Well, I'm playing Naruto Ultimate Ninja portable on PSP. The soundtrack is great, befitting of a mystic tragedy, which is the main plot in the game. I love how the levels get harder and more tedious to bypass the more you play. At first I was having some trouble figuring out the button combos, then fighting characters which actually perform decent "block" and "attack" techniques. I was too accustomed to the mere easy maneuvers needed to take on opponents that were stagnant most of the time xD

Now that I've beaten the primary part of the game, I'm using Jiraiya, Tsunade and the other full-fledged ninjas to finish it up. The battles are really evolving everything I've learnt in the primary stage. But I'm at least able to cumulate solo victories against them, if you don't count how much HP I wasted tryna score special techniques on them - the latest being my triumph over the Third, mwahahaha

I'm a bit disappointed I'm not allowed to play that "wood" scroll with Jiraiya's party though. The races against time on the trees were really fun & addicting.

Guess the only downside is the game can get iterative at times.
