Never got into any of the anime but picked this one up based on the recommendation of my local Gamestop manager. Played it briefly last night and I like the look and feel of this game so far. Never played the first two (assuming there's 2 previous ones since this one is 3) so I'm curious how it compares.

It is pretty decent game. I liked the last one better. This one doesnt have nearly as many button input sequences as the last one which is what makes these games cool in my opinion. I also dont like how there is so much talking and cut scenes. I swear there is a string of cut scenes after the 2nd Kyubi fight that goes for about 20+ minutes <.< they could have done a lot more with the game too in my opinion. There are battles that were skipped and a lot of them were played down and not as epic as they should have been due to the lack of the input sequences. i like their selection of characters but feel that they lied about how many usable characters there are. I like that you can play as all of the jinchuriki and their bujji (spelling?) but i feel that having 4 Narutos each with multiple alternate costumes is cheating a bit to get to their total number of characters. I can see young naruto and current naruto as separate characters but thats it. Its an ok game though. I picked it up because the last one was good and i wasnt able to rent it to test out so it was a bit of a gamble but its alright.

I definitely agree about the length of the cut scenes and dialog. I just finished the 2nd chapter and for the most part it felt I was just watching a show. The gameplay mechanics aren't as complex as some fighting games but then again I haven't really dug into the controls. I'm actually enjoying this game though and might pick up the first 2.

havent played the first one but the 2nd is deffinitly worth it. There isnt much to the controls either, not too many combos
