Just as with the Dragon Ball Z titles on the current-generation systems, Naruto Shippuden has had a bumpy ride of late. While every release has been enjoyable, very few of them have achieved the same level of acclaim the GameCube exclusive releases of yesterday took for granted. Unfortunately, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations isn’t the title to change those fortunes, but is remains an engrossing experience in its own right, and to the fans that’s perhaps all that matters.
New discounts for the Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm includes Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 ($16.53), Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Storm 3 Full Burst ($24.94), Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations ($24.94) and Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution ($24.99).

I am a huge Naruto fan. I’ve been watching the show since 2007 and love every bit of it. Unfortunately the Naruto video games do not touch the level of quality the anime displays. Sure, if you’re a Naruto fan, playing Ultimate Ninja 2 is going to be fun, but the games lack the depth and strategy other fighting games have. Even a party game like Smash Bros has more skill involved with the battle system than most Naruto games. The Clash of Ninja Revolution games do a decent job of building a Tekken or Street Fighter type of game but ultimately fall short because of balancing, shallow depth, and button mashing tendencies. In this article, were going to discuss my vision for a perfect Naruto game. This Perfect Naruto game will not only be accurate to the anime, but will also have deep fighting game mechanics that actually takes skill to master.
It seems like six months can't go past without another video game based upon the popular 'Naruto' anime being either announced or released. Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations, the third in Namco Bandai's Ninja Storm series, came out earlier this year. The title takes some of the better elements of the first two games and adds some original content of its own to provide an above-average anime-inspired video game fighting action experience.
