Actually no, Pilaf had the crotch rocket.

He might have just been the guy that "midi-fied" the Japanese themes.
I'm 99.9% certain I read it in an article or review or something about the game, that he created the music for the US versions.

If that's true,then why can't we get the Dragonbox in America?
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Well, somebody posted these videos somewhere in the past. Not sure if they're in 720p, but they certainly look better. I think "graphic upscaler" is people call it, but don't trust me on that.

Wheelo did shoot a blast out of his arse though.

I found spelling errors in the encyclopaedia for the voice actor for Teen Gohan and Chi-Chi says something about Slug and the world tournament, During the GT Saga against both Super 17 and Omega SSJ4 Spoke with Kid Goku's voice (English voice, Not sure about the Jap voice)

But apart from those mistakes I’m really enjoying this game.
I'm actually that far as well, and it was only my second day having it! :lol:
(Although I still need to collect all of the Dragon Balls and finish the Tournaments to get the rest of the characters and arenas.)
Next quest: Start collecting Dragon Ball Super Blu-Rays whenever season sets get released. Also the Super Manga!

Fan of Dragon Ball Z and various other Anime since '98! ^^

Maybe it has to do with the US releases including the Japanese track? Japanese fans might just import the US boxes instead of buying the DVD singles.

Oh, I see. Thanks for clearing that up. Is Pilaf playable? Because I've got story mode 100%, and I don't have him yet.

Also, is anyone else dissapointed that you can't select the BGM in Duel mode anymore?

Last time I checked.

Yeah, PS3s with a firmware version 1.80 or higher can upscale PS1 and PS2 games all the way up to 1080p.

I've been playing it on my PS3 at a resolution of 1080i and it looks WAY better compared to playing it at the standard 480i on PS2.

Yes you can, see that little joystick thing in the corner? Keep pressing right until the music title at the bottom of the screen is highlighted.Click it and you can select whatever song you like.

Thanks again, Neptune Kai. XD

I'm glad I can help, though I should be able to help with how much time I put into this game as of late. It's basically been school, BT3 and bed. :lol:

Edit: Am I the only one who finds the World Tour mode the most pointless addition in the game? I must not be getting the point of it or something

Okay, I just played through the parts with Cell in the storyline, and there is NO WAY that that is Norio Wakamoto, his original voice actor, but someone who can sound a lot like him but sucks at voice acting. At least this is what I'm hoping. His dialogue in the fights against Vegeta and Trunks and then Goku and Gohan were bad enough, but still sounded like him, but I just now did the Trunks goes back to his time and fights imperfect Cell storyline battle, and OH MY GOD his voice there was almost not even funny (when he goes "ka... me... ha... me...", that HAS to be a joke) and way different from what imperfect Cell sounded like and makes me think/hope that it could possibly be another VA, despite sounding 100% exactly like him most of the time.

I wish there was a youtube clip of the imperfect Cell dialogue, I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Edit: Hahahaha, I found it on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGgwq2nvvB8 Rofl, it's even funnier the second time.

Strange, Windows Media works just fine for me. Not even DivX? Well, maybe you should try VLC.

God, you weren't kidding. He doesn't sound anything like he did in the series (or the previous game, for that matter). He almost sounds like a comical old man sort of character. Kind of funny and sad at the same time.

To be fair, that's the only part he sounds like that (with the high pitched old man sound), he sounds like Cell in his dialogue that comes before that, except for the fact that it sounds the voice actor is either joking around, a horrible voice actor, or explicitly told not to show emotion or raise his voice. Here is some of the Gohan versus Perfect Cell scenario: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pwp8fjdcLAk . At 3:00 in that video is another laughable part.
