The Best DBZ Game to Date

I remember playing this game for hours and not get tired of playing it. The moves are way better than the ones in part 2 and the Graphics are way better. I loved how they changed story mode you can fight while the storyline is playing, which is Great. It's hard to get tired of the game since they give you alot to do. Overall, I give this game 5 out 5 stars.

P.S. I Wished they would make this game into a PS3 Version.
 

Its a DBZ game

First off, this is a fairly solid game. I didn't expect it to be Soul Calibur or anything and it definitely wasn't but that doesn't mean it wasn't good. Its about as good as non-Tenkaiichi Budokai 3, but its different enough that it doesn't feel like you were conned out of your money if you already had it. It doesn't have Dragon Rush, which added some to 2-player but against the game, you can pretty much just close your eyes, press your thumb down on all the buttons and whichever it registers is just as well. Also gone is the world map and flying around looking for stuff and I thanked a lot of deities when I saw that. Not that the story mode here is without flaw. There are these long narrations that, when I played, could not be skipped and they're really not that interesting until the GT saga but only because I'm not all that familiar with it.

If I had to say something negative about it other than 'its not really a masterpiece', its that the roster is more padded than a sixth grader's bra. I'm kind of surprised Bra wasn't in it. I know there are a lot of characters in the Dragon Ball universe and each one has at least a couple of fans, but thats not what I mean. For example, theres King Piccolo, Piccolo (early) and Piccolo, three separate characters. I can kind of see Piccolo and King Piccolo being different because I think they're technically different people, but really the difference as far as the game is concerned is sub-negligible. King Piccolo is a little thinner and doesn't wear the awesome cape and turban, but if you choose Piccolo's alternate costume, you can hardly tell the difference. I can't help but think maybe 10-15 characters could easily have been cut and nobody would even notice. Would anyone not buy this game if they found out General Blue and Devilman weren't in it? I don't even remember Arale, she could have been made up by Atari for all I know. Or if they just couldn't cut them, make them alternate versions of one character. All Vegetas are available but they're all in a Vegeta sub-selection and not four in the main one. I know its a minor complaint and it isn't going to stop, but it really does seem like false advertising to claim 'OVER FORTY-SEVEN MILLION CHARACTERS!!!' and there are actually only about fifty. Remember how Mortal Kombat used to be dependent on color-swapping to add characters? Similar deal here.

I bought this game not because I'm a huge DBZ fan, though I do like it some, but just because I wanted a fighting game where you could fight fast, use powers and when you had shown your opponent who rules, you could blow their sorry ass into the next die-mension. This game delivered that. The controls take some time, especially if you're used to non-Tenkaiichi style, but once you've got them down, it becomes pretty useful. The combat takes thought as well as speed and familiarity with a fighter's abilities, which I like. This is the DBZ game I wish I had had when I was really into the anime.

Do I recommend it? Well, it has kind of limited appeal. It is definitely DBZ-ish so if you demand realistic fighters, its probably not for you. You don't need to be a huge fan, but you do need to be at least accepting of DBZ to enjoy it. If you know someone who insists the show is childish or stupid, it'll be an uphill battle to make them player 2. But since you're looking into the game, I'm going to assume thats not a problem for you. It is a fun game so, yeah, I recommend it. I got my copy for $10 used and if they had a How Awesome Is This Game ray (patent pending) and I knew what it was like before paying it, I could have been convinced to pay maybe $15-20. I wouldn't rob a bank to play it, but it was well worth the money.
 

Kamehameha!!!

This game is awesome. If you love DBZ then this is the only game you need. It has 150 characters and the graphics look just as good as the next gen version in motion. The colors and characters are perfect. It is a show simulator and you really do feel like you are watching the show. This game is a love letter to the fans and if you need to get your dbz fix for cheap then pick up a ps2 and buy this game.

Great Game

I bought this game for my 10yr old newphew as a Christmas presents and he can't stop playing it. I mean he literally plays it all night. I personally am not into Dragon Ball Z, but if he likes it, so do I.
 

Excellent

The game was in loke new conditions and it really was. Completely satisfied with the seller and the purchase.
 

Pretty Good

I've never owned any of the other dragonball z games, so I can't really tell you if this one is better or worse.

The game is very fun to play, and the reason I bought it was to play as all the characters. There are so many! The game however only kept my attention for a couple of weeks at most until I kind of forgot about it. If you're going to buy this game, I suggest buying it used for a cheaper price. While it's fun and all, I think there could have been more, the fights start to become a little repetitive after awhile. It's fun to experience the world of dbz though.

4/5.
