I am glad they are finally releasing it in america first before japan because games always launch there first. This is a first day buy for me. I cant wait to play the story mode, should be awesome.

Fat Princess5753d ago

Same. Too bad we have to wait until November to get it. >< I'm not complaining though 'cause there are so many other games I want coming out before then.

Voozi5753d ago

My only complaint aside from no online is that you can only bring in two jutsus with you (your ultimate and the standard one). I was hoping you'd be able to do like 2-3+ different jutsus during a fight + your ultimate just like in the show

Other then that it's shaping up to be a pretty good Naruto game, I'll most likely end up getting it

games4fun5753d ago

i want to buy to support the dev team for all the hard work but i cant buy it because the no online kills it for me since its fighter

my hope is they still make enough to release a sequel with online which i will buy :)

No One Makes Anime Games Quite As Well As CyberConnect2

There's nothing quite like flying in DBZ: Kakarot or Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm's battles.

That's also the problem. They are decent but never truly ambitious in challenging the powerhouses of any genre whether RPG or fighting.

Outlawzz1051d ago

Completely agree. Their games never quite reach that high point. They have potential but it's like they hold themselves back.

melons1051d ago

They do seem to have taken a safe route with the new Demon Slayer game though, which has no demons to slay (???) and is very similar to Ninja Storm.

spartan112g1051d ago

I mean, ArcSys makes better anime games in Guilty Gear and FighterZ, so this argument fell on its face quick.

Pepsi_Man30001051d ago

Those are both fighting games based off of an anime. Naruto storm, my hero one justice, that shitty one punch man game, etc are the games the writer is talking about Im sure

lucian2291051d ago

except naruto games are barely actual deep fighting games

BrainSyphoned1051d ago

Or 20 second fights fall on their face when portraying multi season anime.

Outlawzz1051d ago

I like the games they work on and how they recreate the feel of the anime. They are masters of that imo but the gameplay is usually basic and doesn't ever try anything new. It's mostly the same over and over.

So that basically only ever makes it a good game with lots of potential to be a great game.

Pepsi_Man30001051d ago

CC2 has a lot of potential. Theyre amazing when it comes to spectacle. Naruto storm looked great and asuras was amazing cinematic wise, but theyre gameplay needs so much improvement. Its so damn basic. Its like they hold themselves back. I remember the reveal trailer for asuras wrath having body slams, and suplexes, dragging enemies across the ground etc. And for some weird reason all of that was removed for gameplay that was hardly anything more than mashing the circle button.

And its even more frustrating cuz theyve done how many storm games now. Youd think they wouldve managed ti improve but tis like theyre not even trying. Idk man. I just feel like a dev like them shouldve been way bigger by now
