[ProtoJoe]

Got this from Naruto Fan

[greyfox]

i'll reserve my judgements till the game is releasing, because most of the times developers jus like to use the name of a successful franchize, but then they totally half ass the game mechanics

[Crixx_Creww]

ahhhhhhh this would beeee sooo sicko sweet!!



hope is more than the sound 4 that has been added.

New moves for everyone of course.

Kimimaru secret character would be cool.

Same game physics as 3, same game play with some new stuff of course.
Some bug fixes, such as camera angling and turning, blehh.


WEEEEEEEE sweet ass looking game.
Have all faith in nintendo in this one.

[ProtoJoe]

lol, to be honest, I had perfer the Naruto for PS2, the graphics was KICK ASS! Espiaclly the cut scenes for the supers... But i guess the fighting is a litter better in the GC, but the 2 vs 2 thing was just plain strange..

[Flip]

wicked pics dude...I hope the gameplay is good.

I played 3 and it was nice enough.

I hope this one offers more.

chakra iymc for this boy protojoe!

Awesome game on the Cube.

Been the best reason for owning it. Can't wait for this!

[TrinireturnofGamez]

  me and the clan are saving up for a gamecube , can someone score us a copy of this ? Smash bros and this are the reason , Nintendo iwmc !
  Gamecube would actually be the most powerful system of the 3 right now if it had more RAM and a hard drive,  it has a 64 bit 400 mhz IBM processor that would likely rape the Xbox's Pentium 3 , and a Radeon 8500 based gpu thats faster than the Xbox's Geforce 3 and supports more advanced shaders , twice the no. of shader ops per second .  but its 40mb of RAM vs Xbox's 64 mb , and lack of hard drive holds it back... plus lack of violent /bloody/perverted games for the older generation eg. GTA 3 .

[shivadee]

you gettin SSM now when you buy a GCN 

and it cyah rape XBOX even if wished it could. If it COULD it WOULD. me eh see a cross platform console game TOUCH XBOX power yet. GFX card and all that BS you does like to spew.

[Kaizen]

boy trini you pushin console war with the console king shivadee watch yourself lol XD

[Crixx_Creww]

once again iam forced to agree with trini on something.

I hate when that happens.

The cube is really an awesome awesome piece of hardware.

From the propreitary gdvd discs that they use, too the superb power in such a small system.

THe cube had the potential to surpass xbox hardware, but for pricing reasons, it did not.

Only reason the cube can afford to be 99 dollars plus games is to hold back a few punches.
not many but a few.

atleast itz still leagues ahead of the ps2

[shivadee]

Im not saying the cube no good. I love the damn thing. i have one myself. It has the fastest load times from a disc and some amazing hardware. But even with all that, even with the fact that the hardware may show it has the power to pass the XBOX, it.....never......happened. NEVER. And it isnt pricing problems.....its just Nintendo didnt market the system to the US taste IN THE US. Companies LEFT the console for LAST in development. There was poor PR, the system is the HARDEST of the 3 to encode or port. Imagine how frustrating that is.

You talk to a rep from a third party company about the Cube, they like "the who? who cares". Spinter Cell, Madden, Fifa, Lord of the Rings, Nightfire, Need for Speed....list goes on. Never was it at the XBOX level. The last 2 splinter cells for the GCN had the worst lighting of the 3 consoles. People dont BUY a GCN for third party developers, they buy it for FIRST party developers. And THAT folks is a GREAT thing, all be it very rare these days.

XBOX has to rely on third party developers. They new to the game and when that is the case, money talks. You hadda buy the competition, kiss REAL @ss to move up. If you notice plenty 3rd party companies going under to the big boys. Cube does not follow that path. Its marketing strategy is not based on graphics


But all in all. Friggin Mario, Samus, Zelda etc still dont speak in full sentences *just grunts* and the cut scenes are used with the same rendering, Bowser STILL looks blocky And, lets not forget for the last 3 consoles the cut scenes  involve this irritating movement of the character like their beathing or something. And we know, or SHOULD know this was Nintendo's INTENTION. they WANTED it like that. No talking etc etc. more to the imagination. Thats great!! i appreciate that, but the general population of UK and US/Canada sure as hell dont. Why you think so much ppl say they hate the new Rev Controler, friggin close minded ppl. When it come out, and slap dem accross the face with inovation they go shut up and pelt they @rse back onto nintendo side. Nintendo was focusing too much on Japanese marketing and what appeared to be copywrite protection for too long. (cartriges with the 64 and reversable, single sleep minidiscs with the GCN with a long @ss encription code).

 But that is not why we buy a GCN. We buy it for INNOVATION, not for graphics. If you always noticed, raw power isnt Nintendo's trump. look at the DS and Micro. Damn thing outselling the PSP and not dropping in sales. infact the DS sold MORE systems in the month of NINTENDOGS release than the PS2, GCN, XBOX, PSP and GBA friggin COMBINED. And that folks, was not because of graphical power, it was all innovation. CUbe never wanted to overpower the XBOX, if it DID the market strategy would be like that.

But yeah. I mean it hand PS2 its @ss easy......damn flimsy SOB console. it like paper 

and BOTTOM line, Naruto 4 looking HIGHLY CORK. I feel Baego juss ketch a glad when he see that.

[TriniXaeno]

damn right @ ketch a glad!

and good points re: console wars.

really amazing what nintendo could pull off in that small form factor and price tag, though the PS2 did earn kudos for their similarly amazing micro sized unit many moons after.

serious miniaturization iwmc.

The mini dvd discs were also pretty damn clever @ gamecube.

[ProtoJoe]

Just a little update: the release date is November 21st, 2005 (which is also almost exactly 1 year after release of the third installment of the popular series).

[speed demon]

well this is all i kno so far...
the sound five is in the game
plus kabuto yay and even better the water master kisame. yeah another akatsuki member.
itachi will be there of course.
kisame has his water technique as his super....kimimaro has the dance of seedling ferns as his super..
you can now run AND side step at the same time
and in the 3 on 3 fighting you can now switch like tekken tag kinda but ALOT faster , so fast that you can switch 3 times during a juggle...yea.

well im not sure but the cursed seal sasuke (all time jacka**) may be the last character to unlock...not sure. well thats enuff for me to buy it...but definitely not over soul calibur 3.
