Naruto: new footage (4.18 min)

Naruto: Rise of a Ninja is one of a kind in it's artwork. Embedded Xboxkings give you 4.18 minutes of single player footage from Gamevideos, that shows a walk around through a city and interaction with other persons.

This could give the 360 a boost of hardware sales in Japan, as they're loving this cartoon. Here at Xboxkings we must say: playing it seems like watching the cartoon, it looks really, really good. What about you?

even though i don't care about naruto it's good to see something different on x360

power of Green 6051d ago

Most diverse Next-gen console on the market. Hmmm...

Douchebaggery6051d ago

but would you mind elaborating i might be missing something

power of Green 6051d ago

Its not an opinion... What you're missing is clearly not knowing or looking at MSFT's lineup as a whole.

I wasn't trying to start a fight and its refreshing to get a civil response. Bubbles 4 U.

Pete_Approved6051d ago

I really waiting for this game to come out!! I love naruto :P And its cool its Xbox360!

Naruto Suckz with his hi pitch voice

risk6051d ago

they both suck......in English! watch it in Japanese and prepare to be rocked. 2bad dvd9 probably wont have Japanese voice acting in it :/ ruins an otherwise perfect game.

BLaZiN PRopHeT6051d ago

@3.2 what are you talking about the game will have the Japaneses voice acting.

SmokeyMcBear6051d ago

that was pretty funny, basically playing a cartoon which is cool Is this game out yet, or still to be released. Because I have seen naruto game commercials on tv.. well a lot actually lately, but they are for the ps2.. thats interesting.

Pete_Approved6051d ago

The game will be released on 23 okt. oh.. sorry TheMART, didn`t saw yah :P

felidae6051d ago

but does anybody care about Naruto?

Pete_Approved6051d ago

hah, yah you don`t care right. :P
This game will rock on the Xbox360! The graphics, the sound! All. gooood.

fjtorres6051d ago

For whom it happens to be the *only* show worth watching. ;-)
Also anime fans of all ages; the kind that download anime shows from the 360 Video Marketplace.
There's a reason UBIsoft licensed the western rights to the game for a 360-exclusive.

wageslave6046d ago (Edited 6046d ago )

Will anyone care? Uhm, the next-gen debut of the most popular Anime Show on Television?

This is going to sell a lot of Xboxs to young teens. Next time you talk to a 10 year old boy or girl, ask them about this game.

Or, ask anyone knowledgable about Popular Eastern Media or culture.

The 5 Best Uses of Cel Shading In Video Games: Part Deux

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.

Still missing Prince of Persia and DQ8, but you can't fit them all into one list.

snipes1014325d ago

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.

sknygy4325d ago

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!

snipes1014325d ago

Both of those games are BC on xbox an ps3 (if you dont have a ps slim)

sknygy4324d ago

Thanks for the heads up!

sriki0074325d ago (Edited 4325d ago )

borderlands is one of the best cel shaded game.

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...
