   I enjoyed the first Ninja Council, I'll admit, as I wanted me a Naruto game I could play on the go but the repetitive gameplay & crappy music made things get a might boring at times. Sadly, it took me several weeks to finish the game. When I heard that a Ninja Council 2 was in development, I hoped they would address those issues and change things in the game. Boy, did they they change things in the game...they changed developers, the style of gameplay in the game, and the overall feel of the game. Instead of a mixture of platforming,exploration & fighting; Ninja Council focuses mainly on fighting. This time, you're able to play as Naruto, Sasuke, or Sakura as they attempt to pass the Chunin Exams at the Ninja Academy. Yet, while it's good to play as the three & the emphasis on fighting should be what this game is all about, Ninja Council 2 somehow falls short and just doesn't feel as solid a game as the first. Sure, it's a beauty to look at, the overall presentation is top-notch, and it's fun to play at times. It's just whomever you're controlling, it's the same ol' same ol'...make your way through a level, fight a boss, rinse and repeat. After awhile, it got extremely boring. As much as I love Naruto, I'd love to get a more satisfying game for my money(this makes the second Naruto game I've picked up that disappointed me). Picking up the latest issue of Shonen Jump; I read an article about Ninja Council 3 and, by all the screenshots & 411 on the game, it looks like it might be a good one. I pray that it is. If it fails to satisfy my Naruto fix, I wish they'd go a different direction with the next handheld Nintendo DS Naruto game. Maybe have a game that is somewhat like Naruto Ultimate Ninja yet made quite like Dragonball Z Supersonic Warriors, if you can imagine that. Best thing I can tell you about this game is use your own discretion in buying this game. What might not appeal to me, might be just right for you. We all have our own tastes in games and things. Sadly, this game didn't do much for me.

   What happened? The first game was almost completly a waste compared to this. The graphics are great, gameplay is challenging, and the music ISN'T painfull! Though at first the game may seem very confusing when figuring out the controls. Yet soon you'll find it to be very clear. The storyline is actually understandable and doesn't go that far out from the show. The only problem I have is the amount of characters. If they added more than this game would have gotten five stars.

   The music sucks and the game is super-easy! I beat it in 1 hour. It's a waste of money. The bosses are SO EASY!and,Naruto's sexy jutsu does nothing because none of the charcters you fight fall for it! Rock Lee's jutsus are sucicidial! Once he finishes one,he dies! Sakura is weak and lame! The enemies are losers! The 1st one is better. It's actually a challenge. Don't buy this if it costs more than 10 bucks,if you do,you get ripped off. Fun if you suck at video games,boring otherwise. Heed my warning...

   I remember watching the cartoons and the movies when I was younger. My son can't seem to put this game down. It's a pretty cool game!

   I bought this game for my 5 year old and he loves it. It is one of the few games that he can play without my assistance every 2 minutes. It is very reminiscent of the old school Ninja Turtle arcade game from my own youth so it is fun for both of us.

   If your gonna get any game based off the TMNT movie get this one. This game borrows a lot from the classic TMNT games such as Turtles in Time. It's a beat 'em up kind of game instead of a Prince of Persia crapfest that the console versions are. There's really not much else to say, just remember if you like the old school TMNT beat 'em ups you'll most likely love this one.

   Whether its a movie or a show, the Turles are the best on screen. This probably is the best and most family-friendly out of the live action TMNT movies. It's not too dark like part one, not too confusing like part 3, and live action, unlike the TMNT cartoon movie. The situations are cheesy, just like their pizza, and should go fine with parents. There are some fighting scenes and constumed monsters, but will roll over easy with the comical satire. Perfect if you love the Turtles, love green, love karate, love family/Disney movies, or love 90's culture.

   I love this movie! It's just a really fun movie that any turtle fan will like. Recommended.

   As a kid watching this I was totally in love and seeing it again brought back some great memories. Its a wonderful story and also I found it be one of my personal favorite action/adventures. Go Ninja Go!
