Here is a new video interview of upcoming Xbox360 exclusive game Naruto: Rise of the Ninja, developed by Ubisoft, by GR. Continue to to find out what the devs are doing to this game and what is so different about it.
Daniel Hill Writes - Last week, I constructed a list of what I thought to be the five best uses of cel shading in gaming in terms of how effectively they melded with the feel, atmosphere and mood of the game. While I think my original list was strong and I stand by my original choices, it was not without its flaws, and thanks to the always-insightful comments section, I realized that there were some titles that deserved to be there, but weren’t. I’m doing this to appease no one but me…don’t call me Bioware. As an enthusiast, no, a beau of this writer’s inamorata that is cel shading, I am giving these games shine because they do, indeed, do use cel shading beautifully.
In those cases, i think added more to pure aesthitics than the feel of the game, something i think these titles did a littke better. I almost put PoP though.
So gutted I missed out on XIII and Killer 7, would love them to be re-released at some point.
I gotta say I'd take a HD Wind Waker over any of them tho!
Namco Bandai's Naruto Rise of a Ninja is now available for digital purchase via the Xbox Live's Game on Demand.
Naruto; Rise of a Ninja costs 10 euro in our local stores.
It's 30 DOLLARS in the USA through the 'on demand', which is like 22 euro(!)
The price for this game On Demand for people in Holland: 30 euro! Which is 41 dollars(!) for a game that's over 2 years old and is available in stores with casing and booklet for a third of the price(!)
Nice going, Microsoft(!)
I can't believe there are actually idiots out there buying these On Demand 'offers'. You'd be ripped off. You can pick up 3-4 good quality games from the bargain-bins instead of buying one of these 'on demand' deals.
You'd THINK that cutting out the middle man (retailer) and cutting out all the costs of the casing, booklet, transport, etc etc, would mean these games could be offered for a relatively fair and cheap price through the On Demand option, but I guess Microsoft thinks differently...
Microsoft has announced a new starting price for Xbox 360 Classics in Europe, and three new blockbuster titles for the program, offering high quality experiences at outstanding value. From this month, Grand Theft Auto IV, Midnight Club Los Angeles: Complete Edition and BioShock will join the best selection of Xbox 360 games in the Classics range. A selection of titles, including Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: VEGAS 2 and Naruto: Rise of a Ninja will now be available with a Recommended Retail Price (RRP) of just £14.99.
”It makes more sense,they want to make the game for the European and American Market” He also says that ”
funny the guy talks alot about the japanese gamers and their unique taste yet the game is for other markets.
He also says that ” the game cannot be done on or finish any other platform because of the details”
its called incompetence.
Bladestar:
Simply take a look at the PS2 uzumaki chronicles. i wont waste my time with a blind kiddo.Keep loving Microsoft for they one day will love you back. Toodles.
game on been done on console a cannot be done on any other console ? i mean come on now..this is getting ridiculous.
Who cares what console a game can and cannot be done on and why does it bother people to hear this! This game looks hot and will be in my 360 come October! I love how you can take your character online and fight which would of been cool in shadow run if you could of played the single player and taken online what you've learned! Akira would be a hot game also and hopefully we will see another Phantom Dust game here at E3!
One of my brothers is an 27 year old Architect that works for a company Callison Architecture Inc in Seattle.
On friday nights he will not go out untill he watches this Show when he's at parties or get togethers he will find a TV and watch it that is how much he loves this NO LIE!, he does not play Video games but when i told him it was coming out on the 360 he said he will buy a 360.
He has hooked me on the show aswell and i'v been watching it for two weeks now(last show was great Naruto's sisters anger is off the hook.
Alot of drama with too much suspence leaving one hanging untill the next episode though). Game looks stellar the gameplay looks off the hook!.
This game will sell tons of copies! Ubisoft knows that 360 has been very good to them in terms of sales. As for the only capable on the 360, he says what he wants to. Maybe it's a new type of physics or animation that can only be done on the 360. It as to be something. I don't and neither do any of you. And Ps3 and 360 can do things the others can't. Is that so hard to get?!? BTW the game looks mighty gorgeous. Very true to the style.
