco Bandai release DLC to add characters and missions into the Hurricane Chronicles story arc similar to what they have done to date. Naruto fans and casual fighting/action game fans alike should definitely check this one out.
