Just so you know I'll be writing the majority of this review assuming you owned or played the first ultimate ninja storm. and have a knowlege of the basics of the tv series.
So im gonna begin simply by listing all the changes to gameplay.
Good additions first-
-You can now chakra dash backwards (which is always nice)
-Your suports now have a type attached to to them. fill up your team gauge by using your supports in battle and
your support characters will aid you in various other actions. some aid in attacking and others defending (although the support type becomes customisable when you progress through the game)
-The roster is now rather large in comparison to the old game with most of the main characters from throughout the series being playable.
-Some characters can do air jutsus or alternate jutsus
-There is online now! for me this is one of the main improvements (although enjoyment does vary wildly... trust me)
-There are now ranged characters that use square attacks to combo instead of circle. this adds variety which is great.
-The annoying sandbox villiage in story is gone. and is replaced by fixed camera fairly linear paths I like this because it means theres far less fuss when going from place to place (although i guess this could be seen as bad if you reallly enjoyed the sandbox roaming in the last game)
Now for the bad additions-
-You can now do team ultimates.... in online mode this is game breaking. they are lightning fast and require little effort to pull off. guarding or subbing (if youre skilled) is the only way to avoid them... dodging is out of the question and if youre mid dodge when one is activted you WILL end up getting hit....

There is no other way of describing this game other than as simply incredible. I've been a fan of the Ultimate Ninja series for years and loved the first PS3 Storm game to bits but still had a couple of issues with it, namely the lack of online play and how heavily abridged the Naruto storyline was in it. Both these things are addressed in spectacular style with this sequel, and while there has been some scaling back in certain areas, the overall end product is much stronger than it's predecessor taken as a whole and that is a promise.
Putting you once again in the shoes of loudmouth, boiler-suited ninja in training Naruto Uzumaki(And at times other characters), Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 picks up more than two years after the events of Ultimate Ninja Storm 1 and adapts an enormous chunk of the Shippuden storyline as Naruto returns to Konoha village after travelling with master ninja Jiraiya and immediately finds himself faced with two daunting missions in the form of both finally finding his traitorous best friend Sasuke at last and finally going to war with the mysterious Akatsuki organisation, who finally begin their hunt of the "Jinchuriki", those who serve as hosts to the super powerful tailed beasts, and as Naruto himself is host to the Nine Tailed Fox, he's a primary target.
The story presented here is exceptionally strong, presented in multitudes of JRPG style 'exploration' in-game engine cutscenes together with the more detailed and dynamic combat engine charged cutscenes you'll remember from the first game(Complete with Quick Time Events back again), it leaves very little out as the story goes right through the initial Kazekage rescue arc right through to the "Pain" arc that has only just finished in the anime in Japan very recently....

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 is the sequel of Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 1 exclusively for the PS3. The first game was amazing but it lacked online play and had only a rooster of 25 characters. This game however changed that, online was added and the character rooster is almost doubled. The story mode is based on the big hit manga and anime series it takes place from manga volume 28-48 and from Naruto Shippuden episode 1 to about 170. The story in the game is a basic outline of the manga and anime. I found the story more entertaining in the new game than in the first, as I enjoyed the Shippuden story more than the first one. The story will take you about 15-20 hours to complete, but it does not end where with many other missons you can do afterwards. You also need to unlock 3 more characters after the game by earning lots of points.
The combat hasn't changed all that much from the first they have put in a few more combat moves what you can do with your team supporters. The combat is simple and easy to pick up however there are not many combos in the game compared to a game such as Street Fighter where that game uses a lot of combos. This has its ups aswell as it means the new comers to a fighting game can play this well. Also there is the substation jutsu move which is like a dodge but better you have to be skilled and time it well to use this, as you have to press the LT/L2 or RT/R2 buttons intime with the attack to dodge it and end up behind your opponent to attack. This makes the game much more fun and fast paced and takes skill to do it.
The online in this game has two options Player Match or Rank Match. Player Match is just for fun where you can battle your friends or someone random and there is no points or ranks awarded at the end.... Read more ›
