 I don't really know if I can speak for everybody when I say this, but at least for me, Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm might have been one of the coolest games I had ever seen at the point of its release back in 2008. And I'm not gonna lie, a big part of that was because you could fight on the walls, but the game also just looked and played insanely good. Whenever I got to play it, that is. It was exclusive to PlayStation, which really sucked if you owned an Xbox. But honestly, that sounds like a me problem from 14 years ago. I have access to a PlayStation now, so I can play Naruto whenever I want. Again, though, it has been 14 years, so I don't even know if the game's any good anymore. And that is really why we are here, to see if the game that changed everything. Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm still holds up in 2022. And I don't have any friends, so I guess I'm just gonna play the story mode. All right, it's finally finished downloading. Ooh, I don't know if I'm ready for this, dude. Oh, dude, this is so cool. Damn, dude. Okay, you can't tell me that's not... Nah, dude, you can't tell me this game wasn't a game changer. This game changed everything. This still looks really good. How old is this game, bro? This looks really good. Oh, damn. We're already a ninja. I'm speeding through the village. Damn, bro, Naruto has moves. What the hell? Damn, I ran all that way to get some ramen, bro. All right, now the real game's getting started. When do I get to play? Man, I really did run all that way to get some ramen. Finally again, Ian. Let's go. Oh, we got... Ooh, chapter one. Oh, I forgot we had, like, title cards. I'm here on end. I'm going all out so that one day I can become Okagi. Hey, let's go. In Ultimate Mission mode, you can control Naruto and take on various missions. Naruto Cannon, what? Press triangle to quickly move across long distances? What? Shadow Club Jutsu! Oh, you get... What? Bro, I don't remember any of this. What? Wait, I have to... What? There's buttons? What is this? Legend of Zelda? I have to put this barrel down on this button? What? Oh, my God, I'm a puzzle god. What did that open up? Oh, secret door. What did I get? Ooh, money. Damn, I found all the secrets. I have a shuriken mode? Oh, my God, what? Oh, oh, oh. Side step, side step. We better watch out, watch out. Nah, wait a minute. Is this actually Toby, bro? It's going right through him. Look, nah, hold on. The fan theories might... The fan theories might be adding up, bro. Look at that, they go right... Nah, the fan theories have something. Oh, you can lock on in this game? How do I throw? That is sick. Are you kidding me? Hey, what do you got to say to me? Let's see. Where could they be selling sweet red bean soup? That woman milks that help for all she... What? Just who I was looking for. Could I ask a favor of you? I need your help. Sure. Sorry, it's about ramen. Big surprise. If you find any handy looking ingredients, bring them here. I'll make a test batch. Oh, I have to receive it on a mission and he can boost my chakra. New S... That's an S-rank mission. I'm going to be the Hokage in no time. Wait a minute. This is a save point. I don't really need to save, bro. What's there to save? If this is to be believed, I have zero missions right now. Something tells me I should probably head for the main gate. I am not going to the main gate. God damn it. You know what? This would be so much easier if I had the height advantage on my side, bro. All right, here we go. All right, let's get up on this building. There we go. There we go. Bro, I wonder which building is going to be the one that Naruto makes Sasuke eternally depressed on when he just outdoes him with the Rosengon. Anyway, I could literally see the gate from here. All we need is a good Naruto canon. Why can't I see where I'm going? Oh, God. No, no, no, no, no. Please. Oh, damn. Naruto is good. I didn't know he... I didn't think he would know how to walk at this stage yet. The boy next door is always picking on me. Maybe he hates me. Where is he, bro? Huh, it has come to my attention that I most likely have to talk to every single person. Why doesn't it want me to crash into stuff? Oh, damn. I was laid out for like five minutes. Oh, no, dude, I'm going to have to talk to every mission mark. Oh, God, we're going to have to speedrun this. No, no, no, don't jump. Don't jump. No, no. Wall running. Oh, only where wood slates are. Wait, I do have a wall jump. I can wall run and wall jump. Nice mission list survival exercise. Oh, so I just have to take on a mission. All right. Hey, so the open world is really just for side quest. I could just skip straight to what I need to be. Difficult challenge right from the get go. Accomplish the survival exercise. Bro, I was already chakra walking on water and summoning shadow clones to throw me a thousand miles. I got this. This is going to be the easiest match of my life. Oh, oh, get the hands on him. Get the hands on him. Oh, combo still looking good in the air. Extensions. Oh, resets. Get up, Kakashi. I'm going to slam him into the ground. Nah, Kakashi getting his beat down. Oh, let's see if he can handle my ultimate. They're mine. I guess I accidentally used my demon wind bomb and I'm on why am I on fire? Wait, what am I? I don't remember this mechanic. Why am I on fire? It doesn't matter. I'm going to win. Oh, easy quick time event win. Dog pile up Kakashi. Let's get him. I'm winning this. Give me the damn bell, you old man. Kakashi just had no expression on his face. Yeah, I got to be honest, bro. Kakashi kind of got worked right there. I'm great. I'm great and humble too. Secret scrolls appeared in the stage. Wait, what? As you clear mission, secret scrolls will appear throughout the village. Oh, I can get noon in Jutsu. All right, now I think I want to go get these secret scrolls. Man, they got them lined up for me. One, two, three, four, five. Oh, I'm just, oh, wait, can I run up this? Oh, oh, I'm walking on walls. Dude, that was sick. All right, and the other secret scrolls are over here. Come on, come on. Oh, wait, wait, wait. I can almost perfectly go nailed it. Oh my God, that was sick. Now, I don't know what hidden scrolls do, but as soon as I learn, oh, I am literally going to be unstoppable. All right, it's time for a mission. Oh, these are what the missions are. Hide and seek with Konohamaru. Bro, I will beat the shit out of Konohamaru and Hide and Seek. Oh my God, he's good. He's got Konohamaru, get back here. Hey, where'd you think you were going? You thought I wouldn't catch up? He asked me to come all this way for a game of hide and seek? I wonder if you'll be able to find me. When I hide, I become one with nature, so no matter who you are, all right, go hide already. Damn, tell him, Naruto. The first step to becoming a great ninja, hide and seek battle with Konohamaru. You'll be sorry. Don't move until you count to 10, and then don't imitate me. Find the hidden Konohamaru within the time limit. Konohamaru is hiding in one of the boxes scattered about the village. He's in a box. Talk to villagers to learn information about Konohamaru's whereabouts. They will also give you hints as arrows. Do I really even need help, bro? Oh, no, I don't need help. I'm doing this, no help, no help run. Damn, not in there. Oh my God, Naruto, don't get depressed. We still have 80 seconds. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Hey, hey, damn it, he's still not in here. So the green markings are even the boxes? That's him. That's got to be him right here. Konohamaru, damn it. Oh, hey, it's my guy on that building. Konohamaru, damn it. Please, Konohamaru, please. You got to be the one of these. He's good, dude. He knows everything about hide and seek. All right, maybe one little hint wouldn't hurt. So he's somewhere in between. Oh, this is him. This is him. This is him. This is him. Konohamaru, that's him. That's him. This is him right here. Got him, right here. Yes, I knew it. Easiest game of hide and seek in my life. Mission success, and that's 13 more mission XP. Now you know just how good I am. I ain't going to lie. That was the easiest thing I've ever done. All right, well, now that I know that those count as side missions, I might start doing that a little more. Osamu Kuranai and Onkar discussing team formations. Why can I do this? I'm confused. Why am I allowed to do missions like this? All right, well, I don't think I understand, but I'm going to go over there anyway. Hey, you guys talking about team formations over here? I like this member combination. I recommend these three. What are you three sensei doing together? Oh, they're going to test the team against me. Bro, 1v3. Damn. You hear those HD sound effects? I'm getting ready to... Bro, I'll fold whoever they throw in front of me. Shino, Sakura, and Choji. Wait, I can play as whoever I want? I get to play as whoever? Bro, let me... Bro, I got to play as Shikomaru. Shikomaru, you know he goes crazy. Let me get Shikomaru, Kiba, and Neji, bro, the dream team. I like how Naruto just lied, by the way. Yeah, I'm down to fight whoever you guys want. Just leaves and let Shikomaru do it. You know what? You're getting an ultimate right away. Ooh, Kiba with the goodness is. Neji with the classic assist. Why did I... Wait, why did Shikomaru throw his whole ass in? What kind of combo is that? Get him. Oh my God, this ultimate is impossible to hit. I am going to land this ultimate. Do not doubt me. All right, I'm so... Shino. Shino! Oh my God, Choji ate that. Oh, I subbed. Damn, I'm good. Bro, he's rough. I can't. I got him. I got him. There's no way he blocked that. Oh, it worked. This is the final blow. Oh my God, we're strangling him. Shino strangled you, too. Oh my God, I thought we were going to do the thing where we just make him bash his head. All right, that was pretty sick. Get up. Oh. Oh, that was sick behind the back. Ninja tool, get up. Oh, Neji's assist goes forever in this game. Throw it. Throw it. Nice. Oh, and he landed on his head. Damn, another side mission complete. Now it's time for me to get back to the main story. Through the training match, Nardo was able to learn the basic moves. Kikashi announced the next mission was to learn the most important thing. Teamwork. He's the most valuable lesson. Attaining teamwork. Let's go. All right, now we're finally back on the main story quest. We get to learn about teamwork. All right, hold on. Apparently, I need to pay attention to these. Win the battle in a state where awakening mode is not possible. Summon a support character at least twice. All right, so we're really learning about teamwork. Is teamwork that important? Well then, let the lesson begin. We really just asked his teamwork that important to a man that's two teammates died horribly. Low-key, low-key, not our best question. There's my two. Teamwork looking very good. Oh, he must be impressed. He's got to be impressed. Get up, Kikashi. All right, enough teamwork. I know you could probably tell that I am clicking these buttons slow as hell. And that has always been my weakness, bro. My hands and my brain do not move that fast. Last one. Ugh, slam them on the ground. Can I also just do the next story mission or do I have to wait? Master how to move? The training match finished and threw it. Naruto and Comrades learned many things from Kikashi, but they were given a set of tasks. The first task was a mission to master the art of moving. Catch five cats? What? This is so different from the later games. The knowledge of a ninja. Mastering movement. All right, we're catching cats. Go catch five cats belonging to the women up ahead. That's all for this simple mission. Yeah, something tells me I'm not making it to the Gara fight in this video. You know what though? This is actually very simple, considering I just got done catching Konohamaru. Damn, HD sound effect. I'm ready. Oh, that's one cat down. Got him. You can perform wall jump whenever there are walls close to each other. Oh, that's how the wall jump works. Oh, then this is going to be easy, bro. Oh, that is sick. That is so sick. Where's the cat? Give me that. Oh, damn, this cat tried to box me out. No, don't try to fight with me, cat. It's already over. That's two down. Oh, this third cat is going to be wait, rope action. Wait, why would I use a rope unless I'm a scrub? Hold on. I don't think I need a rope for this. Actually, I probably need a rope. Where's the rope? Oh, shit. Whoa, whoa, whoa. What? Spin, spin, spin. Shit. Shit. This is more complex than I thought. No, I'm going to get that cat. Damn it. That was bad. Soccer help. Oh my God. Do something to help me get this cat, bro. Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, go. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, damn it. I spun too far. I couldn't stop clicking X for some reason. All right, come on. Oh, that was sick. Oh my God. Okay, that one was close. This cat almost got away, but I got him. Then they got this cat locked up in jail. Oh, no. I'm going to have to hit another switch. God, damn it. All right, what bot? Oh, there it is. Oh, there we go. If I put some chakra behind it, it's not that bad. Got him. All right. That one was actually much easier than I thought. With the power of chakra, anything is just a breeze to handle. And now it's time for my classic Naruto canon. All right. Now just don't miss. Let's go. All right. Well, I'm not going to lie. That's going to set me back a little ways. Can I make it from down here, baby? Oh, no. All right. I'll just have to settle for going up here. Nice. All right. We're piecing it together after my brutal mistake. And then this is it. Oh, your hero's here, cat. Yes. All right. That's five out of five. We're done. The knowledge of a ninja, improving agility. Oh, brother. We're just getting faster and faster. Kakashi's trading is really focused on speed. Oh, what is this? Oh, I think I remember this is sick. Oh, this is sick. Why would I ever need to know about slowing down? I'm going turbo speed the whole way. All right. Go. Let's roll. Turbo speed. Oh, this is sick. I'm going for double turbo. Oh, this is so cool. Turbo speed again. Oh, my God. Go. Jesus, look at how big this force. Oh, who paid a paper bomb there? Why? All right. So clearly there's some day we are still at war. I guess, you know, dangerous times. Oh, I can't get any of these turbo speeds. I'm too busy looking up for paper bombs. Nice. Oh, beautiful. It's going to be on the left. Damn. Yeah. No, no, no, we're fine. We're fine. I'm back in the game. I'm back in the game. Turbo speed. Oh, we made it. We crossed the finish line. Oh, we all did. Look at us. Yeah. Team seven kind of goes crazy. All right. Well, now that we can move that fast, I wonder what our next mission is going to have to be. Hopefully it doesn't have to do with chakra control. The knowledge of a ninja mastering chakra control. All right. Well, if I'm going to use chakra control, avoid branches climbing up to the top of the tree. Oh, I don't even need to read the rest. Here we go. One, two, go. And this is a big ass tree. Maximum speed chakra. Speed, speed, speed, dodge it, speed, speed, dodge it. Don't know what that is, but I'll take it. Dodge. Oh my God. I'm so good. Yo, Kakashi, you watching this man? Yo, Kakashi has to be watching this. He's got to be proud right now. Oh, in and out like nobody's business. Oh, I don't get hit. Weave, weave, weave, weave. Oh, weave, weave, weave, weave. Oh my God. He's, ha ha. Damn, damn. Ah, yeah. 30 seconds, dude. I made that look like a piece of cake. This game is so good. All right. Well, I need one more XP point to do the next mission. So I guess we're looking around for other missions to do. Perhaps this person will have a mission for me. Yes. New d-rank mission instantly. That's exactly what I was looking for. Oh, wait. Walk the eternal road. Footprints in the earth. Break the targets one. I'm just going to do break the targets one. Break 200. Oh my God. Never mind. That's like long term goals. What the hell? I don't, I don't have time for long term goals. I need to do a mission now. It doesn't mean there's not time to stop for a quick scroll gathering session. Oh man. Oh my God, dude. This is like taking me so far out of my way. Oh, yes. Finally, more mission XP. Yes, finally, dude. Mission XP. I never thought I'd see the day. Are we just fighting Sakura? Oh my God. This is the mission I have to do for XP. Bro, who am I going to? Yeah. I'm going to make this very accurate to the manga. All right. Spoilers for late. Oh my God. That was anime as hell. Oh my God. Oh my God. That was instant. Sakura, look out. Incoming spoilers. Wait, hold on. I got to see that ultimate again. How is Sakura supposed to read? Damn. That looks so good. All right. Hold on. I got to see that again. How is Sakura supposed to react to that? Okay. Even Naruto is getting a piece. Damn. All right. So let me see. Did I just phase in, phase out, and then phase in? Bro, dead end. Oh no. No, no, no. No, block it, block it, block it, block it, block it, block it, block it. How did she counter me that easily? Oh, I dodged those. Don't ever try me. Fireball Jutsu. Don't even try me with that. Yeah. You thought you had me for a second. Fireball. Fireball Part 2. Where is she? Where's Sakura? Oh, there she is. Damn. All the combos. Conditions violated. Landed at least three. No. Easy Ws, dude. That only took me twice because I never read. Damn. Sakura's fast. She ran away quick. Anyway, I don't really have time to care because now I get to complete my guinea training arc. Finally, Takashi Itake's final exam. Takashi Itake's final exam. Time to put teamwork to the test. Yeah. Let's go. We're getting those bells. If that's what we have to do. All right, hold on. Win battle. Win in a state where awakening mode is not possible. Summon support carrier four times. Okay. So he's looking to test our teamwork again. All right. I'm going to summon my teammates nice and early. One, two. Who we trapped? Nice. Oh, tilt move. Oh, you're getting a hole beating. As soon as Sasuke's ready. There you go, Sasuke. There you go, Sasuke. Let him know. Sakura, cover for me. Teamwork. Teamwork. Oh, my God. The combos. All right. Game over. Kakashi. It's my win. You know, I kind of stopped doing my button presses halfway through. Hopefully he didn't, you know, counter me. Oh, it doesn't look like he did. It's game over. It's game over for Kakashi. Get out of there. Hey, that wasn't so hard. All it was was another battle. The getting trading arc has finally been completed and we've entered a new scenario. The tuning exam are and we unlocked in Kashi. All right. Well, I was going to end the video, but I realized I couldn't do it without playing Kakashi first. I mean, we worked that hard to get him. We might as well use him. I can only get one support lightning blade double quick. Oh, this is going to be sick. All right. Let me see lightning blade first. Oh, my God. Was that my ultimate? Oh, he never saw it coming. This is sick. Oh, my God. Lightning blade. I remember Kakashi's ultimate in this game was what really just was like, damn. Double lightning blade. Damn, dude. When I saw that for the first time, I was like, nah, there's no way. This game is too cool. Let me hit it with an OG lightning blade. Oh, full charge. Oh, I don't know why moves with charges in this game are just so cool to me. Shut up. Damn, Kakashi is cool. Whoo. All I'm doing is hitting up a lightning blade. All right. One more ultimate for the road, Geriah. All right. I actually want to see what happens when I fail. I want to see what happens when I fail. How do you mess up a Jutsu like this? Lightning blade. No good. Damn, he's good. I mean, if he could substitute that, he just, he tricked us. Oh, Geriah, don't let Naruto do it to you. Yeah, at least fight back. Well, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. I'm not trying to fail. I'm not trying to fail. All right. All right. Enough, enough, enough. All right. But with that, that is going to do it for this video. Hopefully you enjoyed it. If you want to see more Naruto Storm, I guess let me know. I didn't expect to want to do a second video on this, but I kind of want to at least get through the tuning exams. I don't really know. Other than that, though, let me know what you thought of the first Storm game down below in the comments and check out the other videos that should be on your screen right now. I have been Dododoya and I will see you in the next one.
