Dragon Ball /Z/GT/Super is a children's show and there's nothing wrong with that.

THIS. Movie 8 Broly actually shows some semblance of personality beyond yelling "Kakarot", at least once he transforms.
I wish they'd stop with the Broly wankery, though. Maybe it's what they think fans want? I know a lot of people still believe that Broly's power increases indefinitely and that a lot of people have him as their favourite villain and all, but... it's bordering on spreading misinformation at this point. You could give Broly something like LSSJ3 and he'd still be no match for any of the gods, including God Goku and Blue Vegeta, judging by feats, multipliers and common sense. Goku and Vegeta (and your XV1 CaC, I suppose) should be recognised as the most powerful fighters in the universe. Anything else would be a lie.
Don't jinx things or we'll get God Broly....plz no :lol:
If there was ever a time for him to be in a game. This would be the one. So prepare yourself because any of the DLC has that potential.

They could literally just slap Goku's nose on him and it'd be fine. Don't know why they didn't change it.

Oi oi oi, with the thread jumping 3 pages in one night I thought something big happened. Still no trailer huh?

If we don't get one today, it should be fine. We still have the Tokyo Game Show coming up, surely a trailer and more big reveals will happen there.

Heck, I'd take the Carrot Rabbit mobster over this hulking moron.
Broly's brutality and insanity have no equal. XenoVerse kinda portrayed it, hopefully its sequel builds upon it.
Screaming your supposed archenemy's name doesn't --

You know what? Fuck it.
You should (re)watch Movie 8 if you think that Broly just screams Kakarot.

I think it would translate as in "Heinous Mode" or something close.
I don't know if it is worth mentioning, but they refer to Majin Vegeta as "Prince of Destruction Vegeta".

EDIT: They also say in Broly's description that he's the fighter recognised by everyone as having the highest power in the world.
That term for Vegeta has been used before in the past. It's not anything new, though interesting to see return.
Not that interesting actually, "Prince of Destruction Vegeta" is how he is called in 99% of his appearances in Japanese video-games & merchandise.

Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

You missed his best. It's like having seen DBZ only up to Vegeta getting beaten by Goku, and then he hears guys calling Vegeta the best character ever. Doesn't make any sense for that particular fan, does it?

On another note, the reason Vegeta's nose so big is because he keeps saying he's the strongest in the universe. That's one big, fat, lie. As big as that nose of his.

Is that where the term used in Heroes "King of Destruction" comes from?

P.S. You have extremely good avatar taste. :mrgreen:

I wasn't trying to say Yamcha is a bad character, just uninteresting to me personally. Kind of like Broly is uninteresting to a lot of people, but not everyone.

I don't think we'll get a Gamescom trailer, TGS will probably provide us with a nice sized trailer that will probably go as in depth into the story as they are willing to go and will probably be around the time of the Beta (maybe even an announcement that the Beta starts right then). I just wonder if that will be the final trailer or if we'll get a final "Launch Trailer" in late October after V-Jump, maybe showing off Black and DBS Future Trunks.

Probably. Vegeta is never referred as King though, only the others like Broli, Tullece, Merged #13, Slug, etc are.

And yes, I know. 8)

That is very true about Yamcha, after watching Dragonball again this year you get to see how he use to actually be of importance but never on a winning level because he always would lose. Which is why hopefully one of the DLC should be for DB because of how different it is from Z,GT and Super.

Yamcha is one of the most uninteresting characters in Dragon Ball, ever.

I mean, honestly? TIME BREAKER YAMCHA? Why? ... Anyhow, I am more than interested in what else those scans say. I shall patiently wait for a translation.

Re: Broly is Overrated
Hercule is much, much more overrated.
Whoa whoa whoa! Yamcha is one of my favorite characters actually. Z just fucked him over often.

And I've said this before but, why the hell don't you just go back and watch Dragon Ball? It's the best part of the series.

I'm glad to hear that, because I think he's underrated by some. I just don't personally find him very interesting, but I'm happy that some people do. :P
