Naruto: Path of the Ninja 2 - Staff Review
Following up last year’s Naruto RPG comes the next in the series, this time taking things in a slightly different direction.

Persona 4 Social Link Expansion Pack
If you need more Persona 4 goodies, Atlus has them for you on Amazon.com or Amazon.ca. It’s called the Persona 4 Social Link Expansion Pack, and, it includes a Teddie plushie, a Konohana Sakuya t-shirt, a second soundtrack CD, and a calendar to count the many days you’ll be playing the game. The whole package retails for $29.99, but since quantities will be limited, you’ll have to act fast. For clarity, it should be pointed out that this does not include the game. That must be bought separately.
