Anyone else played the demo? I quit watching the show about 2 years ago, partly due to my low tolerance of filler episodes, and repetitiveness ( I stopped at around episode 150 or so). But the game is fun. Gameplay wise, It's not a usual 2D style fighter, but it's not quite a 3D fighter like Soul calibur. It's free range, so you can run around the whole map, run on walls, water etc. There's one melee attack button, but you can pull of different combos based on how long/short the interval is between button presses, and by combining different chakra moves and throw moves with them. I think the best thing about the game for me is that the action is just as fast as the show.
One of the features that they put in (Thank the lord) is the option to set the voices to either japanese or english. You'll immediately want to set it to Japanese since we all know the english voice actors are horrific. And the visuals are just awesome. You'd think you're watching the show itself.
