I waited for this game for a long time. When it finally came out, I was mesmerized, then, reality set in....

Number one, the fighting gameplay is absolutely perfect. I wouldnt change a thing about it. Only to add more jutsu's for the characters to do. But the fighting is just breathtakingly amazing. But for those who dont know the story. I would not recommend this game. Theres no story in this game. And half the pleasure of Naruto is the story. Cyber Connect got the other half perfectly, cuz I just cant say enough how amazing the fighting is. But you just dont know whats going on and there isnt much variety in level design either. When your fighting key enemies, the backgrounds they use are totally wrong. They need to make more levels. The game does have an amazingly huge Konoha to play in, but you really cant do anything fun in the village. The game gets very repetitive. And everytime they have you do some kind of training, they always have run up a stupid tree. (Spoiler) Like when training for the Rasengan, they have you run up a damn tree. What the hell does that have to do with Rasengan. I really thought this game was going to be a new standard in all games when this came out. But it just missed alot of points. I just wished that I didnt waste money on buying the limited edition. This game just doesnt have any substance. You dont feel anything when your playing the game, but frustration. Because as you take on the story, which is split up into missions. Those missions last about less than 2 minutes. After your done with a mission. You have to wait for a long load time for the game to load up the huge village of Konoha again and again. I really hope people stop encouraging the developers. And have them make a new Naruto game with the same excellent fighting system. This game needs substance. They need to rework the whole story and then some.
