It's no different than trying to play a Star Wars game without knowing any of that Universe.
NS:UNS2 actually does brilliantly in explaining the basics to players who know nothing of the Naruto Universe.
There are other countries you know :-p CVG is UK based.
There will be a review on MediaKick ( http://mediakick.org) 9am (BST) Friday.
So eloquently written. Yes I know that it's only had one 'official' delay, but the number of times its been pushed back from either developer or publisher hints is substance enough to place that kind of comment.
Agreed. Gameplay over graphics any day.
However, I disagree on everything else you say. I - like many others - loved the gameplay for GoW3, it is the epitome of hack'n'slash games. The graphics are also stunning which is always great.
Eight hours of intense and superb gameplay is more than enough for me and has already seen two playthroughs, which is a very rare case with the number of titles I have to get through.
When you say "Big 4" sports games, you mean in America yeah?
Pretty sure F1, 'Football', Cricket and Rugby have bigger worldwide appeal than American football, baseball, hockey and basketball.
@mint royale: You may stick to your point, but it's wrong. You would class Microsoft as a singular entity. If you were to say some of the Microsoft employees, then that is plural.
Also, in relation to the Manchester United example, you are shortening Manchester United Football Club for ease of use which in this case is defining a singular entity again, as the club is buying Ronaldo, therefore it would be "Manchester Utd has signed Ronaldo."
Are you kidding me?! This was everywhere last week and isn't even a cancelled Ubisoft game. What laughable 'journalism' from videogameszone.de!
This was debunked around 11:00 (BST)/15 hours ago! Why are sites still running with this? Shocking.
It's been debunked as having any connection with Ubisoft.

The blog stated that it was Fake Gameplay Footage, as in rendered to look like Gameplay.
However, it has since been debunked to have any connection with Ubi.
"Some" good articles doesn't mean anything if you have as many awful ones.
Ha! What pisses you off about Sony? Nintendo do it with their controllers (controller, motion plus, nunchuck) and Microsoft have done it with the Xbox 360 (online sub, WiFi, charger, etc).
Just buy the bundle and you're set.
That's fine then :-) Everyone has different tastes. Wish people would remember that.
I disagree. You can be very informed without owning the console. Especially if you write for a gaming website.
You may not have it, but then surely Nintendo's press conference should try to persuade you to want to buy one. If it did not do that to these guys, then they are in every right to be disappointed by the press conference.
When you say "we"... You mean?
I'm sorry but don't speak on behalf of 99% other sites as you'd be wrong.
Yes Nintendo's press conference was very good. Was it awesome? Not in my opinion. And the 3DS was not the show stealer for me. We already knew it was going to be there and without seeing it first hand it's hard to get really excited about it.
Hits mean nothing. There's what, 20 million more Wii owners? And not counting the number of DS owners, so the likelihood ...
According to reports, you need to install some software for Kinect so you would need a HDD.
These are the officially released image from Sega Europe.
The Evening Standard “review” has since been corrected after a Microsoft spokesperson said that it was mistakenly marked as review instead of preview.
