The character shots aren't even really "artwork", so much as models that have been rendered and possibly touched up afterwards. They certainly look a lot better this time around, at any rate. When they said they were touching up all of the models (in whatever interview was posted), I guess they meant it. Even Guldo got a boost in detail. Now if only they could look as pretty in-game..

The models look lovely to me. There's is'nt any real need to make 'em look too detailed to the point they look real. Gotta keep with the source material.

I agree, I just want to see the bridge between the prettied-up shots and the actual in-game graphics close a bit. That said, graphics are secondary to the actual gameplay, so I'm hoping to see more refinements made to the fighting engine, beyond what we've seen so far. Oh, and Dr. Wheelo. Everything is secondary to him being included. :P

All right, I'm here. ChiChi needs either:

1. The Kaioken.
2. A red aura when she powers up.
3. Dominatrix alternate costume.

You people just want to drool over Chi-Chi. That might distract you from the game.

Nah, not from the game, just from the same exact story we've already played almost 10 times. :P

Alright, I was looking through Jump. I dun pay attention nor feel like reading to the thread. Are all these characters known?

Tambourine
Dr. Wheelo
Seripa (that girl from Bardock special)

If not... well you know now. If so... I'm sick and don't give a shit.

Hmm, I thought that even the subscribers in Japan didn't get it until the 19th. That's wierd an import store would get it so early.

Seripa's known (thanks to people paying close attention to the faces in a commercial). Tambourine's part of one of Piccolo's attacks, I think. But Dr. Wheelo's new. :)

Humpski: Not really. It has been like that since and before I started following series weekly. Years it has been.

Awesome, Tambourine means more potential in a DB story mode. And now Seripa's as confirmed as ever. Wait, is that the giant robot Doc I see?

Yes, for the Australian and Japanese Wii versions of NEO/BT2, but he may now be his own fighter in Meteor/BT3.

That's Drum you are thinking, Tambourine is actually one of the fakes.

Anyway, pics? scans? anything?
