Why didn't they cellshade it like the Burokai games?Would look a whole lot nicer and is less taxing on the CPU.

I remember a 007 game for the Super famicom which played like games as final Fight and Double Dragon. However, when you had enough energy, you could transform into a Super Saiyan.

It isn't anything like Super Saiyan. You don't need to be in a fit of rage to transform, you don't get golden hair, your eyes don't change turquoise. Also, while Super Saiyan 2 and Super Saiyan 3 seem to be power ups of the original Super Saiyan form, Super Saiyan 4 is completely different. It is n...

One more thing. Where was Piccolo's Destructive Wave from? Didn't Piccolo Daimao use that? In the Viz translation, Piccolo Daimao refers to a "Demon Ray of Obliteration," (Volume 13, Page 123) but I don't remember him ever using it / yelling the attack name if he did use it. Dimps may hav...

The Japanese producers' thoughts on the FUNimation dub?

Question here. Has TOEI or even Toriyama himself commented on the Americanised version of DBZ? I was just wondering since it seems logical to me that when you have a property like Dragonball you want to see how much it changes in the localization process.

Initially I thought it was just Kaioken: increased power, speed, red aura, and not very healthy for the body (Ki drainage)

Now I know every character can use hyper mode, but you have to admit; it leans towards the art of Kaio....

I don't think that's at all the intention: It looks more like one of Toriyama's run-of-the-mill dog characters, if you observe the distance from the ears. Besides, I severely doubt Toriyama would take anything from Garfield, taken as he's likely not even heard of it. But isn't that Hello Kitty up f...

Wizard of Oz cast => Chapter which begins with Namu crashing in on Gokuu with his Diving X Attack, in the first shot of the whole audience they are seen from the back at the left corner. It looks like Garfield's in the middle of the crowd in this picture. Might be farfetched but I've never seen ano...

[Budokai 2&3] Familiar crowd

While playing in the Tenka-Ichi Budokai stage in Budokai 3(gotta love that music) I noticed that the crowd is build up out of DragonBallfamiliars. Some of you may may have noticed this, but it's pretty cool to have Kaio, Son Gohan(Goku's father WITH bunny mask), Sno, Hachan,Shen/God Mai, Shuu, Pilaf...

As a mythology buff, I have been trying to exactly structure the DBZ mythological beings. Oh, and Jord, you might wanna put other deities like Korin, Enma Daiou, and Kamisama. ^_^ Isn't Korin just a cat who lives nearby Kami ? I mean, he is smart and stuff, but he isn't a god or something? And I my...

Sorry to doubt you but there are so many pepople claiming false facts concerning the Budokai games, I don't beleive anything without a source. Now, who could those secret characters be? Kuriza like Thunder says?...

So when they refer to the deamon realm or world, they really mean a planet somewhere and by deamon I assume they mean evil being as opposed to the idea of deamons being part of hell in a religous sense. I think that's it yeah. After all, there a lot of demons in DragonBall. The original Piccolo was...

Dabura is indeed referred as a Kinf of the Demon Realm. This 'Demon Realm' however is never shown in the animé and problably not in the manga. (I've only seen the animé, japanese and uncut however. As I see it, this realm isn't hell, but a completely different planet like the Kaioshin planet (which ...

It's interesting to see that in Budokai 3 Launch is still constantly looking for Tien and when she finds him, he asks him to stay. Unfortunatly, Tien is always on the move, no matter what he promises her. Still nice of Dimps to include her.

There are indeed many cool alternates in Gokuden 2. One of my favourites osccurs during the nappa battle. You can choose for Gohan to attack Nappa instead of chicken out like in the anime. If you do this, Gohan kills Nappa. Too bad Vegeta kills Piccolo 5 seconds afterwards...

Japanese Budokai 2 passwords+Cell game help

I've recently gotten DragonBall Z 2 for Ps2 and right now I'm wandering in the Neko Majin stage. I've discovered you can input passwords which most likely have been posted in the Shonen magazines. Since I don't have any, doen anyone know where to find them? Wand what do these passwords give you? And...
