Which Game is the best to the consoles?

[Tasaio]

Which Naruto Game is the best? I have played those for the game boy, but is any ofthe games to gamecube or ps2 worth to import? To import games is expensive to me since i live in Sweden... :P. Gekitou Ninja Taisen 2 seems interesting... :).

So, which one of the games to gamecube and ps2 is the best one?

I think Naruto 2 for de Cube is worth an import, I've played it and I like it very much.
Search on the web for some reviews.

Same here. Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen II is awesome. Definetly worth buying.

[Kidd]

I've got all the naruto games except for gekitou ninja taisen 1 and the wonderswan games, and it's not a hard choice at all for me to say gekitou ninja taisen 2 is the best game of them. Actually that game might've been the best ~500kr (I'm in sweden too, and I don't remember what lik-sang.com took for it) I have ever spent.

[Hikiro]

I think that Ps2 would be nice but see here I live in Nova scotia Canada and Naruto for PS2 is not in Nova scotia, :?

[L2Mc]

Taisen 2 is easily the most worthwhile game to import at the moment. It has so many characters and 4 player battles... what more do you need?

[«Shîñôßì»]

yup. taisen two looks the best. (i love cellshade graphics)

[Shentar]

Yea, Gekitou Ninja Taisen 2 is definately the best right now.

[«Shîñôßì»]

Anyone disagree?

[Anbu Neji]

no disagree here.
1. GC graphics smash the ps2
2. Gekitou Ninja Taisen 2 is way beter then the ps2 games.
Im buying a GC right now just to play Gekitou Ninja Taisen 2! and i have it import it, hows that.

[Uzumaki Naruto]

no disagree here.

2. Gekitou Ninja Taisen 2 is way beter then the ps2 games.

I really disagree, wait until you see GT4 or MGS3.

:roll:

[Anbu Neji]

So, u check the stats for the ps2 vs the gamecube. The GC has a fater GPU and more pixels persecond and everything. Ps2 dosent compre against a GC.

[Uzumaki Naruto]

I really like the GC but it is not comparable with the PS2.

:roll:

[Anbu Neji]

Nope, ima have to totaly disagree there. here are stats i found.

.:Graphics prossor speed:.
xbox-233mhz
GC-202.5mhz
Ps2-147.45mhz
dreamcast-101.25mhz

.:Resolution in Games:.
xbox-640x480
GC-640x480
Ps2-320x240 for most games, sometimes 640x480
dreamcast-640x480

Overall

Xbox easily is the best hardware, and it shows in the games.

Game Cubes polygon performance is quite a bit lower than Xboxs, but it has most of the special effects Xbox has. Game Cubes graphics can compete with Xbox in some games.

Playstation 2s graphics dont even come close to Xbox or Game Cubes. It definitely shows in games, jagged edges, poor lighting if any, no realism to the graphics, or gameplay due to bad special features built into the graphics chip. The overall hardware is actually worse than Dreamcast! Graphics should be improving over time, not disproving! PS2 isn't a next generation system.

Dreamcast doesnt deliver to many more polygons/sec than PS2, but has way more special effects built in. It shows in games that Dreamcast is definitely better than PS2.

1. Xbox
2. Game Cube
3. Dreamcast
4. Playstation 2

for that site where i got the info:- http://glowystarman.tripod.com/locopollo/id12.html

[Uzumaki Naruto]

What about games?! I think PS2 is the best in games.


I know that the GC has Zelda & Mario but they are not comparable to FF & MGS.


:roll:

[Anbu Neji]

Yes, that is the only thing that Ps2 is ontop of, it wins out of game range. But if a game has been prought out for ps2 and GC like nfsu, it is beter graphics on GC.

[Uzumaki Naruto]

I think you admit now that PS2 is on top, and GC comes after it.

:roll:

[L2Mc]

This was about the best Naruto game on which system. Not what the best system is.

[Anbu Neji]

I got a little carried away there...but Taisen 2 for GC is by far the best naruto game on any console.
(P.S. no i dont agree, cuz ps2 has everything worse then a GC except the amount of games)

[SiloFAX]

Comparing hardware on consoles is pointless. Especially comparing hardware between xbox/ps2/gc. Sure there are differences in graphics between the consoles, but not enough to warrant one console better than the other just because of hardware.

PS2 is currently the most favoured console out at the moment. Xbox comes in at a very close second and GC is just somewhere third I dont know where - it is diffinetly the least favoured console to purchase out of the three at the moment.

The xbox is a very nice console though, it has a large range of mod chips and of course you can slot in any PC harddrive and have upto a 160gb harddrive in your xbox for playing backup games and installing import games. I spent 240 english pounds on my xbox and I have 94 eps of naruto installed on it and I just watch naruto on my 30 inch TV by using the xbox media player. I also have about 20 top range games installed on my xbox including jap games like Otogi 2 which just own.

PS2 is also a good console and just recently took a few steps up and it too now can have a harddrive installed and it has divx. The PS2 also has a very large range of modchips avalible for installation. The gamecube on the other hand has NO modchips from what Ive seen. There is no Harddrive support for the GC as there are no modchips :/.

The GC is nice for novice game players who dont take games too seriously. If you are serious about games and want to take everything to the next level and want to get into modding then ps2/xbox make the GC look very very poor.

That's hardly true. You've gotta look at all the different markets for that, really. Take a look at Japan. Xbox can only manage to sell a few hundred units a week in Japan, while Gamecube sells around 10,000.

The xbox is a very nice console though, it has a large range of mod chips and of course you can slot in any PC harddrive and have upto a 160gb harddrive in your xbox for playing backup games and installing import games.

And either modding your system or putting in a new hard drive will get you banned off Xbox Live, thus making it better that you leave it as it is.

The gamecube on the other hand has NO modchips from what Ive seen. There is no Harddrive support for the GC as there are no modchips :/.
Who needs modchips? A Gamecube functions just fine as it is, there's no purpose of adding a hard drive or anything. If you want a computer, just go out and buy a computer. If you want to play Japanese games, just install a territory switch and you're set to go. Not all mods come on a chip.

The GC is nice for novice game players who dont take games too seriously. If you are serious about games and want to take everything to the next level and want to get into modding then ps2/xbox make the GC look very very poor.
That's a very poorly thought out statement. You say the GC is for gamers who "don't take games too seriously," where your reasons for it are because you can't mod the system to do things other than play games. Hmmm, yep, we've got an einstein right here. If a person takes games seriously, they don't care what system they're on, they'll just get the games for the games, and not let system bias, which you definately have more than enough to go around, get in their way.


All the systems have some good games for them. PS2 is generally better for RPGs, Xbox for FPS and online games (unless you're wanting an online RPG, then I suppose you would have to choose PS2, or just go with a PC), and then Gamecube is the most diverse, having good games in a slew of genres, even some in which the other systems have none of. If someone were really serious about gaming, they would see this, and not go ranting on about how the GC sucks just because you can't give it a hard drive.

Ehh actually you wont get banned off xbox live for chipping or putting a HD in your xbox. Most mod chips can be turned on and off. And you can lock your HDD through apps downloadable onto your xbox. So you can actually go on xbox live with a mod and large HDD without little trouble.

And as for your statements well I disagree. I can load games without any loading time, because they are booted off the HDD. My xbox has 3 emulators on it capable of playing even neo geo roms like samurai showdown 1-5. You really need to go and see what can be done with a mod chip and HDD before you understand. And yes the GC has a nice collection of games - I didnt say otherwise. What did I state is that its lagging behind the xbox and ps2. And this is a fact!. When I see people putting up stats about hardware and comparison bwteen consoles it makes me laugh. All three consoles are from the same generation. And yes xbox has a bad market in japan, that is why the ps2 is probably the better choice for a console at present. But even with that said the xbox is still doing better than the GC and still has better games out for it.

And why do I say the GC is for gamers who dont take the games too seriously? because the GC has too many limits put on it. WHen I look at it I just see a box which can play a few good nintendo games. It doesnt have a large game base and it has no MOD compatibility. On a xbox I can Downlod applications to help switch between ntsc and pal for import games. I can remove the boarder on pal games through apps on my xbox. My games load instantly with no loading time. I can even ftp onto my xbox. I can play emulations on my xbox. I can even play playstation 1 discs on my xbox.

And btw I dont have a bias towards any consoles. I dont even own a modded ps2 but I still rate it as the best buy at the moment. Simply because you can get what you pay for out of it. But saying that I do feel disappointed in the gamecube. Its game base is not that huge and it has hardly any online compatability compared to the other consoles. Now I didnt say it sucked but in my view its not up to par.

[hasame]

the three systems are for different types of gamers. Xbox is generally a solo and sports games system. PS2 has all the RPGs you could want and a wide variety of genres to choose from, but again is generally a solo machine. Gamecube is meant to be played with four people. That's what smash bros., double dash, four swords, and pretty much the entire system is based on. If you are the type of person who enjoys games which require other people, ie fighting games, friendly racing games etc, then gamecube is the system for you. I am one of these people and I love my gamecube. Between my friends we have 1700 hours logged into smash bros. We've gone through 3 discs of the game. None of my other systems have even come close to the replay value of gamecube.

This is just my 2 cents on the topics, but I really believe each system is geared toward a different demographic of gamers. I agree that comparing statistics is silly, but I think dissing a machine because it has limited options is silly, too. If it does what you need it to do, play it.

[naraku_99]

who cares is the ps2 fighting game any good

[Zanza]

I heard the naruto fighting game on the ps2 got pretty good scores

[naraku_99]

thanks for the help

All the naruto games currently out are actually quite good. Even the GBA games are fun for what they are. Some would rate the second naruto game on the GC above the ps2 naruto. But really its not a fair comparison as the GC title is a sequel. I think when the second naruto game for ps2 is realeased next month that would be a fair comparison with the GC title. Even so it doesnt really matter because both GC and PS2 naruto games are good and are rated very highly for not only naruto fans but gamers who dont follow the manga. So if you can just get them all.

[naraku_99]

i have no gc thats why i was wondering cause i been thinking about importing it for a while

[Anbu Neji]

Ps2 looses major in hardware for money and also in hardware stats.

Hm who cares about hardware when it comes to buying consoles? Its all about the games. Why do you think people are still playing SNES games on a 32bit hand console (GBA). Also ps2 buyers are not really being ripped off, as the ps2 has decent DVD support which the the xbox has also but the GC does not. Which is probably why the GC is kinda cheap. Ontop of that the catalogue for the PS2 game wise is big. Goto lik-sang - they have 400+ jap games for sale there - and that is by no means the whole selection of games avalible for import.

When it comes to consoles it not the hardware that matters but how the games are being made which is most important.

[L2Mc]

It's not all about the games. PS2 became big because it was the cheapest DVD player in Japan, which helped it murder the Dreamcast which had some of the best games.

the ps2 didnt become big because it was a dvd console. alot of people used it for dvds but thats only because it was new and not many games were out.

The reason the PS2 was big so early on was because it was a sequel to the playstation and also because it was made by sony.

Sony playstation 1 murderd everything else that was its competitor. The ps1 sold better than the dreamcast - it sold better than the N64 and sega saturn. And it had no DVD support, why do you think this was? because of the games. It had games like tekken when it was first released and the game base for the PS1 just got bigger and better. That is why it owned. And obviously when you take this into consideration of course people would want to buy the ps2 considering how popular the playstation 1 was. DVD played a factor but dont be dumb - the ps2 was sure to sell well just because it was the next console from sony.

The PSX graphics and hardware sucked. But the games that came out for that console were just too good to be denied. And now the same thing is happening for the ps2. It had a slow start but at the moment if your into games you cant offord to not have one, The game base is just too big and there are too many decent games out for it.


Btw Im not a ps2 fan boy. Im just a gamer and these are the facts. Ive been into games my whole life since I was about 4 years old and Ive owned almost every game system since the late 1980 till now. And the sony franchise is the most succesful in all of gaming history. Sony didnt only bring good games to the console but they also put gaming on a wider commercial market. Instead of gaming being something only for nerds and kids it suddenly became something cool and hip and something that was deemed ok for adults to participate in aswell.

Just look back to when the PS was soon to reach the stores. There was a serious buzz. The buildup to the PS1 was something that hasnt been seen before. Now considering how many units the PS1 sold and how popular it was do you still think the ps2 only sold because it had dvd support? Hmm I dont think so. The ps2 sold on the reputation of its previous succesor.

And if no one can be assed to read that: I dont blame you.

[Micro[tN]]

i would say none =)...get an emulator instead..same graphics only diffrent is that u dont have to pay >_< still iwould payed i've been able to get the hands on an orginal naruto game ;)

[Anbu Neji]

What computer are you running to plan games on your emulator?

[Naruto-Kun]

is there any emulators at all for the ps2 or gamecube?? i know this is a long shot but i don't own a ps2 (not anymore) or a gamecube. I REALLY wanna try out those naruto games but in order to do that i would have to buy another system and get the proper hardware for me to play it which would be hard for me to find and i can't oder it over the internet due to lack of credit card. So the only hope for me is an emulator, which the chances seem quite low. My computer runs at 1 gig of ddr ram, radieon 9800 pro graphics card, andf althon 2600+ processor. Even though none of this might not matter if there isn't an emulator for the ps2 or gamecube, i'm just a naruto fan who wants to play one these games and this is my only chance, unless i do buy the system but i'm a pc game person so that would be a waste of money cause i'm not a console gamer. even though i do wanna play those games pretty badley, plz someone respone to my question, it would be mostly apprectiated. thx

[Anbu Neji]

Ive downloaded the first naruto game for ps2 before. I dont have the system atm to run it, but I think your system might just pull up ok. Search the net for ps2 emulators because i have seen and herd about ppl playing naruto hemet1 on emulator.

[Naruto-Kun]

Thanks anbu neji for you help, i have done that and downloaded a ps2 emulator but the one i have requires a dvd player in order for it to work. I have not yet tried it cause i would have to burn the games on a blank cd OR a blank dvd (not sure which) so until i do that i'll try it out and hope it works and i'll let you guys know. I also downloaded a gamecube emulator (link---> http://www.dolphin-emu.com/) they also provide screen shots on how it looks like but they said only a few games work for it, they had screen shots of naruto 2 so i'm guessing that works. HOWEVER i downloaded that game and attempted to play it and when it just starts up, nothing else happens. it freezes or doesn't load up. So i'm currently waiting for some help from the guys that helped me to get it so on further notice i'll give you guys the info when i do. I'm hoping it'll work *starts to pray*

[Naruto-Kun]

no luck as of yet, sigh...

[L2Mc]

no PS2 emulators are operational yet.

[Naruto-Kun]

theres a gamecube emulator though, it somewhat works. Its an emulator thats still in progress of being made though, the people behind working on it released a "demo" of it. I'm just having troubles with the naruto games though.

Narutimet Hero 2 is damn good and definitely worth getting if you are into naruto

yes its in Japanese but its a fighting games

It has ALL the major Jutsus plus original character specials and it has all the characters from the series plus one or two from the movie

Hehehe its pretty tactical too once you get into it....great beat em up

peace

[darksasuke]

naruto 2 for ps2 is the best and rocks

[sasuke3]

my favorite is gekitou ninja taisen for the cube..... Im waiting for the third secuel

[L2Mc]

I've decide I can't really say which game is the best. All of the naruto games are good in there own ways.

whats the point in buying naruto games if there in jap though.

[Sh4r|ng4n]

Nope, ima have to totaly disagree there. here are stats i found.

omfg i only registred here so i could let the others know that this is only true on paper and anywhere else.
trust me since i have all those consoles (yeah i know in a freak so what)
anywayz READ SOME MORE BEFORE YOU POST or ppl might actually belive you.

and by the way... those games on ps2 that are in 320x240 usualy have gigantic maps and the map has to be load very fast coz u move alot ( gta or driver like games)
and the only console capable of doin the same is xbox so dont compare dc and gc to ps2.
br00t power is good but not always best (amd vs intel)

and i have absolutley NO idea how can you say that dc has better graphics than ps2. me and my friend LOL'd for about an hour... and it kind of funny that you say it in such... confident way ;) omg lol
