from your COD4 comment:

"Who cares.. People with jobs will buy it.
If its too short, you can always trade."

Darkiewonder6026d ago (Edited 6026d ago )

At 800 Points you can get each new episodes to extend the games life.

Devs care enough to give our games DLC, where is yours?

wageslave6026d ago

The review just said "Best Naruto Game Ever". And -you- having never played it just dismiss it?

Undoubtably, the problem is you cant play it on your PS3. If you could, Im sure you'd be singing a very very different tune.

The game looks better than the anime, the art direction is terrific. And, with an 8 hour campaign, plus online modes, its longer than most games.

If they ship DLC, it may very well be worthwhile. This is a probable-buy but sure rent for me, I'll pick it up. I love the art direction here.

nupes986026d ago

I'm definitely picking it up

Shaka2K66026d ago

I can see why this game is only possible on x360 now.

ThaGeNeCySt6026d ago

explain heavenly sword being 6 hours and uncharted being 10.

wageslave6026d ago

I'll explain why it is 8 hours. Because games are written with BUDGETS and code/art/models and animation are linear in cost with total game play.

This is why disc size is irrelevant, because the limiting factor is BUDGETS not discs.

InMyOpinion6026d ago

And the fact that they need to fill the blu-ray disc with the same textures over and over again to give the games decent load times.

mesh16025d ago

NOT TO mention that the uncharted footage posted on this site the 10min clip has sooooo much CGI CUTSCENes that u dont play the game u watch it lolPLAYbeyond ps3driods.

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...
