Naruto Shippuden: Kizuna Drive gameplay videos get cooperative
Though its title is about as inaccessible as titles get, we're starting to understand Naruto Shippuden: Kizuna Drive thanks to the two gameplay videos posted below. In short: It's Phantasy Star Online, only minus all the technology, and plus a whole bunch of impossible ninja magic.
Naruto transforms into inevitable co-op game for PSP
There's a reason why every PSP game seemingly has four player co-op play nowadays: Monster Hunter. Capcom struck a gold mine by bringing the franchise to Sony's handheld, and Japanese developers have tried -- over and over again -- to replicate that success. Phantasy Star Portable, God Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker are just a few of the titles that have attempted to follow the formula. Naruto Shippuden: Kizuna Drive is Namco Bandai's anime ninja flavored variation, and it's coming to the US in Spring 2011, nearly a year since its original July release in Japan. Unlike the Storm series, Kizuna Drive is developed by Premium Agency. In addition to featuring an "all new story" with "game-exclusive characters," Kizuna Drive will have one more bonus Naruto fans will probably appreciate: a theme song, sung by Naruto's voice actor, Junko Takeuchi.
