There's something about reading through five pages straight on a topic that completely throws me off when it's finally my turn to post. But here I go:

Pages back while looking at the link for Babidi, an idea popped in my head. Babidi's Blast 1 attacks could be used to summon his henchmen, who you could control but they would not have any Blast attacks of their own.

All this talks of pre-rendered and designed characters leads me to believe that most of you have given up a character creation system being implemented this time around. If they do provide us with a decent system, character list may be somewhat moot.

I haven't given up. I'll never give up on that. But I'm not holding my breath. :?

LaRésistance! Just the person I was looking for! You can undoubtedly translate French better than Google or Babelfish can. Got two pages for you to check out and, hopefully, clarify the information on.

I would like to post this since no one else has.

This is from Ciel of the Atari forums. This post, to be exact.

Yes.

Yeah, I know, and it was, as far as I can tell, a translation error on our part. Though the information that Ciel confirmed was to be released didn't come out either, yet. Hence why I'm hoping LaRésistance can properly translate all of that information from those two pages.

The French are a race? :?

Anyway, is there any actual information there? As far as I can see it's simply stating what's new (which is nothing we don't know already) and doesn't actually say where they've come up with this information.

The French rants have been pathetic. I can't believe it turned to that because of a common mistranslation!
It's strange this hero thing. Whole lives devoted completely to helping others. For no financial reward whatsoever. Struggling ceaselessly against impossible odds, risking almost certain death to help those in trouble. I...I just hope its not catching, yes?

I was looking forward to that complete list too. :(

I really hope they include Chi-Chi in this one, I had a lot of fun playing her in Chou.

The information came from "Chatari", an online chat between French Atari staff and board members. And actually, they do have some information in there that we didn't have. That's where the info on Seripa came from, where the info on only 1 DB character came from, where the info on Hell being a level came from, the info about no 14 and 15 or complete 'henchmen' sets, etc.
The French rants have been pathetic. I can't believe it turned to that because of a common mistranslation!
Yeah, well, people are idiots. Once they heard 'no complete list' they tuned out the fact that there will be new information and that that bit was just a mistranslation and started frothing at the mouth. :? Even six hours after it was said that the complete list was a mistranslation but new information would be coming people still kept ranting about how it was all just a lie. :roll:

Chi-Chi FTW! >> I don't have SDBZ so I want her in BT3!

So not all the characters will be out? That's okay, at least we can still discuses the last few spots and who is going to take them.

Don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but the official site is up now (more than just a teaser, that is). Oozaru King Vegeta!

*smacks Spike*

I just checked there earlier in the day to see if there was anything there beyond the teaser and there wasn't. Stupid Spike! You're supposed to replace the teaser with the site BEFORE I check, not after! :evil: Damnit, now I have to wait until YouTube's finished loading my show before I can investigate....

He uses them as a rush attack, I think. Here are some screenshots.

Wow I guess this is 18's cover debut and Kuririn in Buu arc outfit as well as Son-Goten and Chibi~Trunks, is this the actually orignal japanese artwork?

I have an odd feeling that this game is gonna be even more expolsive, if so, Cool cause I'm so content with the second one i can only imagine what this is gonna be like!
I thought 18 was on one or two other covers....but hopefully this means some of the more overlooked characters will have more of a role in the actual story.
OK, so I'm really late mentioning this, but I FINALLY remembered :lol:;
18 has previously appeared on the cover of the Japan and Europe version of Super DBZ.

Edit: Oh, and Legacy of Goku II.

Babidi in this game sounds so sweet! I can just imagine him taking over people's minds at a whim in play for a while and then just beating the crap out of them...

Ah... good times...

They don't expand, apparently.

But sweet monkey mayhem, that's an awesome picture.
