Best Naruto Game of the series thus far!

I played four Naruto games from the Gamecube and the Playstation II thus far, (Naruto Clash of Ninja I & II and Ultimate Ninja II & III) and the best one is this one, Naruto Ultimate Ninja III. The game is updated with more characters (including all the hokages, including Yondaime) which can be unlocked throughout playing the Storyline of the game. There are over forty characters that you can play as, and so many more things to do. The environment you play in is more interactive, but some of the playing fields from NUNII are slightly different, but otherwise still awesome. I really enjoyed this game, which is more challenging than the last one in the series. If you are new to Naruto games in particular and own a PSII, than definitely try this game.

Can't play it!

The third installment for the Ultimate Ninja series games for the PS2 console is the best made so far. I have tons of fun playing this game with friends at school and at home. I especially love the cut-scenes for the ultimate jutsus they're the best. Also its very fast game play so if you like fast game play with a lot of action going on at the same time with various items being used while fighting your opponent and ultimately if your a Naruto fan I definitely recommend you get this game A.S.A.P.!

When I first ordered this game (4 weeks ago) I was ectastic I could finally play it. It got here today. I popped it in the PS2 and BAM!

'Please insert a playstation or playstation 2 game'

now, I retried it, and retried it again, nothing happened. Until I read this was a NTSC U/C game made specifically for that type of playstation 2. Mine is PAL. I was very dissapointed, don't get me wrong, the gameplay looks fantastic - But people outside North America (EG; Australia) I suggest you don't get this game. I suggest when ordering games from this site check your ps2/xbox or whatever you got to see what make it is before buying the game you want. I was very dissapointed because Amazon didn't warn me that it was a different region and asked if I still wanted to order it.

2/5 stars overall, sorry.

Ultimate fun for a fan

This was my first time at playing the Ultimate Ninja series. It played without any issues on my 60gig PS3. Being new to the series, I was at first a little confused about the menu layout (Hero's history, Ultimate Contest, Vs Dual, etc) and how they connected to one another. After a few hours of playing, I finally got a hang of the concept and character fighting styles.
If you are a Naruto Fan, this is a must have since it allows you to play many of the characters. You also have the option of selecting different Jutsu as you gain levels.
I really enyoyed it as I wait for the release of Ultimate Ninja Storm for the PS3.

The first Naruto game I've ever played happens to be the best Naruto game I've ever played

It was a toss-up between this and the Naruto game for the X-Box 360, so I went with this one, most because this was the 3rd game in a much beloved fighting game series vs a new sandbox game with hit or miss results. I dug this game, not only because I always got a kick out of looking at the over the top ougis/specials on youtube, but simply because of the enormous variety of characters for you to choose from and multiple gameplay options, from the mini sandbox-type quest game (only 1 real area to explore plus several smaller places familiar to Naruto fans) to the story mode to the ever popular vs mode, plus a couple cute little mini-games for you to play (there are only 3 though and it's more fun to play with a friend) and a store where you can unlock music, movies, screencaps from the show, statues, and a whole lot more.

I liked this game a lot, though the controls will take some getting used to. Even if you're not a Naruto fan, it's still a fun fighting game to play with your friends or even alone for all you single player gamers, though I have to admit the appeal of this game skyrockets for fans who'll get a kick out of all the extras and nods from the series and have a friend to reenact famous scenes and fights from the show.

I highly recommend this game.

The best Naruto game for the PS2 so far

First of all let me say that this is the best Naruto game for the PS2, yet. The gameplay is similar to the previous 2 but it is finely tuned and has a few nice little additions that make it really fun (for example, if the Rasengan and the Chidori clash at the same time then you get into a power struggle where both players should press buttons to win).

The Hero's Story Mode was pretty good, not great, but good.

Pros:
1. Incredible Roster of Characters
2. Solid Gameplay
3. Nice Soundtrack (btw there is an option for the Japanese voice actors)
4. The Ultimate Contest Mode, which is a new story arc (called Konoha Genin vs Jonin) only for the game :)

Cons:
1.Not THAT much of an improvement from Ultimate Ninja 2.
2.Hardcore Gamers might not be attracted by the lack of depth in the figthing system.
3.Short

Anyway I had a lot of fun playing this game, really enjoyed the Ultimate Contest mode and playing the new characters.

Overall, I give this 4 stars.

This is a great game. After playing both Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 1 and 2, this game greatly surpasses them both. The characters are really realistic, the scenery is amazingly accurate to the Naruto world, and the gaming experience is one of the best I have ever had. There is so much content and lots of storylines that can be played. I've yet to try them all because I just finished one of them-it took approximately 6 hours, which would have been enough time to pass all of the previous Naruto game. This game is a definite must buy:it is completely worth it. especially for those that love anything and everything Naruto. As for those that don't know much about it, you should try it because it is simply a great game-full of surprises!

I was expeting better

The quality of this game would depend on what you are looking for to begin with. The graphics are great, and you can play as more than thirty characters in VS mode. Unfortunately, there isn't much else to do besides fight one on one battles and do tedious missions that usually involve running across the tiny village to speak with one person, and then doing a quick battle that requires no real effort. There isn't really a storyline besides the contest that Tsunade announces. She asks you to collect a bunch of crystals for points, most of which can be picked up off the ground or achieved by beating the same people over and over again. I finished this part of the game in a couple hours. Then there is the Hero's History mode, where you are supposed to fight all of the great battles up until Sasuke disappears. They actually skipped over a lot until the chase with Shikamaru's team. Even then, it's not all that difficult. I was expecting to be slaughtered by Haku alone, and I just kept kicking him until he died!
