Naruto: The Broken Bond demo breaks to the XBLM

by Dustin Burg on Nov 3rd 2008 10:00AM

Available for download off the Xbox Live Marketplace is a 765MB demo for Naruto: The Broken Bond. A game demo that we're sure you've been eagerly anticipating in the wake of all the blockbuster Xbox 360 titles releasing this Fall.

Here's a fun fact: Did you know that The Broken Bond will support 30 different Naruto characters and be the first and only Naruto game on a gaming console to feature online multiplayer? Did you also know that we spend too much time researching The Broken Bond in an effort to lengthen this blog post? Well ... we did.

[Thanks, yanya]

First to include online multiplayer? Not exactly considering its prequel Rise of a Ninja had it, although i never got a chance to experience it online cuz i refuse to pay 50 bucks for gold when i already pay 30 for dsl.

You pay $30 a year for DSL? deal-o-rama!

Not really hyped for this one, the PS3 "Ultimate Storm" looks very promising.
Too bad it'll require a HDD install. =/

Also, didn't one DS or PSP version of the game support online mode(s)?

Although im getting Ultimate Ninja Storm (as im convinced will be better because Cyber Connect is behind it) too, I can vouch for this game and say that the first one was GREAT for a Naruto game, and the demo for this one is even better than the first! ps. My little bro is gettin this so ill still play it on my 360 when hes finished:)

I thought the first Naruto game for 360 had online. Because I remember it being in the menu when I played it. I will probably pick up broken bonds and ultimate ninja storm. I just need my PS3 for the second one.

The first and only naruto game to feature online multiplayer? Either your research failed or you meant to say something else. Sorry, but the sequel to this game had online multiplayer. naruto rise of a ninja.... just clearin that up a bit

considering this game hasnt come out yet, where do you live if you have the sequel? by reading your comment you must not be taht bright and so just letting you know the word you were looking for is PREQUEL.

thats what i meant, it was enough to get my point across am i right? oh no, lets badger on about typos, "taht" is always fun.

Actually Naruto: Rise of the Ninja had online multiplayer as well. Thought I'd point that out.

I'm buying this regardless... but I'm still excited for a demo! I can't wait to try this when I get home!

The first one was killer! I loved it. Looking forward to this one!!!! I prefer Action/Adventure over Fighting games so I'll enjoy this one over the PS3 fighting game.

I loved the Naruto Rise of Ninja but it's multiplayer incredibely sucked. The Clash of Ninja series for the Gamecube and the Wii was way better since it involved 4 players.

i already tried it, and i can believe it! oddly enough, naruto doesnt say the famous catch-phrase in the demo and the inclusion of japanese voice overs in the demo is nice touch.

this demo was online like last week i think on saturday actually. getting a lil slow with reporting this. lol

yea, i thought so too, but they dont post much stuff during the weekends, only things like store deals for games (gears of war 2 with free *something*)

I really enjoyed ROAN and I am looking forward to this one it will be a great game sadly American's don't like anime and manga as much but you do find a lot of people here and their, I personally do and I like Naruto.

yep psp ultimate ninja heroes and rise of a ninja had online multi player . rise of a ninja multi player was hard if you did ranked

Wow! Im actually impressed with the demo.... like one person said the Japanese subtitles is a huge plus.. it makes me feel more immersed in the game because its like playing the show as i see it. :]

They have it wrong and they have it right sort of.
Yes, Rise of a Ninja had online multiplayer battles, but TBB has tag team online... so.. 4Players plus some other stuff
