Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 3

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 3, known in Japan as Naruto: Narutimate Hero 3 (ナルト- ナルティメットヒーロー3, Naruto: Narutimetto Hīrō 3), is the third installment of the fighting game series Naruto: Ultimate Ninja released for the PlayStation 2. Developed by CyberConnect2 and published by Bandai Namco. It was released on December 22, 2005.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) Awesome controls.
 * 2) Lots of characters. It has 42 characters in total, which was the largest character roster upon release and is the third largest character roster in the history of the Ultimate Ninja series.
 * 3) Super cool Jutsus.
 * 4) Powerful attacks.
 * 5) Great plot.
 * 6) Excellent music.
 * 7) Sound effects are just great.
 * 8) It has UNT Naruto & Second State Sasuke.
 * 9) Excellent FMVs.
 * 10) Wonderful cel-shaded graphics.
 * 11) Great voice acting from the cast of Naruto.
 * 12) You play as Naruto in Master Road mode.
 * 13) There is a decent amount of depth in the gameplay.
 * 14) * Early matches are based around chakra management and escaping combos, which can drain your meter fast.
 * 15) * You can do tons of combos with both melee and jutsu, used with abilities present in the series.
 * 16) * Jutsu canceling opens up to some great combos.
 * 17) The Ultimate Jutsu are just cool. They were in the previous game but expanded upon in this one.
 * 18) You have the ability to use other character's normal jutsu (not their Ultimate Jutsus) when you play as them in the versus mode.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) While the FMV graphics are pretty great, the in-game graphics aren't too good, it consists of a lot of muddy textures and incomplete character models, (incomplete meaning alot of times their faces, or other parts of their bodies, aren't always there).
 * 2) While the story that follows the anime and manga is pretty good, the story that they created for the game isn't too interesting.
 * 3) It can be really hard and frustrating to pull off a substitution jutsu because your timing on the button has to be absolutely perfect and even then sometimes it doesn't work.
