Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles

'Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles, known as Naruto: Uzumaki Ninden (ナルト-うずまき忍伝, Naruto: Uzumaki Ninden, literally meaning:'' Naruto: Whirlpool Chronicles) in Japan, is a video game by Bandai Namco and is for the PlayStation 2.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) For starters, the graphics are extremely awful and look more like a amateur low-graphic PS2 game than a high-graphic game, other PS2 games like Naruto Ultimate Ninja and Ben 10 Protector of Earth had better graphics
 * 2) The story is extremely confusing and generic. It also goes all over the place at times and can sometimes feel like it came from a completely different game
 * 3) The English version removes Itachi, Kisame and Tsunade from the story and renames Rasengan to Power Strike.
 * 4) Very poor and loose controls.
 * 5) Only one playable character, Naruto. The other characters are mostly support-only characters.
 * 6) For some reason, despite the game taking place after the Chunin Exams, Gaara is a villain in this game when in reality, he should be a good guy because in the show he turned good.
 * 7) Awful combat that feels very wonky to pull off.
 * 8) Very repetitive gameplay.
 * 9) Enemies will also sometimes interrupt you while you are doing missions, which can become very annoying.
 * 10) You can't freely explore stages as they are mostly linear.
 * 11) Awful difficulty spikes.
 * 12) For some reason, in this game, you can't block while enemies and bosses can.
 * 13) For most of the game, you can just spam Rasengan over and over, which gets old really fast.
 * 14) The camera is inverted, which makes the game even harder.
 * 15) Most of the mechanics are outdated and haven't aged very well.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The voice acting is excellent in both Japanese and English versions.
 * 2) The sequel was a massive improvement, having more characters, better graphics, a longer story and more content
 * 3) The game can be fun at times.
 * 4) The upgrade system is fun.
 * 5) A decent amount of content and replay value.
 * 6) The Japanese version is much better.
 * 7) Awesome soundtrack that sounds like it came straight from the anime.
 * 8) At the time of it's release, it did stand out from the crowd from the other Naruto games, as most of them were mostly fighting games.
