Best. Naruto. Game. EVAR. (Yes with an A.)
PostedMay 23, 2009
The moment I popped this disc-shaped gift from heaven into my Playstation II, I knew I was in for something that would make my Playstation 2 glow with angelic light. I was right. This game has a large amount of unlockables. Probably the biggest amount of unlockables in Naruto history. The Graphics are amazing. They looked like that they were not jerked, but gently lifted out of a Manga comic. The shadows and character expressions give you that feeling that you are reading Manga. The music is great, and matches the feel of the cutscene or battle arena. It's even better because you can just play the song that you really like over and over again once you unlock it. The story line is easily the best of the Naruto UN series, because it follows all of the chapters, or arcs of the real Anime. Like the mist village and Zabuza, the Chunin exams, the search for Tsunade, and Sasuke's abduction. The controls are easy to memorize and straight forward. O is attack, X is jump, etc. The character roster has exceeded what I had ever expected from a Naruto game. Do you think 30 is good enough? Apparently not for Namco Bandai! They packed over 40 characters into this. Even Hanabi! You may or not even know her becuase she has only had a total of about 2 minutes on-screen. The minorest of minor characters. The challenge is great because the difficulties are selectable. Though, most battles can be beaten through frenzied button-mashing of the O button. I give it a perfect 10. This proves Naruto has landed safely into the 3D world of gaming.

Thrilling, exciting, mysterious, ... Naruto!

This game here by far, exceeded the first two Ultimate Ninjas, and I'm proud to say, that this game was a success. The challenge is well you pick, Normal/Easy, Medium/Average, Hard, and for those who love to pick a fight with some big people that have Ultimate for you. The graphics aer what I had anticipated, and are overwhelming. The special moves are what you call Ultimate Jutsus are incredibly cool however it dissappointed me when I figured out that you can only use one move other than the 2nd Ultimate Ninja whereas you can perfect the jutsu to it's maximum. I love the Japanese voiceover as the English dub is very irritating to listen to and makes the game so much harder to understand! That's what gives me a challenge, but they have it subbed for you, so don't worry. Controls are easy to use and the storyline was ok, considering it was from the Genin arc, to the Zabuza, Chunin exams I think they skipped, the Akatsuki arc, Tsunade arc, and finally the Sasuke retreival arc. Great game guys hope you enjoy it. Reccommended, The Serious Gamer - Th3 Gam3r.

OMG best Naruto Game Ever!!
PostedFebruary 17, 2009
All right so Naruto UN3 is the best naruto game out there. To start it has an okay story mode that's easy but let's you unlock most of the characters quickly. On the other hand the RPG mode is a little harder than the story mode but is MUCH harder to unlock everything, especially the ougis (ultimate special attacks). As far as the graphics are conserned they're better in the way that they're more "3D" than UN2. The special attacks, which I find to be the highlight of this gameare impressive. There are tons of specials to chose for a character ( if you can unlock them all) and they are really cool. To power up a special attack, you and your opponent must press a continuing string of inputs coming down the screen. This special system is different but fun and it takes some getting used to. The one semi-low point of this game is the sound. The sound is bad cuz the english VO is way off, so I would recommend the Japanese VO. The controls are super easy to master and they're the same as the first two games. Well all in all this game is the best naruto game money can buy andwith 42 characters and somany unlockables, it is worth every penny.

Best Game But...
onOctober 21, 2010
This is one of the best fighting games I've played. It has all the characters I like but sometimes the game freezes and the story mode is really easy I strongly recommend this game to someone that likes fighting games! When my friends and family come over they play with me and their fave game is this one! I wish i had the real cover and the book but i bought it used so i don't have it cuz they didn't had the used with the real cover! But overall it is a pretty good game!!!!
