anyone know if there is freeroam? the 360 one had it and the one that just came out on PS2 has it soo, kinda stupid not to.

Also i heard that this will only be released in japan because the show here hasnt caught up? anyone confirm? thanks.

If the newest PS2 game had free-roaming, I would assume this one would as well as it's the same developer.

Also I don't know what episode the US is at, but from the looks of the cover art. The game seems to be from the first series (NOT shippuden). So I'm guessing there might be a chance. Worst case scenario, we just have to wait till they air episode 135. Which I bet can't be that far off.

Richdad6537d ago

Game is made by the same team that has made Naruto Ultimate Ninja 3 for PS2, I played their eariler games it was better than the lot of Naruto games on PS2. The 360 version was very griping though and kind of sucks you in.
But this one would be good too. Its made by Cyberconnect2 they have made .Hack series earlier. This will not be a AAA title but surely might have its place.

mr_potato6537d ago

No this is from the Shippuden episodes(or whirlwind series in US) i know cause in the vids kakachi naruto and saske and sakura all had their shippuden cloes and i think i saw an ododma rasengan.

As for this coming in the US i don't think it will at first but later yes anyway if the game has english subs when it's realesed in Japan im so gonna import it.

Im a big fan of the series and im really happy we get a game of it.

Lord Anubis6538d ago

did you watch the English version?
The story is ok. I already read all the way to where on the main character dies i expected more from Naruto but it's ok.

I prefer bleach though, the story is much much better and i read pretty much the whole series. Too bad the anime has not caught up with the manga.

If anyone wants the links for the english mangas let me know. They are worth it.

pwnmaster30006538d ago

i used to be all naruto but now i just think its overated but its still ok, the only anime i watch now is deathnote, intial d and avatar. i also like cowboybebop, wich i think they should make a game out of

GCO Gamer6538d ago

"bleach" never watch that show naruto,dead note and DBZ

Charlie26886538d ago

define "good old animes" -_-

Naruto is 110% PURE RAW Shonen if you are into it its one of the best to see in recent years...no point in trying to compare it to other anime genres or using the "overrated" card

pwnmaster30006538d ago

where not comparing were just saying wat we watch and ar oppinions

kg73106538d ago

The best anime ever has always been Dragonball Z, then comes Naruto, then Death Note. I dont like bleach though :S

gambare6538d ago

games4fun6538d ago

ONEPIECE its goofy at first but the battle get to be pretty epic after a while

MisfitSmurf6538d ago

naruto, bleach, and death note bores me, im more into elfen lied, witch hunter robin and outlaw star

i used to like naruto but it just got got boring after the water country episodes, bleach never liked it cause of the bits on comedy in the action scenes bad dialog and annoying voice actors both english and japanese, death note i could never really get into :/

kingOVsticks6538d ago

Its partially because its on cartoon network but Its not that bad naruto shippuden is alot better and bleach is decent but i know what you mean animes like tenchi muyo,evagelion, and macross were classics but I replace those with new anime like zero no louise,dragonaut,clannad,schoo l rumble etc all the good anime that aren't dubbed yet. Oh but naruto game looks amazing check vid

Obama6538d ago

Yeah Misfitsmurf, Elfen lied is great.

Adamalicious6538d ago

Naruto "translated" into English are intolerably bad. Naruto fansubs (Dattebayo or AnimeOne & ANBU) with the original audio are actually really good. I used to think Naruto was lame too, until I started watching it in Japanese.

RecSpec6538d ago

Naruto now is what Dragon Ball Z was back then.

And Death Note is a lousy anime, it's way better as a manga.

Reply Agree 0 Disagree 2

Richdad6537d ago

Naruto is one the last great Anime left since most Japanese Devs are flocking too games and animes are getting low in quality thats why I remeber DBZ I cant say any anime would come near abt that but Naruto do had some great things.
Atleast its better than that Pokemon it got really worse when Johto Journey started. Naruto is still a very good anime. I can say that it has all emotions in it and the story is potrayed beautifully.

I stopped watching the anime since the filler arcs back in 2006.
I read the manga every week which to me is TONS better than the anime.
Haven't started watching Naruto Shippuden, but I might get into it when it gets to where the manga is right now some seriously epic battles and key events are taking place right now. Really good reading.

Bleach also has me especially excited with the events that are currently occurring in the manga. Can't wait to see the battles that are about to go down.

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

Outlawzz1704d ago

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

melons1704d 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.

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

Pepsi_Man30001704d 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

lucian2291704d ago

except naruto games are barely actual deep fighting games

BrainSyphoned1704d ago

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

Outlawzz1704d 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_Man30001704d 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

Rachel_Alucard1704d ago

As others have said, CC2 only focuses on the spectacle of their work, they refuse to make anything thats beyond puddle deep due to them believing that a majority of the anime fanbase is incapable of doing more then mashing O/B all day. They try add mechanics in between mashing one button but limiting movesets to a single button is the problem because it allows no combo routes or freedom because of that. What I found most ironic is the My hero arena fighter unironically had more depth to it with fighting, except that game suffers from dumb mechanics, slower gameplay, and supers that take forever to play out. Just look up combo videos for Ones justice 2 to see what I mean.

SDuck1704d ago

CC2 is a modeling, visual and animation studio. If they partnered with any studio that makes good games (gameplay wise) they'd make miracles!

BrainSyphoned1704d ago (Edited 1704d ago )

Either Aquria for Sword Art Online or Cyberconnect 2 for the .Hack series. Gust with Fairy Tail coming up third.

All the anime fighter games i just leave in a generic pile and ignore (wether they are generic or not). I bought Kakarot on sale but the chances of me actully playing more than the first hour are slim.

lucian2291704d ago

ehhh they look nice and the special attacks are cool but the combo is literally all copypaste Naruto

VersusDMC1704d ago

I see no mention of Asura's Wrath here and it saddens me. While it isn't a licensed anime...it is pure anime though. Whoever doesn't know what that is needs to you tube it right now.

Skuletor1704d ago

I remember it being controversial because they locked the "true" ending behind DLC

VersusDMC1704d ago

That is correct. Also that it's mostly cut scenes with quick time events. And average base gameplay. Doesn't negate the fact that it's awesome anime action. Doesn't cost extra to watch the whole on YouTube now.

Skuletor1704d ago

@Versus

I own the base game on PS3 disc but didn't buy any of the DLC. Remember it having some street fighter stuff in it but that was DLC too, I believe

CrimsonWing691703d ago (Edited 1703d ago )

Honestly, the Ultimate Ninja Storm games are the only ones I like of theirs and if I'm being honest I only like the parts that go over-the-top and are cinematic. I'd probably go out on a limb here and say they're better at making cinematics than they are at making games. I love the concept of .hack, but that game is beyond repetitive and boring to play. The story is pretty interesting and I like the idea of a single player game emulating the experience of an MMO, but it's not that great to play or even to look at. I am kind of interested in what they were doing with the FF7 Remake, but I doubt it would've been great to play just judging from things like .hack and Kakarot.

SinisterKieran1703d ago

the ninja storms are amazing but kakarot was terrible.
i don't know if they did but i'd love for them to do a ninja storm MHA game. i knowq the mha game is already similar but if just isn't as good and not as visually impressive.
