Frost Demon all the way. I actually thought of putting in a stupid line in my fanfic explaining that the "Demon" is metaphorical because they're all monsters. :P

I'm surprised there's no release date for DLC Pack 2 yet. I mean, we're already quite into February.

But why Frost Demon? Aside from their pun names, their race has nothing to do with ice...

Which is why I recently started using Freeza's Race on here (well, actually, it was for clarity, but the point still stands). Frost Demon would be my preferred choice for an actual name, solely because the Race has ice-based names.

To be fair, the vegetable people (aka Saiyans) do not have anything in common with vegetables.

Well, being fair. Freeza and Coola have an team attack at Supersonic Warriors 2 named Freeze Storm that summons a cloud of ice that unleashes a snowstorm on the opponent.

I laughed way too hard at this.

That would technically be a racist reason to call them that :P . I like the term Frost Demon, I just hate the idea that it could be used as a name for a race. It's more like a slur than anything.

Hence "stupid". :P

Also, it seems odd that the Hakaishin Invitational stage is only being added in now rather than in the first pack, since that pack was apparently very lacking in content.

I loved that game! So fun, good gameplay, awesome finishing moves and team based attacks and interesting what-if scenarios. I'm waiting for a sequel since 2005 :mrgreen:

Question. Was Masked Saiyan/Bardock designed by Toriyama?

Possibly since the design was originally from Dragon Ball Online, which he did work on.

17 days until February is over, wtf Bandai..
Either they are going to suprise us with the release date like with the first free update or they are just bad at planning..

If they don't realses it in tandem with tonight episode or tomorrow, then I'll be concerned with the lack of update.

Not giving a date of realses and making people wait is not going to encourage buyers. By the time its out most of us will have spent our hard earned gaming cash on something else.

TOM of Toonami gives Xeno2 a 8.5/10
It's not perfect, but it's getting closer to the Dragon Ball Z fighting game fans have wanted.
Citing how there's a lot to do, despite the cheap combos and repetitive storyline.

A flaw of every single other Dragon Ball game. Xenoverse 2 is, as its name suggests, just the second installment and while it repeats elements seen in the first one, it still brings new content as well, which makes it better by a great margin.

Just because it's better than XV1's story doesn't mean it's good, and just because it's a problem in other games doesn't make it any less of a problem in this one. Xenoverse has the time patrol as the perfect excuse for a more interesting storyline, but it doesn't even try to do particularly interesting things, mainly sticking with the basic DB story format.
