Review: Naruto Uzumaki Chronicles PS2
Here’s a review of the game Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles I wrote for a local gaming site. I kinda gave up on the whole game reviewing gig when I realised that I don’t play nearly enough games to be trustworthy when writing about them. I know that doesn’t stop most people (free games, woot!), but most people suck. I care about these things dammit. And I doubt I’ll ever write another proper review like this again.
Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles
5.0 / 10
The game is worth a play for the diehard Naruto fan who wants further adventures of the characters,but proves an unrewarding experience for everyone else.
Ups: The game has an easy to use combat system and the ninja powers are fun to play with. The appearance of many familiar characters from the TV show gives a real sense of immersion in the Naruto series. The stats system gives a unique way of levelling up that rewards experimentation.
Downs: The random battles and the non-essential missions get repetitive and boring, and that isn’t helped by the bad enemy AI. The lack of explorable areas means the game gets quite old quickly, and there is very little replay value in the game.
