Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
While the franchise has produced several reputable games, there have been a fair few stinkers over the years so which do you think is the worst? I say DBZ for Kinect but that's largely due to the Kinect itself, but the sheer lack of effort and content is also a major factor, plus the PAL version lacks the Super Saiyan headband, which is the biggest fault of all. Shame on you, Namco Bandai.

Taiketsu for GBA.
Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
Oh yeah, I played that one once. Dear Kami it was terrible. I can see what they tried to do with the visuals, make them look like digitised 3D models like classic Mortal Kombat or Donkey Kong Country style but on GBA it doesn't work. The sprites' light effects make them look like dolls that have 8 light sources reflecting off them (Gohan in the Saiyaman costume looks like he's wearing a sequin dress) and 18 looks like she has dreadlocks. The gameplay is just button mashing but who expected anything else from a 4-button licensed fighting game? The music isn't that bad though.DarkPrince_92 wrote:Taiketsu for GBA.

I enjoyed playing DBZ For Kinect so my vote goes to Taiketsu and GT Transformation.

UB22, Taiketsu, and GT Transformations. I was gonna say DBZ Kinect but I actually thought it was okay. All it needed was more stuff and better response.

Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
WTF?! DBZ for Kinect IS the worst period. Stop making these threads. Just put my post in OP, sticky it and lock it.

Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
Never seriously played Final Bout, Taiketsu, or the Kinect game (all of which are very poorly received), and Sagas sucked the mighty oozaru testicles but it's lackluster quality is what made it enjoyable for me so ultimately I'd have to say Ultimate Battle 22. Poor graphics (even for it's time), lack of options, and overly precise controls. The only thing about it that's remotely redeeming is the soundtrack (courtesy of Kenji Yamamoto).

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
Normally I'd say Taiketsu, but at least that game had some charm. It was shit but it was an endearing pile of feces. Ultimate Blast takes my vote.

The Dragon Ball Z Collectible Card Game Game for Game Boy Advance. Boring as hell to play, and I could never figure it out anyway.

If it was anything like the regular card game I'm sure nobody could figure out how to play it.Kamiccolo9 wrote:The Dragon Ball Z Collectible Card Game Game for Game Boy Advance. Boring as hell to play, and I could never figure it out anyway.
Well out of the games I've played this award unfortunately goes to Burst Limit even though I KNOW there are worst games out there. Tenkaichi 1 was bad but I had fun with it during its original run. Burst Limit was so bad I actually went back and started playing Tenkaichi 3 again something I've never done before when it came to the annual DBZ games. Revenge of King Piccolo gets an honorable mention because its probably not as bad as I think it is but I lack the patience to fully play through it because its sooooo boring.
Yes I've played Sagas but I've actually had fun playing that game.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
Aww. I didn't really find the Collectible Card Game on GBA to be that bad. A little limited and would have been better if they'd gotten to refine it in sequels, but it's still fairly fun. I actually learned more about how to play with the actual cards because of that game.
I've mentioned it before I think, but my vote would definitely be Taiketsu. I think it's the one DBZ game that I have not played even once since first getting and playing with it years ago. Even Ultimate Battle 22, Sagas, and finally Final Bout have been played way more recently than that one has. I pretty much have no desire to go back to it either.

Well, I wanted to also say Ultimate Blast but to me that isn't a real game so it was left out of the bunch.Insertclevername wrote:Normally I'd say Taiketsu, but at least that game had some charm. It was shit but it was an endearing pile of feces. Ultimate Blast takes my vote.
Tenkaichi 1 is pretty bad too.

Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
Ultimate Battle 22 and the Collectible Card Game on the GBA. UB22 made me so angry that I return back to Blockbuster in a few hours later and it's the only thing that I rented that I return back so soon. The gameplay is boring, slow and the controls are terrible. The graphics are bad even for a mid 90's video game and the build up mode is so pointless given that it has no purpose since that there's no story mode. The best thing about the game is the intro and soundtrack.
I hate the CCG on the GBA because I hate that there is no tutorial mode. I never played the card game and I was hoping that this game would be easy for people who are new.
At least Yu-Gi-Oh: The Eternal Duelist Soul on the Gameboy Advance had a tutorial mode so that people who never played the card game can learn how play the card game. I also remember that the music in this game is so repetitive. You are going to hear the same multiple music track over and over again.

Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
Of the games I've played, I'd have to say the first Legacy of Goku. Easily one of the worst games I've ever played.
It's successors are pretty good though.

Re: Worst Dragon Ball game of all time?
Legacy of Goku was pretty bad and it was the first DBZ game that I own. I always wish they remade the first game on the DS when they had the chance. The second game was like "Holy crap! I can't believe this is a sequel because it's so good". It's like what Wrath of Khan was to the first Star Trek movie.

Imo, that would have to be Budokai 2 because I didn't like that turned the characters into game pieces on a board game.
