I wonder what the 2/4 means in the video. Probably just saying you can have from two to four players at a time.

The "survival rate" being "2/4" means, to me, that if you're teamed up with another player... well, you've got a 2-in-4 (I suppose 1-in-2) chance of making it out alive.

So it looks like you not only have team battles but also:

A) have a battle royal
B) have 3 on 1 matches
C) or turn on your teammate

The more I look at this game, the more I fall in love. I really want to know how it plays.

New article, translation only really says how it uses the PS3's system, makes me hopeful for at least a PS3 port.

Those graphics really do look amazing, and it looks like it's a really pimped out version of Tenkaichi Tag Team. I hope the gameplay matches.

"...Budokai Tenkaichi et Raging Blast en terme de gameplay"

Damn! Well, with the way the levels work, I'm not surprised but I was hoping for something different. The game looks very pretty and I wouldn't be surprised if it lands on the PS3/360.

The gameplay does look different then the past game, looks more like Legends then the RB or Sparking games if you ask me.

I'm wondering if the game was developed by Spike, because it does look like RB/Sparking but at the same time it also looks totally new. The characters are running and the fights look more stylized(instead of just a bunch of punch and kick animations). I really want to try this game and see where it is going.

This new bit of news really gives me hope that theres going to be a home version. To me it looks like a Sparking style game from the super attacks to the combos and basic movement it just has Spike all over it.Like someone said before its probably Spike+effort(dont get me wrong I'm not baised against them though).

Meh. I thought this game would have a new engine, but it has the same "Outline" as RB and tenkaichi. Not as exited anymore.

I'm sorry to those who didn't want a Sparking style game. In my earlier post, what I meant was I wanted the gameplay to be as good as the graphics, but it came off as me saying that I wanted it to play like Tenkaichi Tag Team. Of course, the game developers saw my post, and it's now a Sparking style game. Whoops!

Wait a freaking minute, the pick where Goku is flying in the air, it looks like hes going from one stage( the grassy plains) to another( the rocky mountains). Could we finally have stage looping? :shock:

"qui reprendra les grandes lignes des jeux Budokai Tenkaichi et Raging Blast en terme de gameplay, vous proposera de combattre dans des affrontements en temps réel jusqu'à 4 joueurs."

This does not mean that the gameplay is the same, it only says that the "big lines" of the game play, or that it will be, "on a grand scale" the same as the Sparking and RB games. In other words, they might not even have played it and are guessing.

That's reassuring. I'm hoping that because it's an arcade, we will see a lot more emphasis on combos.

I hope it's a deeper Sparking game. The style Sparking uses could be really great with character variation. There's already a decent amount of combos.

No more sparkling games! They've sucked for so long now. They need a completely new formula and possibly a new developer.

Hey here's a thought. Now stay with me here... Don't play the games!

If you dislike the games so much, show Spike by not supporting them. If you don't buy them they don't get more reason to make more sequels and you don't have to play it.
If you're not here soon... GET ON!

How can be worry about the gameplay when we only seen parts of the game itself, and I want to see play sometype of demo as well before I judge it. For now, I don't think we can worry about the game yet.
