Hope u guys enjoy reading my review and continue 2 enjoy my content. Today Theis review will be on one of my favourite games:
Naruto Shippuuden Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX 2



Storyline

Naruto Shippuuden is the continuation of the original animated TV series Naruto.The story revolves around an older and slightly more matured Uzumaki Naruto and his quest to save his friend Uchiha Sasuke from the grips of the snake-like Shinobi, Orochimaru. After 2 and a half years Naruto finally returns to his village of Konoha, and sets about putting his ambitions to work, though it will not be easy, as He has amassed a few (more dangerous) enemies, in the likes of the shinobi organization; Akatsuki.



Two and a half years have passed, and a 15 years old Naruto returns to the Leaf Village. He's taller and has a new outfit, but still retains his prankster nature and hot- headedness. To the dismay of many, some of Jiraiya's pervertedness seems to have rubbed off on Naruto as well. Time has passed for many of Naruto's friends as well, they have advanced from Genin to Chunin and some even became Jonin.





In fact, Naruto is the only one who is still a Genin from his graduating class way back from the Ninja Academy. But there is little time for reunions. Akatsuki is on the move and continue to pursue their goal to capture all nine tailed demons, Naruto's own Kyuubi included. Their latest target, Gaara of the Sand.

Here are some of the characters' new looks from the Naruto manga.








Aswell as our favourite characters from the series we are brought with new ones to such as a character called Sai.

Sai



Personality

Sai has no emotions, Sai meets with hardship when he first joins Team 7. He initially tries to seem more caring by smiling, though his teammates come to dislike it due to his obvious insincerity. His repeated questioning of whether or not Naruto has a penis does little to help his standing, and only makes it more difficult for the two to get along. After spending more time with his team and seeing the bonds Naruto has formed with others, Sai begins to break out of his emotionless shell. Interested in the concept of bonds, and remembering that he once had a bond with his brother, Sai begins trying to create his own bonds. In doing so, Sai is able to start giving genuine, albeit awkward, smiles, and his team finds it easier to get along with him.



In his quest to acquire bonds with others, Sai develops the habit of giving people pet names, something that a book informs him helps to make friends. His initial attempts at forming bonds are marred by his naming people as he sees them, such as calling Sakura a "hag" or calling "fat". Upon finding that people dislike hearing how they really look, Sai begins saying the opposite of how he sees them, such as calling Ino "beautiful". With his pet names now finding success in forming bonds, Sai has since begun to try and be helpful to others. When Naruto's arm is left in a sling and he is unable to eat by himself, Sai forces large amounts of ramen into his mouth to feed him. Because Naruto wanted Sakura to be the one to feed him, Sai's actions do little to be helpful to Naruto.

Sai is a talented artist, and claims to have drawn thousands of pictures. Despite the magnitude of pictures he has drawn, he has told Sakura that he has never given one of his works a name, his lack of emotion making it impossible for him to give something a title.

Abilities

Sai's drawing ability is also the source of his jutsu. By drawing things with a brush on his scroll he is able to bring his creations to life, giving them an increased size and the ability to move. His Super Beasts Imitation Picture allows him to create birds that he can use for flight and lion-like creatures that he can use for attack. Likewise, by creating an Ink Clone of himself, he can perform a reconnaissance of an area without actually endangering himself. Sai can also transform words he writes on his scroll into small animals that seek out their target and revert back to words upon arriving, giving Sai an easy way to communicate. Kakashi refers to him as a long range specialist, though he can hold his own at close range using a short sword he carries on his back.

Must Watch Video

Here you can see how sai acts towards his teammates

Introduction
Naruto Shippuuden Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX 2 is the second Naruto Shippuuden Game released for wii. This game takes place after the time skip in the naruto series, and takes place during the peroid with fighting with sasori and also trying 2 resue saskue. This game is only avaible in japan but i think will conme out in USA during end of 2008 and 2009.


Naruto Shippuuden Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX 2
contains 30 characters in total.



The game features all the characters from the previous game.

Shippuden Saskue

Thats rite guys the most anicipated fighter of the year is included in this game.
For the first time players will be able 2 use Saskue eqquiped with his sword and his new chiori abilties.



The game also featire new characters like Yamato,Sai,Asuma,Trueform Sasori and
timeskip (TS) versions of most of the teams make a appearance. Besides the shippuden chacarters
it also conatins old Naruto and Saskue beforethe timeskip so players can pull of there
favourite moves such as saskue lion combo.

Game Modes



Story Mode

In Story Mode players follow through the Shippuden Storyone. In story players will have to use the newly formed team kakashi and use there abilties to take on the notorious Akutsu members and save there long lost comrad, their friend the Saskue. Story mode is very close to the anime which is excellents since in most anime games the game differes from the anime.



Story mode is very chalenging 4 players since at the start players will use normal team kakashi fighting the akutsu members, however due to the long strain battle will have 2 learn new characters move set since some of the team will be recovring from the battle. This means players will have 2 adapt to each unquie fighters fighting type e.g Sai brings paint images 2 life so unlike using naruto which is a close range fighter, players using sai will have 2 fight long range.



Mission Mode

In this mode players go through various missions assigned to them by the 5th Hokage. These missions normally involes defeating there oppenent in various situations or limit placed on them e.g Defeat your oppenent withought loosing damage.



As well as completing missions assigned by the hokage players can also redoo old missions they succesfuly completed in story mode. This is fun since players can redue there favourite story mode events.

Showdown Brawl Mode
Showdown Brawl Mode is basiclaly vs mode. In this mode there are various types of fight players can choose from.

Single Brawl Mode


Vs Computer: In this mode players simply select there fighter tehy wish 2 be, and also select the person they wish 2 battle. Afterwards they simply fight until 1 is the winner.

Score Attack: In score mode players go through multiple fights trying 2 get the hightest battle score so they can be at the top of the ranking table.

Time Attack: In time Attack mode players try 2 defeat all characters within the game in the quickest possible time. The 1 with the quickest score will be at the top of the leader ranking. This mode sounds easy but can prove 2 be hard since depending on the cpu difficulty the battels can drag out. besides this playesr will find it challenging fighting multiple battle stryles the cpu uses. I think this mode is one of the funnest in the game and can really improve one battle skils.



Survival Mode: Survival mode put players agianst endless oppenents unitl the player dies and looses all health. This is probaly one of the most challenging modes in the game since after each battle your health doesnt recover so players will have 2 fight wisley.

Multiplayer Brawl Mode


Player Vs Player : In this mode you and your friend can go out in an all intense battle to see who the better fighter is in the game.

Co-Op Score Attack: Just like in single score attact you battle to get the highest score to be top of the leader board but instead yor have your friend to help you.

Co-OpTime Attack: In this mode you and you friend work together trying 2 punish off there oppenents as quickly as possible.

Co-Op Survival ModeL Here you and your friend keep battleling trying not too loose. Unlike playing alone it should be much easier now since your friend is there 2 help.



Watch Mode

In watch mode players can relax and inseatd watch the cpu battle in a intense round all out action. This is really fun 2 watch since you can neva predict who will win, also i like betting with my friends 4 moeny on who will win looool.



Training Mode

In trainng mode players go through multiple steps learing how to play the game. For players whom played the usa naruto game" Naruto Clash of Ninja Revolution" you wont have to do this since the buttons are very similar however its stil good 2 learn so understand all aspects of the game.

Omake Mode

Omake mode is the game gallery mode. Here players can view unlockable they gathered from completing various missions and story mode events. These unlockable inlcude new gameplay soundtracks and chaacter costumes.

4 Player Action

Thats right people, like the previous naruto game 4 wii this 1 will also feature 4 player action.





4 player battling make gameplay crazy fun, where in the match anything is possible. Players can either pit themsleves all against all, or if prefered players can unite and work on teams trying 2 defeat there oppenents.

The below video will now show 4 player fury action

New Features
Unlike the previous naruto ex game and the usa naruto game, Naruto EX 2 make great unqiue fuctions of using both the wiimote and numchuk.



Using the wiimote players can now perform somthing called the seal system.

Seal System
The seal system allows naruto fans to pefrom hand sign jutsu to powerup there player and give them various stat abbilties. By simply moving the wiimote and numchuk in a certain direction players will activate the seal system.

The following video will show the seal sysetm.



Traps Stages

Another new feature the game has is the stages people fight in. Besides being larger and more stages, the stages also have traps that are triggered in battle to make fighting even harder. Players will now also have the arean they battle in hurting them aswel as the opeenint 2 deal with. I personaly think this is pretty cool.



Special Moves

The special moves in this game is excellent and feature cutscenes which even rival the PS2 naruto series. The special moves are more in depth and also feature a larger movelist then the previous naruto game.

As soo can see from the below pic Sasori is peforming hos signature hokage puppet jutsu.




Besides this usa players will be gelous because yes thats right people kakashi is on this game with his new and improved MARIGON SHARRIGGAN

The following video shows all special within the game, i recomend you must watch the video.



General Gameplay

I think gameplay for this game is simply stunning. Players will notice how easily gameply flows and how the feature of the game make this one of the ebst fighting games avaiable for wii.



Sound

The developers of the game didnt incldue famous soundtracks from the series and insetad made there own soundtrack. Even tho famous anime sounds are not in this the soundtrack is stil really good and flows with fighting.

Controls



Players have a choice of controsl when playing this game. They can either use the Wiimote and Numchuck combinations, or for players who prefer to just sit down and play they can use the clasic controler or gamecube remote.

Each control is good howver i think its more fun using the wiimote combination since players can react there favoruite moves from the anime when playing. It also makes it fun watching your friend make a fool out of themselves jumping while playing lol.
Graphics



This game is a 2D/3D fighter. The makers of this game did an excellent job. The fighters look just like they do as if watching the cartoon.Players will have no problems when playing this game and would be very pleased with the graphics.

Fun Factor

For Fun Factor il give it a 8.5 out of 10

With intense 4 player action, new seal sysyem and actually peforming our favourite moves from the seriees youc ant get much better then this.

Improvements to the Game

Only downfall to this great fighter is that it has no ninetndo wifi connection within it. I find this to be a real shame since if this was made online teh game would be even better since we could challenge players around the world.

End Verdict



In a whole this is a very great game. If in future the developers can include soundtracks from the cartoon and also turn the game into a wifi online game then this would be perfect. ts for this reason i give this a 8.5 out of 10.

Hope you enjoyed my review, and enjoy reading my future ones. If it wasnt for you wiipals i wouldnt be here today so thanks.

Nice Long Review! Loved the pictures! Hit the most points like characters and plot of the game. I did get one of the old game cube versions of Naruto. Clash of the Ninja I think. I might be getting this one but I don't know yet. It's cool how you can use the gamecube controller or classic! Thats pretty sweet just like brawl.
