Am is addicted to the demo. So good. So beautiful. Its a day one.

I hate this anime and i dont know anything about naruto but the game is awesome, well the demo was. Its a fun fighting game, unfortunetly it looks way better than MK vs DC

Let's no mention that trash , the DC mmo looks even better than that MK game .

Regardless of fanboyism issues , it's obvious that only CyberConnect2 on ps2 , psp or now ps3 truly gets the franchise , and respect its artstyle to begin with ...

No thick stupid black lines to make it looks like an anime , no stiff and wrong animations , no weirdly rendered realsitic backgrounds with yet again those annoying black lines ... more than just flashy 3d lights ro effects , no clean renders inside those lines without shadow and just clean cheap texture but actual shadows or inking effects... they truly get cellshading and at least in designs , how to render an anime adaptation .

i'm very peculiar when it comes to cell shading , as i feel that most of the time it's so badly done . Thats why something like ubi's naruto tick me off , regardless of the involved platform . its not a console turf war thing , since i also dislike how their prince of Persia new title looks .

POP seems actually beautifully well rendered , but imo that damn filter they lazily applies as cellshading ruins it a bit . They just have done it better , and not just mix up what looks like a "black line and bright colors" filter to they good and "realistic" renders and backgrounds . It's not a matter of it not looking cartoony and realistic , both just go hand to hand and worked upon .

Now , as for the gameplay , again CC2 already nailed it long ago , with their refinement and changes , it only gets better and unmatched . All they need is to improve their adventure/rpg modes , wich they do every time , despite what some people try to forget .

10x better than I though it would be! and i already had high expectations for it. it rocks

has anybody played a fighting game can see this is no ordinary fighter.
its more than just mashing, there is a finnesse of techniques!

this is the true naruto game & mores sales equal to obvious
multiplayer download. My theory.
no doubt this will sell & I have no problem playing a friend at thier house.

Truly remarkable & I'm just talking about the demo I spend a hour on
everynight!

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

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.

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.

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
