Coolie, I am currently playing Jeanne D'arc at the moment(a great PSP game that has cutscenes animated by Studio 4C), but I do plan on picking up Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Heroes for the PSP, as now console games that aren't on a seventh generation console have to be really good. However, Naruto is probably going to wait until I pick up Parrapapa(Spelled that Wrong): The Rapper remake for PSP, along with Monster Hunter Freedom 2.

I'll admit, I'm not a fan of Naruto. but whilst I was in blockbuster and noticed and employee stock this on the shelves....I couldn't resist.

IT really proves great as an over all fighter, and fun for someone who doesn't have too much background knowledge on the series. The gameplay is easy to pick up, and fun to master. The graphics were easy on the eyes and the character designs transferred well into the game. Really addictive and quite fun. I'm goign to go play it right now, as a matter of fact. I might jsut have to buy this in the near future~

I've played the game quite a bit and I ended up a bit disappointed with the sequal. There was a significant spike in the AI (especially with the Ultimate Road mode in the early levels) compared to the prequal that makes it not as easy to pick up as the previous game. It was to the point that I gave up on the main game which is a shame because I've been waiting for it to come out for a bit now.

This is exactly how I felt when I rented the game. I still enjoyed the game while it lasted, but I personally prefer the GC games a lot more.

Does it give you a choice to switch between Japanese and English if it's dubbed? I can't stand games that don't let you hear the Japanese actors!

I can tell I must be getting old because for the life of me I just can't remember the location of the buttons on the Playstation controller. Give me a Nintendo or Xbox controller and I can breeze through it, but the symbols just throw me way off. It's funny, I can type qwerty style on a keyboard easily, but can't remember where four buttons are on a controller which is essential to playing this game right...

There's no option for it I believe... it's all the English dub as far as I know.
