Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days Publisher: Square-Enix Developer: Square-Enix Genre: Action RPG Release Date: 09/29/2009 (I just want to apologize for the lateness of this review.

Naruto Shippuden: Ninja Destiny 2 Developer: Takura Tomy Publisher: TOMY Genre: Fighting Release Date: 09/15/2009 This is now my fourth Naruto review that I’ve done for DHGF.
