Naruto Shippuden: Legends: Akatsuki Rising Review

I thought Naruto Shippuden Legends Akatsuki Rising was great. I was happy that it's a button mashing third person brawler, that contains combat and RPG elements like Uzamaki Chronicles, rather than another fighting game. The best part of the game for me was taking control of my favorite character, Naruto with Lee and Neji as my supports in the Kazekage Retrieval story arc. I played the Mission, Survival and Akatsuki Mode as Kisame and I liked those too, but I still liked the main story more. There is a good amount of playable characters that include Naruto, Sakura, Kakashi, Shikamaru, Tenten, Lee, Neji, Guy, Gaara, Kankuro, Temari, Itachi, Kisame, Deidra, Sasori, Sai and Sasuke. The graphics in AR were pretty top notch for the PSP and the voice overs/music were equally as good. Overall, There's still some improvements to be done with the camera angles and such, but I'd give Naruto Shippuden Legends Akatsuki Rising an 8/10. -NARUTONY79
