 Bullmoose is great! October 4, 2008

On Sept 8th, I ordered this game for my Grandson's birthday which was on Sept. 25th. The game didn't arrive. All I had to do was inform Bullmoose and they quickly sent out another copy. I wasn't asked one question. There was absolutely NO hassle! They didn't think it would arrive on time, but it was only 2 days late!
Bullmoose is very professional and understands what public relations is all about. I will most certainly continue to do business with this company.
And, my Grandson LOVES the game!

This game is loads of FUN!!!!!!!!!! Story line is just like cartoon. Hard to put down. Also a great work out when you are doing regular attacks and special attacks. Can't wait till the next one comes out.
Great fun for Naruto fans and those that enjoy multiplayer June 26, 2008

It's great fun being able to play as characters from the Naruto series and this is a very solid game with no glitches that I have come across.
While this game doesn't have a ton of depth (I wish there were more playable characters in particular), I have a great time playing this with my 6 year old son and sometimes we even play as a family with my wife and 3 year old daughter as well.
If you're a fan of the Naruto series, have a Nintendo Wii, and have people you enjoy playing with, you will almost certainly enjoy this game.
I would have given this game a 4.5 based on the game alone, but rounded up to a 5 because of the added fun of being able to play with characters from a show my family really enjoys.
Great fun January 4, 2008

My son and I have a blast playing this game. I think it makes very good use of the wii controllers. Also the different characters have unique moves with strengths and weaknesses to make game play continuously interesting.
 Needs more training to become a good fighter January 1, 2008

The Naruto series of games will most likely evolve along the lines of the Dragon Ball series of game, which is a good thing. This fighter, while frantic and fun at times, is not quite a mature fighting game yet.
Pro's:
-Almost all of your favorite characters from the series.
-Many signature jutsu's present and with interesting animations.
-While simplified, combat and combo system are responsive and characters are evenly balanced.
Con's:
-Oversimplified controls leads to stale gameplay. What good is 20 characters if they all control the same? Only two attack buttons and a single button for jutsu's make each fighter feel the same.
-Story mode is simplified and rather dissapointing. If you liked the series, the story mode is a bad retelling of it, and if you're new to the series, the story mode won't give you any of the excitement the show does. At least the DBZ games make more effort to include the action of the show in the story mode.
-Jutsu's are dissapointing and add little strategy. Each character usually has one jutsu, accomplished by pressing one button, which connects in the same way, with an initial strike needing to land. No jutsu's used as a counter (Shikamaru or Naruto's rasengan would be ideal for this,) No long distance jutsu's (Temari and Tenten would be ideal for this,) no projectile jutsu's (Kankuro's poison needles? nope. Gaara's sand shuriken? nope.) Everybody needs to get in close and land their jutsu like a punch. Boring.
-No depth of game play.
Clash of Ninja Revolution is too oversimplified to be anything but a rental. The initial fun of pounding out simple combos and jutsu's and unlocking new characters dissapears once you realize that the characters all feel the same and have the same strategies: bang away with preset combo's till your meter is full then add a jutsu at the end of a combo to win. Even the special missions where you need to finish an oppenent with a specific move can be accomplished in one or two tries.
Overall, fighting game fans will find this to be cotton candy, not a nice juicy steak.
