Naruto: Ultimate Ninja PlayStation 2 Review

Ninja.” Naruto, if you don’t know, is the latest anime

book). The titular hero, Naruto, has ambitions of becoming

Pokemon Ranger Review
It's only been a little more than a month since Pokemon
Mystery Dungeon started shipping for the Nintendo DS, and
yet in that short amount of time Nintendo thinks you're
ready for another Pocket Monster adventure on the
dual-screen handheld. Pokemon Ranger, like Mystery Dungeon,
is another spin-off that has elements from the true Pokemon
RPG design, but takes its design into a different direction
so as not to step on the toes of the game everyone really
wants: Game Freak's own Pokemon RPG. In the case of Pokemon
Ranger, this is more action-based than RPG based, and unlike
Mystery Dungeon it's a game that uses the DS for its more
unique design.
