Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations Review

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations Review

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations is a video game in the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja fighting game series, developed by CyberConnect2 and published by Namco Bandai Games. This game consists of players fighting each other or the computer when on the game. There are varies of different game modes to play on like single player for an example. This game is on these platforms: Xbox 360 and PS3.

I found this game to be really fun and enjoyable to play only when I was playing with a friend but when playing on my own I found it was very boring not as enjoyable to play.  The game is fun at first when playing on your own but after playing about 3 games it starts to become repetitive. By using the same attack abilities, same characters etc. I believe there is an online mode which allows players to play against other players this does make the game more fun and enjoyable to play.

The story of the game carries on from the other previous games in the series. The gameplay is very simple, all the player have to do is defeat the enemy which can be a random player if they are playing online or if in the story mode against bots controlled by the AI. The player can play as different characters that the game give them, these characters have different abilities, for example a character might have more health to be able to take more hits but might not be able to attack as fast as a character that cannot take as many hits.

The sounds in the game are very repetitive, when the play gets it there make the same sounds over and over again. There is some music playing in the menu section which suits the game very well it is not to calm and not to hard core just right. There are not very much sound effects in this game so that could be an improvement on this game by adding in more sound effects.

The use of graphics style in this game is cel-shading due to the dark out lines around the characters it could also be said to have exaggeration in it as well from the big colourful hair. The graphics in this game are quite childlike due to the colours and looking very cartoon like. There is not very much detail on the environment and the characters which is a sham because it is a good game to play and if there were a lot more effort put into making this game it would be a very popular game to play.

The replay ability for this game is that players can play online with friends or random players, there is a choice of choosing different characters to play with and there is getting the achievements from playing in the different game modes. Apart for that there is not really any more to make the players come back and play the game. It does get boring after a while, but if playing with friends it can be more fun and enjoyable.


Overall this game is fun to play if playing with friends but not on own. The PROS of this game are when playing with friends its fun to play and if the player is 12 and under there will enjoy it too due to the exaggeration of the hair and the cartoon feel. The CONS there is not much in the game to keep the players interested. There is not much sound effects in the game and the once that are in the game are very repetitive. Overall I’m going to give this game a 6/10.
