@spiderman52 no i think they are just BAD games...IGN has pretty much been giving the same low scores. There is no conspiracy. People always say 'oh but it's just one persons opinion' and such, but if you are clever you can recognize a sh*t game rather quickly.

I don't play COD games yet i believe MW3 could have been a little bit less than a 9 since everyone says it is 'same again' but I also believe it deserves it's high score because the game is made WELL.

ok i agree about the story but for some reason franchises like resident evil, ninja giaden, etc. are getting bad scores. i mean naruto should get at least an 8 since the story is no longer free roam. i think its either games are becoming dull or reviewers are getting paid to trash those games. i mean cod is good but mw3 felt like the same thing just with new guns but somehow gets a 9 every year? or maybe i just got bored of first person shooters who knows.

@yemsols
Well, if it wasn't a battle of attrition, then either one of the contenders is simply a fledgling at this game.

I doubt that more experienced players would be able to defeat each other very quickly.

@Gelugon_baat: yes Im implying that they do NOT lead to the same end i.e "force the enemy to expend all their tricks before a victory can be achieved". Opponents can very well be defeated even before they expend their tricks which is why I said it requires thinking outside the box during battle. So its not always a battle of attrition.They are many different ways to play and this usually comes from utilizing the differences in each characters move set, jutsus, and other attributes they have. Hence my complaint.

@yemsols
One of the main criticisms about this game is that the player, human or otherwise, needs to exhaust the other's bag of tricks, namely the substitutions (2:30), before the other can replenish it; that bit about limited fighting styles is just an elaboration of the consequences of this game design.

I suppose that there may be other styles, especially online, but can you tell me if they don't lead to the same end anyway, e.g. force the enemy to expend all their tricks before a victory can be achieved?

Oh sure, it's all very shinobi-like thematically, but these are essentially battles of attrition - and not everyone likes battle of attrition (especially not fans of shonen anime/manga).

In other words, I am not convinced by your argument. In fact, I am having an impression that you just focus on what you don't like to hear from this review.

The Naruto franchise sure is easy to make video games for.

@Gelugon_baat u mad bro? Ok let me elaborate. When you play this game against com or noobs, you end up creating a somewhat standard fighting style which this reviewer mentions but there's actually a rich variety of styles. When you play against humans online or maybe repeatedly play a friend you end up discovering many other fighting styles because then youre forced to think outside the box and outsmart your opponent. The reviewers comment is "almost" like saying in street fighter all you do is block, punch & kick so I conclude the reviewer must've been in that box while conducting this review. Maybe an exaggeration but hopefully you see my point and thus my initial comment. Cheers. *Like a Boss pose*

This review is greatly understandable since this game is super predictable.

This review was pretty forgiving, actually. Glad he noticed the piss-poor story mode tho.

@Darnasian There truly isn't much of a big point to it, which is why I was surprised anyone responded to it, though I can see how some may have misunderstood what I meant.

It was a very general comment about how the news was slow since the headline wasn't big gaming news or some AAA title.

@Darnasian "your brain is moving slow" "Grow up and stop being a troll!"

Yes, that sounds like a very well thought out argument.

Back to my point, any non AAA title making headline news shows that the news is slow. Hence a bigger game would take priority and any time there isn't one in the headlines, then the news is slow.
