Tips & Warnings

• Save on shipping and maximize discounts by purchasing the guide and the software from Amazon at the same time, in a single order. However, leave the video game in its sealed package until you look at the guide, so that you will be able to return the video game if you decide that you don't want it.
• Do not purchase "Naruto: Rise of a Ninja" unless you have or will be getting an Xbox 360, because this video game cannot be used with any other video game or computer platforms or devices. Once you open a sealed software package you won't be able to return it.
