If you're completely obsessed with the Shippuden series or you don't have a PS3, Ultimate Ninja 4 is still a fair Naruto game and has enough unlockables to keep you busy for a long time. But the battle system just doesn't feel right after you've played Ultimate Ninja Storm (which is also a much better game for players not overly familiar with Naruto). But if you're not even a fan of the Naruto universe, you should skip Ultimate Ninja 4 altogether.

Hell yeah, Chou Odama Rasengan! So happy they gave Naruto that! Though I was hoping they'd show off a little of Tobi from 16 years ago... The serious version if you will... Here's hoping Madara is one of their last remaining unannounced characters! If not, well... DLC lol!
PSX Extreme writes: "Okay, I'll be brutally honest: I really don't care about Naruto or anime at all. In fact, I find most all anime to be unappealing and even embarrassingly bad in some cases, which is why I always have difficulty keeping an open mind when I review the latest CyberConnect2 production. I struggle through long enough to write an accurate review, but I always dread doing it; I just fail to see the attraction in a bunch of poorly drawn, terribly voiced characters running at each other in seizure-inducing battle scenes."
MyGamer writes: "Because of this, it's difficult to give the title a positive review, or my endorsement for purchase. Mediocre Naruto games are by no means uncommon, and this one brings a sizable price tag for a PS2 title that lacks online support. If you want a seriously pretty game, get Ultimate Ninja Storm for the PS3. If you want a cool story mode, get Ultimate Ninja 3 for the PS2 (or one of the DS titles). If you want a good game, get Clash of Ninja Revolution 2. For me, all those things are more important than getting older versions of the characters. If you're willing to pay $40 to sate your Shippuden needs…then pick up this game. I'll keep my two Andrew Jacksons, though".
