An ultra secret ninja assassin becomes an ultra secret idiot!

User Rating: 3 | Naruto: Gekitou Ninja Taisen GC
No offense but this isn’t my idea of a real fighting game. I played it at a friend’s house and soon wanted to stop playing because it is something you don’t have fun with. What kind of ninja would wear white short and what kind of ultra secret ninja assassin wears an orange track suit? If you don’t want to be seen in the shadows, then wear anything but orange.

This game’s gameplay is even worse than the worst fighting game ever. You have these boring modes that make you go through fight after fight after fight. The fighting is boring with terrible control with no combos that are useful and ultimately makes this frustrating and hard. Pointless button mashing is an easy way to win a fight against a friend and throwing a bunch of ninjitsu knives is pointless, why, because they either don’t hit at all or do like no damage. The best way to win is to keep throwing ninjitsu knives and get hit a lot and then finish your opponent with the cheap X button. The X button does this really cheap move the computers don’t even bother dodging. The characters are really hard to choose from, a guy with white boxer shorts, a “ninja” in an orange track suit, a freak who looks like he has a gas mask on, and some more characters that aren’t worth mentioning.

The graphics are okay as it looks like it comes straight from the TV show that my brother watches. There are some big places of improvement. The characters look like they came from the show as well so graphics are the only good part to this game.

The voice actors were terrible and they were no music or anything to make this game shine from the rest. Naruto sounds like a girl who woke up from a coma and there is this guy who talks while spitting fire from his mouth. There are no sound effects except for each fighter’s grunts and groans.

There is no point in buying this game, it’s not a real fighter. If you want a real fighter where everyone likes and has good competition in avoid this and get Soul Calibur II or DOA. Only Naruto fan-boys will like this game!
