Broken Bond has LIVE multiplayer

PS3 naruto game is offline only.

BB is automatically superior.

The first step to having a good game fighting game is to actually have a decent fighting system. The Broken Bond does not. The fact that Namco Bandai can make the fighting fantastic but Ubisoft can't make a decent fighting system in 2 games is inexcusable.

See, I can do it too.

Online multi is a big hit against it, but the actual quality of NUNS is a bigger factor I think than features.

The main thing going for uns is its presentation and graphics that are true to the anime.The weakest part of the game is its fighting system which is far to simplistic (one button is far to simplistic). On the other hand its the exact opposite with BB.

 

 

Spamming the physical attack button will get you raped just as fast as spamming A in Smash.  Time for a lesson in video games brought to you by naznatips.

The fighting genre is often (and reasonably) divided into two distinct categories.  Brawlers and Technical Fighters.  Here, we have shining examples of both.  A Brawler uses a simple set of commands to focus on timing and combination of those simple commands.  A Technical Fighter uses complex sequences of buttons to execute the moves necessary to win (these are also the games people call button mashers, cause they are too complicated to spend time learning so people just hammer the buttons and hope that they create a special attack or combo). 

While a Brawler is not as er... complex, I suppose is the word, as a technical fighter, it's easily the much faster genre, and reaction time becomes far more important.  In Ultimate Ninja Storm for example being able to tap the guard button at the perfect moment lets you do a substitution behind your opponent.  Chaining together traps and other items with your attacks, projectiles, and support characters is the way to fight skilfully and dominate your oponenet.  Most importantly, making effective use of speed and momentum. 

To summarize: A Technical Fighter is for the person who likes to pretend he's better than everyone else because he's studied something they don't have the time or desire to learn.  A Brawler is for someone who would rather play a game on equal footing, and have the winner determined by reaction time and skill.
