I could be wrong, but I don't think there's going to be any knew movie characters.... I was hoping for Android 15 myself....

Well, the Atari official site says there's characters from the DB movies...

http://www.atari.com.au/games/overview.do?id=975

The site wrote:90 unique characters with over 150 forms, including many new ones from DB, DBZ, DB GT and DB movies!

(My emphasis added)

So unless we get Gurumes or Lucifer...

And yes, I misread the Hatchyack thing at first until I saw the cleaned-up version later.

Budokai 3 was, and still is, the best DBZ game so far.

and dont even bring up Super DBZ cause that was just a good acrade fighter for the hell of it for no reason.
No reason? The fans were demanding a game like that. I still haven't played it myself, but it's definately on my list of games to get.

DBZ is anything but character unique havent you seen the show!!! characters dont have any paticular type of fighting style other than special traits, trademark ki attacks,weapons and strecth limbs etc., there just all good a fighting and have incredible battle sense and thats it!!!
Actually, the do have individual fighting styles. Granted, this is far more evident in the tournaments of DB than the street brwals of Z, but it's still there.

Budokai 3 Graphic?! you joking right???!!!......please dont bring us back to the "BLOCKY" ASS HELL!
BT and BT2 are 10x blockier than B3. I don't know what game you're playing. B3 is still the best looking DBZ game out there. Better cel shading and better model designs. (Seriously, what the hell is up with Goten's head in the BT games?)

And B3's auras cant hold a candle to Sparking Neo's, B3's auras are cool but they look like 16-bit sprites! Sparking Neo's are smooth and flow with motion, and they dawm sure aint got nothing on Sparking meteors improved auras.
Wrong again. BT1/2's auras are extremly crappy. B3 wins here once again.

The sparking series starting from Neo is what a DBZ game is supposed to be like IT WAS "THE" OFFICIAL DBZ EXPERIENCE! AND CANT NO ONE! can say different!,
I can say different. BT2 was fun, sure. A lot better than the first game, but still not on par with B3. Maybe a little better than B2, but no, not as good as B3. BT3 has a chance to be the best but only if it improves on BT2 as much as BT2 improved on BT1.

On a side note, you really need to watch your grammar. You don't need more than one exclamation or question mark, you have comas where they're not needed, missing apostraphes, and just really bad structure in general. Very annoying. Oh, and capitilizing one word for emphasis is one thing, but you don't need to shout entire sentences.

I really doubt this, why would they be revealing all of the new charicters months and months before the game is released?
From what I heard it's not the characters they want to tantalize us with this time, it's the new story. Of course, this is from the same rummor as the French Atari site listing the characters on Monday, so.... yeah. But they've given us 5 already so I really wouldn't be suprised if they gave us all of them and then started releasing small bits and peices of the new story and new modes to draw people in. At this point in the series' life new characters aren't really the great draw they once were. It's new play modes and originality that'll draw in the buyers now.

OH! Please! B3 will never be the best Dragonball Z game, thats just absolutely RETARDED AND UNLOGICAL!!! considering its limitations the only thing Dragonball Z about it was the teleporting and THATS IT!, it "DID'NT" offer the experience that Sparking neo and Soon Sparking meteor has to offer!, somtimes i wonder that some of you dont have got your prioritys straight???, you bunch of bitches can never be pleased cause you really... DONT KNOW WHAT HELL YOU WANT!!!, It always this and that.....this and that! I mean be reasonable ITS A GAME!, RELAX! and saying that new character are'nt enough to draw in buyers is bullshit cause then you condradic the entire gaming industry when clearly that not the only thing going on with this game, they are offering more that characters that would just be stupid if they didnt!

And I played Super DBZ years before it came out........its called STREET FIGHTER! it wasnt anything innovative (except for mecha freeza and chi~chi) to even be brought up

Your grammar is "unlogical".

Cure-Black wrote:considering its limitations the only thing Dragonball Z about it was the teleporting and THATS IT!

...Or maybe the unique character concepts, story modes, close-or-beam combat, sidesteping away from beams, dragon rushes, Japanese goodies...

Cure-Black wrote:it "DID'NT" offer the experience that Sparking neo and Soon Sparking meteor has to offer!

Of course it didn't. The first three Budokai games were more "Street Fighter" style camera angling and limitations, while Sparking did away with that. But that's what makes them unique.

Cure-Black wrote:somtimes i wonder that some of you dont have got your prioritys straight???

Sometimes I wonder if your priorities are just whining at other people because they aren't like you.

Cure-Black wrote:you bunch of bitches can never be pleased cause you really... DONT KNOW WHAT HELL YOU WANT!!!

Yes we do. We want you to shut up and get over it. It's your opinion, and probably no one else's.

Cure-Black wrote:It always this and that.....this and that! I mean be reasonable ITS A GAME!, RELAX!

You should relax, man. And turn off the caps lock.

I understood up to "condradic" (which I question it's meaning), but then I think you lost your train of thought.

Sorry for the lack of formal introduction guys, but this guy was just pissing me off.

Dude, do us all a favor and shut the flying pfargtl up. I like BT more than b3. I will not bother contesting claims that one is better than the other... because that's just my opinion. You, Cure-black, are an asshole. Go away, or behave.

What's retarded and illogical is how you think that opinions that differ from yours should be considered definitively wrong and dismissive, essentially insulting Xyex and others for no reason by saying the immature crap you do. You need to seriously deflate that ego of yours, buddy. I personally am kinda split on which is better between Budokai 3 and NEO, but in the end, I think I'll always end up with B3 as my favorite. Maybe Meteor will top B3 from my point of view once it's released, who knows. For the time being, you have no authority to say what game is the "best" in the context of being a fact, in the end it's just your own opinion, one that means just as much as how one feels after killing a spider. At the risk of being misinterpreted, get over yourself.

I said that the background looks good. The thing that looks weird to me is the character.

Nice work there. I can see that you're going to fit right in here, unlike Cure-Black.

Anyway, I'm greatly looking forward to this game. Although we NEED more DB characters. Blue, Black, Kid Krillin, Pre-scar Yamcha, Chi-chi, Ox King, maybe a few Budokai entrants or Baba warriors, heck if we've got Babidi... Why not chuck in Tsuru-sennin?

Humpski · Post by **Humpski** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 1:43 pm

Hey everyone look at who shows up when you use Babidi's blast moves!

gohanku · Post by **gohanku** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 1:52 pm

Okay, let's just ignore trolling guys, by looking through the thread, I say that Babidi is my new favorite character, next to my spiced-up Mr Satan from BT2. And big oh muscle guy, looks really over the muscle limit, he could give Broly a run for his money. They did say OVA, so maybe Hatchyack might be in it... Chi-chi for DB character! So, what they are saying is, that there is no Wii-exclusive characters? Nice.

fps_anth · Post by **fps_anth** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 2:25 pm

Heh, that's interesting. Yakon and Pui Pui appear everytime Babidi does a beam. So, they aren't separate characters...

Ex-Dubbie369 · Post by **Ex-Dubbie369** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 3:41 pm

I really hope that Chibi Kuririn is the DB character. I know there are others, but he seems like the most important to include IMO.

Oh, and Cure-Black, stop trying to force your opinions on everyone else. Your opinions are not fact. We are all entitled to our own opinions about what game we think is the best, has the best graphics, etc. If you fail to see that and fail to type like a human being, please leave and go fuck yourself.

XDDDDDDDD

*ehem*

They meant movies with that. They don't even know who Hatchyack is so there's 0 chance of him showing up.

Well, the Atari official site says there's characters from the DB movies...

Oops, my bad. I'd read the article as meaning no movie characters. Guess it's just no complete henchmen sets. Which means it's likely Wheelo's the only new movie character....

I said that the background looks good. The thing that looks weird to me is the character.

I dunno, background looks the same as always to me. Spopovitch looks badass though. Gonna be so much fun to kick some ass with him.

I really hope that Chibi Kuririn is the DB character. I know there are others, but he seems like the most important to include IMO.

Meh, using regular Krillin for the DB stuff works just fine. Better, in fact, beause he can actually FLY. (God, I hope they removed that falling crap.) We need someone NEW, not another version of someone we already have. Chi-Chi FTW!

Alright, then.

Here are my wanted characters. (in order of priority)

1. Kid Kuririn
2. Lunch
3. Piccolo Daimao
4. Baby (not Baby Vegeta, just Baby)
5. Golden Oozaru Goku
6. GT Goku
7. General Rurido
8. Emperor Pilaf
9. Mai/Shu (can be separate, but I'd prefer if they were like a tag team)
10. Bacterian (Smelly finger!)
11. Bandit Yamcha (alternate costume)
12. Karin
13. General Blue
14. Adjutant Black (robot suit)
15. Toma
16. MORE WHAT-IF FUSIONS

And here's the smaller list of characters I think they should remove (gasp!)

1. Oozaru Kid Goku (just group it under it's own character)
2. Pure Evil Buu (too minor)
3. Oozaru Tullece (it's just like the other Oozarus)
4. Android saga Vegeta (he's basically the same as the Buu Vegeta)

Thanos6 · Post by **Thanos6** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 4:41 pm

Blaze, Pilaf was added for the Japanese and PAL versions of BT2 for the Wii. He had his robot that he fought Goku in after the whole Baba story, and could transform into the combined Pilaf/Shu/Mai mech.

Piccolo Daimao was in that version of the game as well, so we'll 99.999999% be getting all of them in BT3.

Welcome to the boards.

Ex-Dubbie369 · Post by **Ex-Dubbie369** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 4:45 pm

Do you guys think that this time around, Trunks and Vegeta will have GT costumes? People on Atari's forum have been speculating that the GT versions of them will be characters, but I'm gonna assume that if they're gonna be there, it will be as alternate costumes.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if everything GT was scourged, but if they have to be in there, as costumes only, please.

Now, end of DBZ Trunks and Goten (the versions in my avatar) yes please...so yummy.

Welcome to the boards.

If the French information is accurate (we'll know on Monday) then Pilaf, Piccolo, and the 2 Freeza henchman are 100% confirmed and don't count toward the 20 new characters either. The French information says that all previous characters will be included in the new game, and they count as previous characters even though they were Wii exclusve.

Here are my wanted characters. (in order of priority)

1. Kid Kuririn
2. Lunch
3. Piccolo Daimao
4. Baby (not Baby Vegeta, just Baby)
5. Golden Oozaru Goku
6. GT Goku
7. General Rurido
8. Emperor Pilaf
9. Mai/Shu (can be separate, but I'd prefer if they were like a tag team)
10. Bacterian (Smelly finger!)
11. Bandit Yamcha (alternate costume)
12. Karin
13. General Blue
14. Adjutant Black (robot suit)
15. Toma
16. MORE WHAT-IF FUSIONS

1 - Not needed. 2 - Unlikely. 3 - Already in from BT2. 4 - Possibly. 5 - More likely an Oozaru alternate color. (WHY haven't they done this yet?) 6 - Supposedly included (French information) though I don't know why he's wanted.

7 - Very possible. 8 - Alredy in from BT2. 9 - VERY unlikely (only 1 new DB character in the game, according to the French information, and I doubt it'd be her since she's with the Pilaf mech). 10 - Not a chance. 11 - Possible. 12 - Not a chance. 13 - Unlikely. 14 - Possible. 15 - According to the French information, only Seripa's joining from the Bardock team. 16 - Would be cool but highly unlikely.

EDIT
http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/sh ... p?t=592251

If that is to be believed then it sounds like the new cutscenes for the game are acutal footage from the series. That would be cool.

SuperSaiyan3Goku · Post by **SuperSaiyan3Goku** » Sat Jun 23, 2007 6:07 pm

The interview sounds reliable. If all the info is real, this game is goin' on my buying list!

No 14 and 15?

That sucks... The rest sounds awesome!

Also on the forum, there is a video from "Earth's Special Forces", that has Goku transforming into SSJ4. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPQ1nine7XQ This would make a pretty kick-ass cutscene for Goku's SSJ4 transformation in the game.
