Einmal ein Ninja sein, von Baum zu Baum springen und dabei massenhaft Gegner platt machen war schon immer mein Traum. Durch Naruto Uzumaki Chronicles wurde der leider nicht wahr. Das Spiel ist wirklich nicht übel, aber wirklich empfehlen können wir es trotzdem nur echten Fans des Anime. Wer, so wie ich, nach mehr Abwechslung hungert, sollte auf Naruto: Rise of a Ninja warten.

Naruto: Uzamaki Chronicles is een matige vecht-game met weinig interessante en uitdagende quests en een goed maar niet bijzonder diepgaand vechtsysteem. De licentie wordt niet goed uitgewerkt, en de graphics zijn wel gelijkend, maar vooral generiek en vlak. Deze game is waarschijnlijk een poosje leuk voor de Naruto-fans, hoewel voor mij persoonlijk de verschrikkelijke Amerikaanse voice-acting alle lol daarvan verpeste. Nagesynchroniseerde anime mist de Japanse subtiliteit, stiltes en humor, en maakt het overdreven Hollywood-achtig. Is dit voor jou geen reden tot ergernis, of keek je toch al de Amerikaanse Naruto, dan is dat één tegenwerping minder om deze game te spelen die wel wat vermaak biedt, maar niet erg lang meegaat en zijn potentie absoluut niet vervult.

Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles isn't an aggressively bad game, but there's just something rather bland and generic feeling about a lot of it. It's just not interesting enough to warrant attention from anyone not already devoted to the Naruto franchise. It offers something a bit different from the past few Naruto games released in the US, but even devotees have seen Naruto games with better production values.

Upon defeating the final boss of the game you immediately get credits, leaving you completely unfulfilled. If you wait through the credits (and the load screen!) there’s a little bit of dialogue which rubs salt in your wounds by basically saying “Well, that’s that. Nothing has changed at all, and your victory amounts to nothing! Congrats!” Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles is just a big teaser for the show itself can be most aptly summed up by a line of dialogue Naruto says towards the beginning – “Let’s go kick some butts, and advertise at the same time.”

Naruto nous avait habitués à mieux, et ce n'est pas cet Uzumaki Chronicles qui fera l'unanimité, surtout auprès des fans. Voilà un jeu qui ressemble en résumé à une succession de quêtes annexes sans grand intérêt, à mille lieues de l'histoire originale. Les combats ne s'en sortent pas trop mal mais ne suffisent pas à rehausser le niveau global du soft.

Newcomers to the Naruto scene definitely won't get the most out of this though, and without at least a little knowledge of the subject matter some of the character relationships, dialogue and even parts of the basic premise might sail straight over your head. Still, if you do know your Kakashis from your Irukas, add a couple of points to the score and think about picking this up. For everyone else, games like Kingdom Hearts 2 and Ninja Gaiden offer far more substantial and rewarding adventures in a similar vein. Everyone's a winner, basically. Hurrah.

Nur wahre Kenner der Fernsehserie werden sich hier zurechtfinden, es wird praktisch nichts zur Geschichte Narutos erzählt. Die Grafik und die Effekte sind zwar fantasievoll und farben froh, aber alles in allem macht das Ganze einen tristen, allenfalls "befriedigenden" Eindruck.

Au final, on se retrouve donc devant un jeu d'action honnête, mais sans plus techniquement, qui parvient tout juste à rester défoulant. Cela suffira certainement aux fans souvent prêts à beaucoup pardonner, mais ceux qui ne s'étaient jamais vraiment intéressés au personnage n'y verront sans doute aucun véritable intérêt.
