Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 for PS3/360 @ $34.99

[Azuvidexus]

Just noticed that Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, normally @ over $55, is currently @ $34.99 (Ships from and sold by Amazon.com.)

http://www.amazon.com/Naruto-Ultimate-Ninja-Storm-Xbox-360/dp/B003BE6OZM/​

It's strange because this is directly sold by Amazon, the game is new, it doesn't seem to be a "deal" (at least not announced) and a couple of days ago it was almost at full price.

Yes I am also wondering if I should wait. I played the demo yesterday and decided i want this game even though I never watched Naruto.

 

[Cheska19]

Urrg, sooo on the fence about this, I've never played the first game or even watched the anime/read the manga but the game looks good.

 

[skycat561]

its a great game... bought it last month for PS3. might even get it for 360 now...or ill wait for 20

 

[elessar123]

I'm normally anti-Naruto, but I did try the demo after seeing it in stores, and it's a pretty good game.... Even I'm tempted.

 

[spike32]

Thank god I held off buying this game. AMAZING price.

 

[DarkSageRK]

The game is so fun. FML for buying it day 1 though. Didn't think it would drop this fast. The first one didn't at all.

 

[Japakneez]

Picked it up. Never watched or played naruto before. Videos of this game in action have sparked my interest.


This game seems to have half the story. Is there a game out there with the other half? I don't quite have the time to watch the series but would like to see why it is so popular.

Ubi made a couple of 360 games that were pretty good summaries of the story from what I heard (never watched the show either).

I played the first one and it was really great for a licensed game. Basically, the story seems kinda weak though as its just soap opera melodrama that takes a big hit by shortening it.

This is a wonderful game.

Defiantly jump on it if you've been waiting a lot of fun even if you don't like the anime.

Yea the first half of the story is in naruto ultimate ninja storm 1 and naruto ultimate ninja storm 2 goes really far, all the way to the pain arc which is really really far in the manga.
but in this game, the characters are grown up by 2 years so theyre way cooler.

great price, wont regret it

 

[Japakneez]

Cool. Thanks for the input everyone. I'm looking forward to the game

 

[VaRIABLE SoUL]

I bit on this earlier today. The Ubi versions are fun but this one takes the cake in graphics and fighting engine IMO.

 

[FQRizzo]

I jumped on this one. I enjoy the anime, BTW.

 

[greyzieoriental]

Not sure which system I want it for. I have the original on PS3 but my 360 gets more game time. I hate splitting sequels on different systems.

Check this out, honestly I do not see the difference and picked up PS3 because I prefer the controller for fighting games.

 

[RussellC]

Nice deal. Ordered it last night. Got it for $19.99 after $15 credit from AC Brotherhood.

 

[youngavatar]

the only game i paid full price and it was worth it....great single player and mulitiplayer content definitely worth picking up.

 

[Nintendokid54]

I loved Broken Bond and Rise of the Ninja. I'd pick this up in a heartbeat if I had the first one to play.

Honestly I don't know why you wouldn't, it's not like you won't understand what's going on.

Put some spoiler tags on that before you ruin the story for people.

If you finished Broken Bond, then you are far enough to start Storm 2 without missing out on anything.
