Well made video and this is why emulation is the answer to preserving the older games. I loved my 360 but I won't pretend that the system was reliable. Very good video and worth the watch
Thank you so much, you nailed it on the head. This was exactly what I was trying to get across -- Rise of a Ninja and The Broken Bond are REALLY cool, special games that are different from all the other Naruto games. It's just by chance that I even found out about them -- imagine all the other people who are never going to get to play these. It's just sad, but that's why I'm glad we have the Xenia team!
They put sooo much into these early games. Its been a while since I played but the last few Ninja Storm games I played were pretty much the same. They stopped caring about the world of naruto and just focused on the big anime fights
Yeah, I picked up a PS3 Slim recently and you have to softmod it to even be able to get it to play PS2 games. And depending on when the PS3 was made, some of them aren't moddable. In my "Secondhand Nostalgia" video I do show off a few PS2 games -- all of those are running on my PS3 slim 😉
Saying it's like lost paradise would be implying it's like yakuza, and honestly, a game like yakuza with 3d platforming collectathon mechanics sounds like maybe the best thing ever created
at first glance it reminded me of Yakuza/lost paradise. just the third person perspective and running around amongst all these buildings and such. but it's not quite the same as Yakuza. it's still really fun though!
Just buy an Xbox 360 Slim or E model. The RROD was eliminated on these models afaik and both run great here to this day. Besides the really bad wifi chip in the E model by design, they cheaped out and that thing is slow af. But otherwise works. Unfortunately it doesn't still run the first NXE.. which was the best dashboard imo with the 3D and everything and not flat crap that it is now.

It really feels that way to me. The fighting is awesome in those games, but I really love the exploration this one offers. Thanks for watching!
9:20 DAMN
boy didn't have to dismantle Naruto's psyche like that 😭😤
The lack of backwards compatibility on certain versions of the PS3 was one of the reasons I switched to pc gaming years ago.

Sad to see games become relics, well done on the video bro!
There are a ton of gems a lot of people will never know about! Hopefully more people will find this game.

wel now I want to see you do a deep dive on music licensing in stuff like the classic EA games...
I actually have a video topic idea that would definitely include this. It's a huge topic though, so it'll take me a bit to make. But I'll do it! 🤝
If u have graphical issues when raging with naruto, try pressing F5 on your keyboard.
Thanks so much, I will for sure try that. I looked all over online and couldn't seem to find anything about that issue
This game looks so sick 😍 It's a shame we can't get a re-release.
An HD remaster of this with Broken Bond would be sooooo awesome.
That will never happen, Ubisoft will never ever do something good again for us players xD
@@adrenaliner91 Unfortunately you're probably right.

That dashboard was absolutely iconic. Thank you for this advice! Sounds like the Slim is the way to go.
How did you unlocked your fps to 60 in free roaming? I have only 30 fps cap
Around 19:50 in the video, I show the stuff I changed in the config files to make it work for me
18:05 did this setting not solve this issue for you?
d3d12_allow_variable_refresh_rate_and_tearing = false
it did solve it! just took me a sec to figure it out!
