Review!!
You can choose companions from 40 characters, battle Akatsuki criminals and unlock awesome special attacks. Just like the previous Naruto game, you can expect fantastic graphics that look like they've jumped right out of the telly cartoon. The game also features three different story modes, with Naruto, Sasuke and Jiraya as the main characters.
Top Trivia!
There have been a stonking FORTY FOUR Naruto games made in the last seven years, spread across six different series! Very few of them have been released outside of Japan though. Boo!
If you're completely and utterly obsessed with Naruto, check out this awesome Collector's Edition. Available for PS3 and 360, it comes with a soundtrack CD, a limited edition anime cel with artwork by Masashi Kishimoto, and a download code for Minato, who won't be available anywhere else! There are only 50,000 copies available, so you'll have to get in there quickly if you want to snag one!
One of our fave features is that the fighting arenas - all 23 of them - are destructible, meaning that your epic scraps pack a real wallop! There's nothing quite like smashing an enemy with a super cool move, then watching them demolish the scenery when they land with a thump!
Yay! Our fave kid ninja is back with another game - Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 (phew!) follows the further adventures of the wannabe hero, and is one of the best looking anime games we've seen!
The game really does look like the cartoon - your mates will probably think you're just watching telly! Once you get the controller in your hand, you realise that it's actually a really deep and rewarding fighting game with loads of combos and Jutsu powers to unlock and master. It's fun to just mash about, having battles, but you'll want to put in some practice to really get the most out of this one.
Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 will have an online mode, the first time a game from the series has offered players the chance to battle fellow ninjas from around the world!
