Bad stuff out the way: there are a few small glitches. Quite often when you're sitting in your pit garage, with the option of 'go to track', your bike won't be on it's stand ready, and then it'll suddenly appear. And sometimes, in the post-race highlights, your bike can be riderless, and then in the next shot you're on the bike again. The graphics in your motorhome (career mode) are a little rough, (and in the pit garage) and the emails/social feed messages you get during the career mode are very generic. And the game front cover....in reality the ps3 version is the same as all the other versions with Crutchlow at the front, Lorenzo and Rossi following....I wonder if Yamaha paid out for that?

And this is still a 5* game because none of that matters! Is it the best racer on ps3? Maybe not, (burnout paradise is for me) but it *is* the best sim racer. This game laughs in the face of gran turismo 5, and is just downright more fun than any of the codemasters racers, (f1/grid/dirt). Be warned! MotoGP 13 has a steep learning curve, but once you 'get' it, it's the most rewarding and addictive racer I've ever played. If you're unsure, download the demo off psn.

I'm playing it with the AI on 'hard' (easy/medium/hard/realistic), the physics on 'standard' (standard/semi-pro/pro), joint brakes on, (you do have the option to control the front and rear brakes separately) auto tuck-in, (you can choose whether to manually 'tuck-in' your rider on the straights/sit up when approaching corners) and auto gears. I've got the brake and steering assists off. I've also got tyre wear/mechanical failures/disciplinary flags all off, (which they are by default but can all be turned on)....and I'm just loving it!

First off you create a rider; then you have a choice of instant race, (motogp class, random rider/random track) grand prix, (choose from moto3/moto2/motogp, choose your rider altho some are locked and you have to level up to unlock them and choose your track, whether you want to do a full weekend/qualifying & race/just race, choose the weather etc). You also have a championship option, so you can choose to do a whole championship in any of the 3 classes, and then you have the meat of the game career. In career you play as the rider you created and you have your own motorhome, where you can customize your rider more/check emails/social feeds etc. You start off as a wild card in four moto3 races, and if you meet all your objectives then you go on to do a full moto3 season. If you do well you get offered a moto2 ride and so on....

There's also 2-player split screen, and multiplayer. In multiplayer there's the usual options of quick race/custom race etc, and also full online championship :)

One thing to note, when doing a race in any of the offline modes; the default option is race-only, 15% race length, and the AI is set to easy, brake assist is on etc etc, so if you want to do qualifying/practice, a longer race, and crank up the difficulty etc then you have to go into 'racing aids' and 'race options'. Once you've changed it, the game saves your preferences tho :)

So the racing? Well it's awesome! The physics are perfect. When you crash you know it's fair; it's because you were braking too hard while lent over, or you squeezed on too much gas too early etc. If you hammer the brakes on the approach to a corner the back wheel will skip, and if you really overdo it you'll do an 'endo' but you don't go straight over the handle bars in an unrealistic way. Equally pulling back and accelerating too hard will pull off a wheelie, which if overdone can send you off the back. The bikes feel brilliantly nimble, yet planted and the way you can slide the back wheel out when winding the throttle on, on the exit to a corner is just epic. It's amplified more when you move the physics from standard to semi-pro or pro, so you have to practice careful throttle control. The AI is also brilliant, making lunges, but not too aggressive like the maniacs in the 'nfs shift' games, but definitely not on rails like gran turismo.

When racing the graphics too are top notch, photo realistic, with a silky framerate. The 360 version looks to be getting a lot of complaints of bad slowdown, but not so on the ps3. Have we got the better version of a game for once? Anyway, it's perfect, and has a great photo mode you can activate during the replay, (the replay, not the race highlights. You can press square when it's displaying the race results to watch the entire race again from a variety of cameras. Pause, fast forward, watch in slow-mo and take photos, which can be exported to the xmb and used as cool wallpapers etc :)) The sound too to me is very very good; a lot of professional and customer reviews seem to criticize the sound as sounding like a guy swinging a chainsaw, or just generally very weak, but put this through a decent set of speakers or headphones and it sounds real to me.

The presentation when you start a race is ripped straight out of British eurosport, which makes it feel super authentic.

I just really cannot recommend this game enough. It's niche, so it's a shame not many people will take any notice of it; the casual race fan would be more likely to take a random punt on stuff like 'grid 2' which is a let-down of a game but the care and effort which has been ploughed into this is brilliant, and the sheer racing, handling model and overall physics are all just spot on!

If you like racers, and are prepared to initially put some effort into learning how to play this game properly, then just buy buy buy. It's seriously a top draw game, and deserves support :)

Where's the dlc for north America plus the handling almost slipped away from them trying to make a sim motorcycle game with people using controllerstakes away the fun of the game in mgp08 the arcade handling was more forgiving and let you enjoy the game mgp13 still is very good but it shouldn't be frustrating but it still allows you to have fun if mgp13 had 08's arcade handling it would be real nice but this is still very manageable awesome game just wish here in the U.S. we had the dlc. Awesome game though.

You have to be a fan of moto and racing to like this. I especially enjoy the feature of being able to talk to the engineers and have them automatically tune your bike. I also like how the practice and qualifying sessions are in real time. This game is awesome. Too bad its not in the States, but well worth the wait for overseas mail and customs.

Pros: Super fun, beautiful cel-shaded graphics, over-the-top techniques, choice of English or Japanese audio track (with English subtitles), follows the Naruto storyline before Shippuuden in the Story Mode, unique characters, extremely fun boss fights.

Cons: Simple one-button combination attacks, mini-games in Story Mode get repetitive, traveling around Konoha to pick up scrolls gets tedious, simple mechanics cause fights to be similar even when using different characters.

Comments: The Pros and Cons explain the basic gist of the game. This PS3-exclusive is the sixth installment of the Narutimate/Ultimate Ninja series for home consoles (ignoring portable and card games), and it does well to fit in. The control scheme is almost identical to past games in the series, changing L1 and R1 to teammate-assist attacks, and switching item use to the directional pad (forcing movement to be analog-stick-only). Ultimate Ninja Storm puts the series into 3D rather than the previous two-planes 2D system. This allows full three-dimensional movement across a battlefield, making fights seem more action/adventure-game-oriented not unlike the Devil May Cry or Ninja Gaiden series of games. The game is filled with tons of extras, from music and video collectibles to figurines and more special moves. All this is earned in the Story Mode by completing missions and purchasing items using earned in-game cash. Most of the missions are battles, but there are three types of mini-games that show up as missions as well: hide-and-seek, race, and chase; they are fun at first, but after the 3rd time, it gets a bit old. (There is actually a fourth mini-game, as a Boss Fight, but it remains fun). Because the game stops at the Naruto VS Sasuke match before the Naruto Shippuuden series, none of the "post time-skip" versions of the ninja are available as characters. This game is a whole lot of fun, and highly recommended to any fan of the series, especially those who enjoyed the Ultimate Ninja games. The simple mechanics keep this fighter from being on the same level as "real" fighters like Tekken or Street Fighter, and the repetitive mini-games and town-exploring could have been tweaked a bit. If you hate Naruto (the series), then obviously this game is not for you. A game for the fans; overall a 4 out of 5.

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm is the first Naruto game for the PS3. Personally, it has been because of this game that I have become hooked to Naruto and the Naruto Universe. The game features some of the most graphically impressive fights Ive seen for the fighting genre and has renewed my interest in that genre.

Plotwise, Ultimate Ninja Storm goes through about the first 135 episodes of the Naruto universe. It would have been better if it could have gone through the entire Part 1 of Naruto (about 220 episodes) but being that the English dub version of it is finally reaching its end, it would have been impossible.

The single player mode has modes ranging from fetch quests, treasure hunts, specialized fights with requirements (such as win the fight, while not going into awakening mode, and wining with one health bar or more remaining and perform 3 substitution jutsus). There are also other modes such as race up the tree (an aspect of the show which is for chakra control), in this case it is a mode in which you just race up the tree exceptionally fast, you can use powerups that cause fireballs to come down the mountain on your opponents. There is also another mode in which you face a giant boss fight (against a huge toad, Chief Toad from the show), and finally the other mode is that you get to jump from tree to tree in a forest. There are powerups here that allow you to get through the forest faster.

That is all that is to the single player experience. It is a requirement to go through about 60% of this mode. There are many more missions beyond that, but only the hardcore Naruto fan would go through it to get all the unlockables (character costumes, more jutsus, dioramas, music etc).

The fighting is the main aspect of this game. Unfortunately there is not any online multiplayer but there is offline multiplayer. Fights consist of the traditional normal type set ups, except here most of the moves are just mapped to the X or square button for simplicity. A guide of all of the moves is provided on the pause menu for all players, and with practice, virtually every move can be carried out. There is a chakra bar in fights, which is just your meter for performing advanced level moves (such as Naruto's special skill, the Rasengan, a huge burst of chakra at an opponent). It is also needed to be full, in order to do the special skills. The special skills all take you to a different vantage point and screen in which you have to mash the sequence that appears on your side of the screen. The opponent also receives a chance to mash buttons too and whoever can overtake more control of this bar will gain the advantage; if it is the opponent then they will sleazily dodge it with a log ala substitution jutsu style, or if it is the player, they will launch their killer attack, like the 3rd Hokage's forbidden jutsu, Reapers Death Seal. These are perhaps the best and graphically impressive moves and makes it worth it to play as every character. One final aspect of battle, you can also use support players who you can employ to launch an attack and catch you when you are blasted away. Finally fighting can take place on a 3d field, in which you can fight on the normal ground as well as on the walls.

Pretty much the main cast of our favorite genin are available to play with as well as their sensei's, the the legendary sannin are also available to play as. Support characters are also available to play as and are released as DLC.

The entire voice cast of the show has seemed to reprise their roles here with voiced scenes moves. There is limited voice acting in the story mode, but then there are maybe about five FMVs, and these are all fully voiced. Graphically, this game is shocking in how beautiful it is. It is hard to describe the style pseudo 3D, 2.5D cel shading but it works.

There isn't much more to crave for from this game except for a sequel. I implore you, if you are or aren't a Naruto fan, then you must still get this game!

BRIEFLY

I liked the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm for its:

great graphics

easy controls when in battle mode

big story

minigames

The only negatives I can think of is the somewhat long loading times and the lack of an online mode.

THE STORY MODE

The game follows the Naruto arc up to the point when Naruto battles Sasuka at the Final Valley but there are many other on the side.

You travel the Hidden Leaf Village collecting ryo and secret scrolls and other useful items while doing various missions. You get ryo by traveling the village, and smashing pots and paper lamps, or as rewards after completing a mission. You use ryo to buy items. If you find secret scrolls and sometimes you will be using your mind powers or detective skills to find them, sometimes you just notice them you can exchange them to get new jutsu (powers) for your characters.

After you complete missions, sometimes treasure chests appear in the village. These chests can hold some extra ryo, or new jutsu. There are also ingredient bags that are similar to treasure chests but hold ingredients. You can use the ingredient or certain items earned in missions to make ramen and increase your chakra (power).

In missions, you do things like complete a mini game, fight in battles or get items to a character. When you complete a mission you can get ryo, items, or characters. Certain missions cause for secret scrolls or chests to appear in the village.

The battles in the game make the player control the character easily and make the battle look epic at the same time. You can play as almost any character in the Naruto series. While in battle you can invoke support characters. Every character has their pros and cons, but learning a character's strengths and weakness can make you unbeatable. I found Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm: Prima Official Game Guide (Prima Official Game Guides) to be the perfect reference and guide for the game. Each character also has an awaking mode which is a more powerful version of them that can be accessed when they are week during a battle.

Not every mission is a battle. There are 5 alternate types of missions:

chase race against time or another character

climb like chase, only going up a giant tree

find giant games of hide and seek

giant battles fight some giant creature, dodge its attacks and seize the opportunity to attack

count missions must perform a specific set of actions to complete the mission

FREE BATTLE MODE

In the free battle mode you can select your costume, the field and the game will keep track of your score and rank you over many rounds. You can play against a human or AI opponent.

You have the ability to pick any character and support characters. You can only do battles in this mode, no missions. If you (player 1) beat your opponent, be it AI or human, you get ranked and you earn some more ryo. However, the second player doesn't earn anything.

ENHANCEMENTS

The PSN store has additional support characters that come with their own missions and figures. Up until now, they are all free.

MY RATING

I enjoyed the game and I hope you will too. I am giving it 5 stars.

the game is fantastic and graphically astonishing the game is the very best in anime fighter style games.the game can also be compared to mortal combats next installment due to this game getting better scores and better graphics enhancements. this game thrashes the 360 versions of naruto due to controls,charicters and longevity. ask yourself why would i play naruto on 360 if the controls were terrible and full of fetch quests and sub par action. buy this it is definative for anime and fighter fans alike.

Want Naruto Ultimate Ninja: Storm Discount?

Before purchasing Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm, you have to ask yourself a few things.First, do like the Naruto anime/manga series.Second,do you like semi-casual fighting games. Third,do you like anime/manga in general, and finally, are you patient. If you answered yes to these questions then this game might just be for you. Naruto:Ultimate Ninja Storm, a fast and furious adventure/fighting anime style videogame.It roughly follows the first 150 episodes of the anime which is basicly the entire original

Naruto anime series, not including any of the fillar episodes or arcs and it does it pretty well.Even though the fights and scenarios aren't a 100 percent accurate to either the anime or manga, it still does a pretty decent job at recreating them.In fact visual wise, it looks a dozen times better then the anime ever has.The cg/cell shaded graphics of the characters and enviroments( both the stages and the leaf village) are truly beautiful and offer quite a decent space to fight in.Speaking of space, you have plenty of space in which to explore the quite large Village Hidden in The Leaves when your not going through missions, you can nearly fully explore it there where you buy/ find new moves for characters, movies of ultimate jutsu attacks, stage music, figures of characters, and search for "hidden" scrolls that show up on the map clearly.The missions in Naruto:Ultimate Ninja Storm include fighting, and races through the forest from tree branch to tree branch, and running up a giant trtee while avoiding large branches in the way, as well as wird little side missions like playing hide and go seek with Konohamaru, the third Hokage's grand son. Now not including any of the fillar episodes or arcs features around 25 playable characters, plus 10 additional free downloadable characters, although any charater can be used as support, the 10 downloadable can't be played as one there own. By the way bothe japanese and english voice cast of the Naruto anime voice there characters here, and do it well. However this game isn't perfect, grips include pretty long loading times ( and lots of them), having to play through the story mode before most of the charaters and there attaks, are unlocked in the 2 player battle mode ,having to wait for the game to install it's nearly 4 gigabytes of data onto your ps3 when you first play it, oh and there's no online battling , or trophys.

Ultimatly(no stupid pun intended) Naruto:Ultimate Ninja Storm is a really fun game, even though it's not perfect, and is definitly a anime game you should but or at least rent.

Pros: -Beautiful visuals

-Lots of characters

-fun missions and fights

pretty closely follow and recreates the anime/manga arcs

-Well voiced by entire anime voice cast

Cons: -Long loading times

waiting to unlock characters

waiting for the sequal

no online battling

no trophys

-nearly 4 gigabytes of data need to be installed onto harddrive

Despite the flaws I would give this game a 4 1/2 out of 5

buy it or rent it !!

After properly installing the Intensafire mod kit into my PS3 controller, I noticed the controls in Call of Duty MW3 and Black OPS 2 did not respond correctly and gameplay was jerky when trying to sprint. This product also drains the battery really quickly so I ended up playing with the charger cable plugged in. I even tried to reinstall the kit but that didn't help. Product may be defective.

My brother, sister, and I play against each other and with each other. I love all the songs on it.

I originally bought a PS2 just to play guitar hero 1. And it was quite ground breaking. I then followed it up and bought GH2 and Rock the 80's. GH2 was a big improvement over the first, and 80's is the exact same engine as 2, just with different songs and graphic overlays.

Now, I was expecting quite a bit for GH3 but I don't think I was expecting anything over the top of what is possible. And here start all my issues with GH3:

1. Sony added bluetooth to the PS3 which was an amazing idea. There was NO need to add a wireless dongle. There is wireless built into the PS3 for a reason, USE IT! A wireless dongle for PS2 would be understandable. But common activision, there is NO excuse for the dongle.

2. The implementation of the GH3 controller with the PS3 is below standards. You CANNOT turn on the PS3 with the controller like you can the sixaxis.

3. People have been waiting for a guitar controller for the PS3 so they can play the old GH's on the system. Here is the controller everyone has been waiting for, but sorry... this controller doesn't work with anything but GH3. GH I, II, and rock the 80's still have no way to play on a PS3 even though sony added backwards compatability for legacy games.

4. Why couldn't they model the guitar after a sixaxis? They could have made the guitar run just like a sixaxis which in turn would create a seamless integration with the PS3 like it should be. The 5 colored buttons could stay the way they are right now, the two bottom triggers on the sixaxis are pressure sensitive and could have been used for the wammy bar. The built in motion sensor could be the 'star power' trigger, and there is still many more buttons left over. There is no need for such a poorly integrated controller.

5. The overall timing of the game feels 'off'. I've calibrated and still the game doesn't feel right.

6. In practice mode, your calibration doesn't work. So if you calibrate your TV with lets say 50ms, in practice mode it's always at 0ms no matter what. In the high ms (80+) you will not be able to hit one note properly. Go try it and see for yourself.

7. There are some great songs on here, but there is way more filler than the good stuff. I've already beat the game on expert, and I got excited for maybe 4 or 5 songs the entire way through. Mostly it was "lets get this over so I can move on" type songs.

8. The guitar runs on 2 AA batteries. Again, if this was modeled after the sixaxis like it should have been, it would have been a simple usb cord to charge the guitar. Yeah I know it's just 2 batteries, but I still feel the developers were lazy putting this package together.

There are positives, the removable neck is great, the guitar feels solid, removable face plate, updated graphics (720P), downloadable content in the future. But I still feel let down with this one. Let the flaming begin ;)

First off let me just say that this is a great game. I was a little concerned when it switched from Harmonix to Neversoft, but they have stayed true to what guitar hero is all about. Mechanics of the game is the same and the game play is very fun as usual.

This however is not for the faint hearted. The song list is great (mostly original artists and not cover bands like the last 2 games) but they are very fast paced and particulary "shredders" where you feel your arm is about to fall off. I play on hard and expert. You shouldn't have any problems and if you are new to guitar hero I recommend on starting out easy/medium due to the difficultly level being anti-upped in guitar hero 3. "One" in particular is the song title by Metallica which is a very hard song to beat and this would be for those who have played guitar hero before and want a significant challenge.

What's interesting is that they have added what's called "battle mode" which instead of star power, you get battle power. So when you activate your "battle power" (same as activating star power) you are able to distract your opponent but cutting a string, flipping his guitar to lefty, making him hit the whammy bar, upping the difficult (hard to expert) and doubling the notes. This is a very fun addition and adds to the party game experience while adding challenge too.

As far as the guitar it's self, I had no problem hooking it (bluetooth and the PS3 version using a dongle). Just hit the button on the dongle then the PS button on the controller. The strum bar does not click as much and it is slightly longer than the previous models making strumming easier. The buttons and neck seem sturdier and les paul design is classic with inter-changable face plates. The guitar is significantly heavier (but not heavy where it hurts the neck) so you don't feel like you're going to break it while rocking out to the songs. Online play is great and I haven't had any problems so far with lag time/delays. I would highly recommend this to has played guitar hero before and to people who want to start playing (just start out on medium trust me).

I was a little worried when I ordered this game based on some of the complaints I'd been reading. Having received it and spent several hours playing, I find that the complaints are basically valid but not as big a deal as some might have one believe. Here are my thoughts:

* The song list ranges from worthless to classic. They're trying to please too many different people and should probably consider releasing separate games in specific genres going forward. I love the classic rock and '80s metal tracks, but a lot of the others don't do anything for me. I'm sure that plenty of younger gamers have the opposite reaction. Also, the fact that a few of the songs can only be played in multiplayer mode is extremely annoying.

* The gameplay is indeed much harder than in previous games. Aside from the fact that Easy still uses only 3 fret buttons and Medium uses 4, each difficulty level is roughly equivalent to the next highest level in the earlier games.

* The fact that the controller isn't compatible with the earlier games still blows my mind. This is shocking and inexcusable! What were they thinking?

* The controller does have some issues -it occasionally misses notes and the star power sensor is way too sensitive. If, like me, you're mainly interested in just jamming along to fun tunes, it's not really a big deal. If your goal is to beat every song on Expert level, it might drive you crazy. I've found that playing while sitting down helps, but of course that's not as fun as rockin' around the room. (Note to those complaining about lack of Bluetooth -bear in mind that the bluetooth guitar will probably cost an extra $50. The RF works fine just hit the dongle button and then the P button on the controller. You might need to fiddle with it if it doesn't set the guitar up as controller #1 though.)

* If you have lag problems, try putting the TV into Game Mode (most newer HD sets have this). That cuts out most of the image processing in the TV and may solve the problem. I went through the GH calibration on my Toshiba DLP set and it reported 0 ms lag. I haven't had any lag problems at all.

* A couple of song download packs are now available, but they're on the expensive side for only 3 songs per pack.

That all said, it's still Guitar Hero and basically the same idea as the earlier games. The fun songs are still fun and it's still worth playing. It's just not at the level of quality that it could have been.

I picked up my copy of GHIII last night and played it a bit when I got home and this morning. If you're a fan of the other GH games, you'll love this one too.

First the positives: I love the boss battles. Lots of fun battling against slash and one of the devil's minions. The expert level boss battles are insane!

I liked the smaller guitar and fret buttons. Gameplay controls and response time is spot on. I tried to play the PS2 versions of GH II and 80s on the PS3 with the adapter, but I ended up taking it all back to the store because the controls were crap. Finally we get a GH game made just for the PS3!

Now the middle road: I'm sure I'll get some crap for this, but I'm not that happy with the song list. Yes, playing "Welcome to the Jungle" with Slash and playing Metallica's "One" is awsome, along with Slayer, etc. BUT, I miss the GH II tracks I played when I used to have the 360 (before I traded it after the ring of death and having to deal with Microsoft...what a mess). I REALLY hope the track list for GH, GHII and 80s will eventually be available for PS3, whether its by a campanion CD or download from PSNetwork. Afterall, the price of the PS3 version is the same as the 360 version and that console can play GH II at least and has a better online capability (for now at least).

What I didn't like: With all the advances the PS3 has made...how dare Activision and Red Octane release the game with a "wireless" guitar that required a gongle attached to a USB port. Are you serious?! You mean to tell me they couldn't come up with a way to make it just as wireless as the useless six axis remote? Come on! No Bluetooth? No USB recharge capability? Weak! Just another thing I have to keep buying batteries for.

Lastely, I know I mentioned this already, but I want to be able to play tracks from older versions on the PS3 the way they were meant to be played. They better make it happen!

A fun game, fans of the older versions will love it. Gamers who buy this version as their first will probably be a little dissapointed to not have some of the tracks they heard about in the previous games.

When it came to great music games, nothing this past year has really proven to shine like the Guitar Hero franchise. With the past few installments delivering well on the Playstation 2, many PS3 owners have been anxious for their debut on the great video game. Nevertheless, it hasn't all been smiles. With the spinoff Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks The 80's, it really didn't click definitively with die hard Playstation 2 fans. But, the PS3 has that opportunity to make it its own into the well-dedicated franchise with the latest installment of the Guitar Hero franchise, and it will, it will definitely rock you!

Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock for the Playstation 3, brings the latest installment of Activision's great music game as it debuts for the PS3. The game brings out a lot when it comes to great rock music. The game includes a special wireless guitar for the PS3 which works well with the game. The graphics and sound really deliver well into the game. The latest installment also includes some new features into the game like boss battles, which fair well, but don't completely shine with just 3 bosses, unlike the rest of the game. The standard features are here like the previous installment with multiplayer action improved, as you can compete with others online, as well as co-op mode. The songlist also shines better here as well with Rock classics like Barracuda from Heart, One by metal gods Metallica, the traditional Rock N' Roll party anthem Rock N' Roll All Night by Kiss, and other interesting surprises here like the Beastie Boys Rap classic Sabatoge. The control works well with Playstation 3, as you strum your way with the specialty PS3 guitar, and the fun works quite well, as you bring out your inner rock god. There are also a few added features here, as you can unlock specialty venues and faceplates that you can customize your guitar with.

All in all, Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock is a great buy for the Playstation 3 that really is worth the money, and a mostly well-delivered debut for Sony's latest console. I absolutely recommend this as one of the top music games of 2007, and the price is definitely right.

I had SF4 on my xbox a while ago, but my brother got rid of it. Several years later I bought a gaming pc and decided to pick this up on pc. The game is just as good as the xbox version, even though there are much less people playing online, it doesn't really matter since you can just turn on fight requests and have people fight you. One thing that I am not a fan of is the absurd amount of lag in online mp. I don't know if it's my connection or the people that I'm playing with, but their latency will be either 0 or 1 bar (out of 5).

Beyond that there is nothing else to complain about. I know that most people aren't fans of Games for Windows LIVE, but personally I don't mind the service and it hasn't presented any problems to me yet. If you plan on buying this game on pc I would highly recommend an xbox controller or a gamepad of some sort, this game was not meant to be played with a keyboard.

I am not impressed with this game at all and isn't what I expected. I have owned every single Tony Hawk game and have loved each and every one of them, with this one being the exception. The board/controller that comes with the game is too sensitive in some aspects and not sensitive enough in others. There's no way to adjust it, for example: You use the board to navigate through the menus and I found this frustrating because the ever so slight lean towards any dirrection will cause the curser to scroll through menu after menu and select something I wasn't even trying to pick. Durning game play it seems like no matter how hard you lean to the right, left, up, or down the game is slow to register your motion. The motions you do make on the board/controller do not mimic anything of a real skateboard maneuver. Growing up on a skateboard, I expected this to be somewhat of a simulation of real skating... it is not! The most disappointing part of this game is the "levels." No more free roaming around skate spots, your character follows a predetermined path as you can't not steer in the game. Each level is a challenge of race to the finsh line, high score of tricks, and "do this _____ (ollie, grind, fliptrick)here." The Best thing I can compare this game to is the video arcade game 'Top Skater' that really sucks. I wish I hadn't wasted my time with this one... Thanks THPS for letting me down.

Bought the game... Got it home... unboxed it, and the controller failed to sync up.

Tried all kinds of different ways to get it to sync and it never would.

Tried calling the support line, and after only 2 or 3 selections, was told by the ever helpful automated system we'd have to RMA the board and do it only on the internet. I kinda wanted to talk to a real person but this was NOT an option.

Went onto their primary support web site, into their knowledge-base, and, after following THEIR directions, was told it needed to be RMA'd (again). Tried to follow the link on their web page to RMA, and it pulled up an error (a PHP error it looked like).

I sent an e-mail to their support, and they e-mailed me the link to the bad RMA page. I mailed them back saying that I couldn't even GET to the RMA page on the web, and they said they would look into it.

Mind you, over 48 hours had elapsed by this time. My flavor for the game, controller, and manufacturer had soured and I was done. I returned the game to the original vendor and wash my hands of anything from Tony Hawk again. Looks like Skate from here on out.

I bought this game for my son for Christmas. Despite the bad word of mouth... I mean.. my kid wanted it for Christmas... how do you say "no" to that?

I brought the game home and wouldn't sync up with the dongl... a bit of a buzzkill on Christmas morning. So, I exchanged it and the second board fired right up and we started playing.

After calibrating the board and trying a few challenges.. here's what we decided:

Pros: Um... the board looks cool. It seems well constructed.

Cons: There seems to be a tiny lag in what you're doing on the board to what you're doing on the screen. For example, when you lean slightly to turn, your character doesn't turn right away... so, you instinctively lean a little harder and suddenly your character is turning too much and going in circles! My son quickly became frustrated at this. Also.. I may not be the most graceful guy... but I know how to ride a skateboard. I find it difficult at times to balance on the thing. I played on a well worn area rug... but I think it would work best on heavy carpet. I can't imagine playing on a hard surface (they give you sticky fabric pads to stick to the bottom for this). I'm surprised I didn't see a hundred disclaimers saying that Tony Hawk isn't responsible if you fall and crack your head on a coffee table.

I wouldn't recommend this to anyone... not unless there's some sort of update pushed out by Activision to correct the board's sensitivity issues.

I bought this game for my nephews skateboard fanatics.

After many hours on X-mas day trying to get the thing "synched" or "calibrated", they had to give up.

It simply would not work at all.

Quite a bummer!!

To Amazon's credit, however, they make returns amazingly easy.

We'll see how long it takes for the refund.

I got this Game for Christmas and was really pumped to plug it in and play. I grew up with tony hawk games playing all of the original games through High School. This Game is far from what the old games used to be. when i first heard of Ride i thought to myself this is a great concept i figured it would bring an aspect of the Wii to my playstation 3 but i was Wrong. The board Sucks, the gameplay is Terrible and everything about this game is ridiculous. This is by far the worst THPS game to ever be released. Its a real shame becuse this game has alot of potential. Some of my bigest gripes with RIDE are No 2 player mode(other than online), No option to play the game without the RIDE board. Bring back some feeling of the old school tony hawks 1-3 those are still the best ones. anyways I hope this review was helpful save your $120 and buy a used Wii for $30 more you will be far more satisfied.

The chick at gamestop mentioned that the headphones required batteries that alone should of made me second guess my purchase, but sadly I did not. Got home unboxed everything. Get the headphones, no instructions how to insert batteries. Took some time and finally noticed a grove on the Right side of the headphones lifted it and the one of the latches broke, turns out you need to twist it off counterclockwise. So put in batteries and and played music for about 3O seconds before the speakers blowout and all I hear is a white nose that goes on and off constantly.

You get a soundtrack, headphones, the game and an online code. The headphones aren't extremely fancy or the strongest in the world, but they are good, and the auto-tune is alright. The soundtrack has no real songs, but more of the start-up music, the music when they're first robbing the bank, that kind of music. Do buy if you want to play a game that's GTA on hardcore drugs, don't buy if you're concerned about censorship, violence, or otherwise.

Just bought PS3 Dangerous Hunts 2013 for my son for Christmas. There is no way that I can see to calibrate the gun. So you can't "point and shoot". Takes too long to aim. Very frustating. Probably just wasted 79 bucks. I'm using it on a 55" Sony. Seems to work a little better the farther away I stand, but I went back 12-14 feet and it was still way off, and that's as far away as I can get.

Have read the same complaint on several forums. Wish I would have read them before buying it...

Out of the box the led power indicator for the sensor bar was malfunctioning. A resistor fell off the board probably during shipping, and was rattling inside the housing, so I had to solder it back on.

No calibration for the gun what so ever. Innacurate, laggy, and the heart beat sensors are really pissing me off. Sometimes it takes more than 30 seconds to get lock on an animal despite holding both sensor pads firmly and not freaking out during that time.

Swithched back to the original PS3 controller and all is well.

I feel that the game should have been Move compatible, or, at the very least, not being sold at a premium price just because it comes with a paperweight gun.

The game is pretty good with solid graphics and gameplay overall.

If Activision would release a patch for the game to add a calibration menu, and loosen up on the heartbeat sensor zoom requirements, I'd gladly buy another. But as it stands right now, it's a turd that needs polishing and never should have been released in its current state.

I spent $70 on this item and I must say it is absolutely not worth the money. The gun is horrible and hard to control the game with. If there was a way to calibrate the gun so you could actually aim with it then I would give the game a higher rating, but since you can't adjust it, don't buy the game. Really isn't all that fun to play.

The game is bad only basic elements of real hunt... with same success instead of animals could be zombies you should fight back waves of ugly animals attacks shouting crazy like in DOOM. The gun is terrible, operates through chip plactic sensor operating with 2 AA batteries which plays role of move sensor was it so difficult to do the gun which will operate through regular PS3 moove sensor why invent a new wheel? Good calibrartion is impossible, VERY USER UNFRIENDLY !!! Now I use ussual dualshock works much better. But the game is a BIG frustration, The Gun is a Huge frustration. Kids wanted to return but "Toys R Us" does not take software back. I`m surprized that ACTIVISION did this S..T

If I have to see another Limbo I'm going to rip my own head off. This game was to do a remake of Dante games and failed epicly. Some people like it but gamer's like me hate it. The enemas attacks are the same over and over. Dante and Virgule character and relation ship reminds me of a bad reunited Disney movie.The remake of the characters are just awful and stupid. The game play is okay. The story is the only good thing in this game. The weapons are nice but Envy and Ivory are useless. Every time I play this game I get a really bad headache. The whole thing is a mess and a pain to play. If you like it? Fine but I don't.

This is an Amazing revamp of this long time series though it has been underselling and getting an undeserved bad rep from bias fans... I'm a long time DMC fan myself and I had my reservations about the new Dante but giving it a chance really played off.. The changes fit into the new story and without giving anything away, as the game progresses I think hardcore fans will be pleasantly surprises by some changes he undergoes.

This game has Tons of replay value with unlock-able modes, hidden missions and concept art. The revamped battle system lets you switch between weapons on the fly and use them to string together insane new combos and the style rating system is a blast, rewards creativity and makes you want to replay levels to outdo yourself and others online. With the new DLC's longtime fans can get the costume and hair from the Dante of old or several other possibilities if they just can't get past the new punkish look he sports in this game.

This fresh spin on the series has great visuals and a very cool gritty urban art style, a fantastic story and polished to near perfection game-play that never ceases to be fun and engaging. While it's a reboot of the series it retains the spirit of what made the original series so great and improves it with a deeper story, fighting mechanics and replay value with loads of extras. In my opinion I would say that this is the best DMC to date...

If i had anything negative to say it would only be that some of the dialog could be dialed back a bit..

I bought this as a cheaper alternative to the Sixaxis, as I'm sure others have. On all games it disconnects every couple of minutes and you have to reconnect manually. I contacted Dreamgear and they asked if I had wireless internet, cell phones, or cordless phones in my house. I thought they were joking! I challenge them to find ONE Playstation 3 owner that doesn't have at least one of these technologies in their house. I am currently waiting on more info from Dreamgear to see if they can solve this problem. I will update my review if they do, otherwise spend the extra for the Sixaxis.

UPDATE: Dreamgear offered to repair or replace the controller if I ship it to them at my cost. Amazon has replaced it once already and I still have the same issues. I am returning it again to Amazon for a refund. Very disappointing.

Okay, this controller is really, really awful. It's beautiful (easily the prettiest controller I've ever owned), it's a really unique idea, and it's bizarre behavior can lead to fun and eventful things during gameplay (none of which will be within your control). We tried playing Little Big Planet with this controller and it turned our Sack Person into a tiny little spaz. There is something wrong with the Gyroscopes in ALL of these controllers (I've tried a couple and it's always the same problem). When used with Little Big Planet it makes your guy look like his seams are ripping apart and you lose control over one arm and one leg you have to play like a stroke victim!

Of course, watching our sad little Sack Person try to jump and swing and move things around in this sad condition was great fun We laughed and laughed and screamed "TIIIMMMMYYYY" as the spazzed out little sack boy attempted to make his way through each level. The controller was great for group fun (give everyone else a normal controller and one unfortunate person has to struggle through the game with this one) but as an actual useful device this thing sucked.

One of the questions most people will have is: is the Move Navigation Control required to play the Move? The quick answer is--not right now. I'll put it another way: I ordered one with my Playstation Move Starter Bundle. After playing 5 different Move games and demos, it's still unopened in the package. My guess is it'll stay that way for a while.

The Move Navigation controller is really just a Dualshock controller that's designed to fit in one hand more comfortable. As with the Dualshock, it has a joystick, four directional buttons, and the most commonly used "X" and "O" Playstation buttons all within easy reach of your thumb.

Sony designed the Move controller (wisely IMO) not to have a joystick nor directional buttons. That makes it simpler and more elegant, but it also makes certain things (such as scrolling through a menu list of options) awkward to do with the Move controller alone (although not impossible--you can navigate through menus using the Move controller alone by pressing and holding the Trigger button and moving the controller up, down, left, and right).

But so far I've found so far that just holding the Dualshock in my left hand and controlling the buttons and joystick with my left thumb is sufficient, if a little clunky, for most of what I need to do (unless you have freakishly long thumbs the "X" button will be hard to reach--but happily, pressing the "Move" button on the Move controller will do what you need in most cases).

I'd assumed that like the Wii Nunchuk the Navigation Controller would have motion control built-in so you can control the on-screen action with both hands. It doesn't. For games that require motion control using two hands, you'll need to buy a second Move Controller. Most games that support two-handed operation will also provide the option to play one-handed, but I strongly recommend getting the second Move Controller, as it makes the experience truly immersive. Gladiator Duel on Sports Champions is a great example.

As new games are created for the Move I'm sure the Navigation Controller will become more useful, especially with FPS-type games where you need to move and shoot at the same time. But if you're looking to save a little money, I'd recommend holding off on the Navigation controller for now and spending the money on a second Move controller instead until you find a game that really needs it.

This was originally titled the "sub-controller" and that was much more fitting. Sony is somehow getting away with charging $30 for half a dual-shock. Only, it's not really half a dual-shock as it features NO RUMBLE. So, you're getting half a six-axis, right? NO. There is NO motion control feature included for your $30. This, to me, is the most disgusting thing about the Move setup, especially considering you REALLY DO need the navigational controller for games like RE5 and Heavy Rain (you can play with half a dual-shock, but it gets to be very uncomfortable very fast).

I can almost guarantee Sony will add rumble to the navigational controller within the next 6 months (probably prior to the release of Killzone 3). So, if you're not a hardcore gamer, I'd wait. If you ARE and you REALLY want to use motion control on RE5 and Heavy Rain, I would recommend this, albeit reluctantly at this price.

Is there anything wrong with the controller? Not really. It's well designed and mostly comfortable. The bumper button is too close to the thumbstick, which can lead to numb fingers and a sore wrist, but if you don't have large hands, this may not be a problem. Sony just needed to add either motion or rumble or both to justify this price. Nintendo charges $19.99 for their sub-controller (IE "nunchuck") and it has motion control.

The navigational controller would be priced right at $19.99 with rumble. Or at $9.99 as it currently is. Better yet, Sony could have included it in the starter pack and made everyone happy.

Holy PS3 accessories :)

The Navigation Controller is Motion Controller's (aka 'the Move') natural complement. It is not a 'must buy' at this time but it helps to have one for certain games where it's meant to be operated with 'the other' hand. If you don't have one, you can get away with a DualShock or a Sixaxis.

To make an informed decision on whether a purchase is warranted at this time (or ever) it's important to be aware of the following:

At the time I am writing this, not too many 'Move' games need the Nav. Probably because, one week after Move's official launch there aren't too many Move games out there but that will change I just ordered Heavy Rain which does use the Nav and I've had Little Big Planet 2 on order for quite a while.

There is nothing that that Nav can do that your DualShock or Sixaxis can't. In fact, the Nav Controller is nothing but the left side of the DualShock 3 plus the X and O buttons (PS button too) and minus rumble and motion sensitivity. You can, therefore, use your DualShock instead of the Nav on games that may require it.

These being said, the Nav is a well-designed, quality built accessory that does what it's supposed to do very well. It may not look like much but holding and using it feels 'natural' and all the familiar controls are easy to reach even though it may take a little practice to get used to the unexpected but necessary O and X. And, of course, the Nav does NOT come with a wrist strap because it does not need one. The Nav Controller will not be used to hack and slash or punch or parry. As its name implies, its main use is for 'navigation', meaning mostly the analog joystick, but the L2/L3 triggers and the D-pad are also there when needed in Aragorn's Quest you use the L2 to raise the shield.

Rating the Nav controller for what it is and what it does, I find no faults with it whatsoever. I appreciate its exceptional design, quality and its apparent durability. Some of the early Move games that take good advantage of the Nav Controller include Heavy Rain, MAG, Aragorn's Quest at the time of this review, Little Big Planet 2 coming up in a couple of months, many in between, I hope. To the extent that the Move proves itself a success with game developers, the Navigation Controller will find its uses and its users. I believe it to be so because holding the DualShock in one hand while swinging the Motion Controller with the other is not a good way to play a game.

while not vital to having fun with Move, it is a heck of alot more comfortable than the DualShock3 controller in my left hand. Plus side is the button locations and having x and o on the left hand now is a plus for even the most complicated games! Once again i must commend Sony for creating such a COMFORTABLE navigation controller. Thank you Sony :)

The nav controller is pretty much a duelshock rolled into one piece to fit in your hand. everythings laid out nicely and it fits in your hand perfectly. Has the analog stick, x and o button, d-pad, and the L1 and L2 buttons. The L2 feels nice as it has a little curve to it now, so your fingers dont slide off(never had that problem, just heard people complain before) It doesn't take nearly as long to charge compared to the motion controller. Does not come with a strap which I heard people complaining, but you dont swing it. no need to be moving it, so that why theres no strap. Been using it as i play heavy rain, which i really love with the move. Theres about 3 games out right now that youll need this nav controller for, and more in the future. if you want to play RE5, MAG, or heavy rain, then I say go buy this. If not, just wait on it then. All in all, this is a great addition to the controllers and comes in handy.
