Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations

[SeriousMarius]

Are there any plans to port Generations?

[Royalty]

People liked Generations???

There are a ton of people who find Generations as the best of the Storm games. This is not the case for me, however (Storm 4 fit my play style so much that it instantly became my favorite), but I wouldn't mind getting a port of it just so I can have it as well on PC and complete the collection, but I doubt it.

Honestly, with exception of the sub bar and the replay system I like to pretend Generations never existed.

Like you said, I'd get it for completion's sake but that's about it.

I wish there were plans for Generations. It's the most competitive one without being overly campy. Looking at you, Storm 3.

if you think storm 3 is better than generations you have no clue what you are talking about. as for revolution and s4 and storm 2, those are all completely different games that really should not be compared to one another.

I think a few thousand hours into the series kinda allows me to say that I think STORM 3 is better than Generations.

Well how about we do a first to 10 wins on storm 3 then? If u win then your opinion on this topic is valid.

My opinion is valid regardless of whether I win or lose, because it's my opinion.

But you were trying to say it is more valid because of your hours spent in the game, if you want to prove that then you need to win

My hours spent in the series does entitle me to say that I've played enough of both games to know which one I think is better. I don't need to prove anything, and beating you doesn't prove it regardless.

It actually does, if u beat me then it's obvious you have more knowledge in the series.

Well if u won't play against me, can u at least explain your reason for storm 3 being better than gen?

1. I don't need to have "more knowledge" to have an opinion that differs from yours. I have enough knowledge about the games to know that I can decide which one I like better.

2. You're not like some "benchmark" to prove if somebody is "good enough". What if you're not as good as someone else who has played as much as you? What if you're naturally good at fighters and thus better than others who put the same amount of hours into the game? Beating or being beat by you doesn't prove anything.

3. I've 100%ed the game (twice), I've fought and beat the developers of the game (three times), and I've had respectable matches with some of the top players of the series past and present. I've done plenty to show that I'm experienced with the game, I don't need to do anything more.

You don't get to decide that someone's "opinion is invalid" based on your own preconceived requirements. That's not how opinions work. You're perfectly welcome to say that Generations is better than STORM 3, and I wouldn't tell you that you're wrong, because that's how opinions work. Just like how I'm free to prefer STORM 3 to Generations.

Great answer to avoid actually talking about the mechanics of either game, that was very well done indeed.

Now this is more reasonable.

1. I prefer the character/mechanic balance. The stuff that annoys me in STORM 3 (certain instant awakenings, for example) annoys me less than the stuff that annoys me in Generations (certain exploits, tilt cancels, and an item that literally lets your opponent one-shot you most of the time).

2. I much prefer the story mode. Generations just felt like a recap, whereas 3 felt like you were advancing the plot (though I still think 1 has probably the best story mode)

3. I liked the additional costumes in 3. It's a minor detail but I like them.

4. The roster. There were a few characters in 3 that I really wanted in Gen but didn't get.

I haven't played STORM 3 for about 2 years (and Generations for even longer) so that's all I can recall off the top of my head.
