I just got the game as well...so if you have a GameStop/EBGames near you, call them. They should have it.

EDIT:

I've sat down and played it for a bit...and youch. What happened here? The controls are wonky (whats up with the Smash attack being assigned to motion controls? They were fine with just the "A + Control Stick" in Neo.) and Online...uh...that can be summed up in one word:

LAG.

What's up with the manual? It says I can customize my controls but all I get is either "Normal" or "Simple" options, no "Custom" option like it says in the book.

I'd just play with a gamecube controller if I were you guys.

Another good amount of special dialogue, this time, they really improved in the little things. And unimproved on the big things... All the Ginyu Force quote with Great Saiyaman was very funny. Roshi and Chi Chi was good too. But the Zarbon Transformed vs Freeza...

Freeza: Oh my, you really let yourself go.

Zarbon Transformed: Freeza, your mine now!

Sure Zarbon...

Yeah, I had to switch to GameCube because I just could not pull off Goku's one-handed Genki Dama.

Nice touch: If Piccolo is in a tournament, he's listed as Majunior.

Supreme Kai is also called Shin in tournaments too.

Here's some special post battle dialogue. At the first of the video he put some more pre-battle dialogue that he forgot before.

At a friend's I yesterday noticed that they still not fixed some voice bugs!!
For example Gohan (Adult) normal and his Ultimate (Kamehameha).

Like before he has the same stupid bug (english version) with only saying "KAMEHAME" when he shoots (instead of the normal "KAMEHAME" before and "HA" while shooting).

I mean, how can you possibly miss that for 2 or 3 games in a row? O_O"

Having flipped through the booklet, I can't help but notice that in the credits section, Brice Armstrong--the guy who does Ginyu and Slug--is listed as also playing Arale's father, Senbei (or as they spell it, Senbi). *smacks forehead*

Though at least they gave both of them their full names, points for that, I really was not expecting to see "Norimaki."

Brice Armstrong was Senbei, huh? That's pretty neat. However, out of curiosity, who is it that plays Arale?

GameFAQs says it's Brina Palencia.

Yajirobe's dialog to Piccolo Daimao FTW.

I'd say Dragon Sim is FUCKING BROKEN.

As Goku Mid, with relative ease I was able to sustain max stats until the bout with Super Perfect Cell, in which I was reduced to 3 attack and 7 defense.

Same happened with Ultimate Gohan, except on Perfect Cell, and with SSJ4 Vegeta, except it was on the first fight, in which I had 0 attack and defense.

It's a broken piece of shit. After training once, ever, any other kind of training drops your stats, and Bulma appears way too fucking often, and I don't give two shits about Mission 100, and don't want anything for it. It's like trading aids for syphilis.

Dragon Sim is pretty crappy but I suppose once you have done it a few times and unlocked all of mission 100 you don't really need to do it again, Unless you need the money that is

Personally I cheated for the Z Points to enable all slots and buy all items in shop and could easily cheat for the rest of the items that aren’t in the shop but I’m gonna earn those through finishing the BT1&2 tasks and do 50 missions.

I picked up my copy from Gamestop this morning. (I've had it preordered for 2-3 months.)

My camera is horrible, but that should be good enough. Anyways, the Wii+nunchuk controls are pretty confusing as many of you previously mentioned..I'm starting to get the hang of the controls, but I'm going to try out the GC/Classic Controllers later. Story mode is pretty boring. Other than that, I don't really have a problem with the game. They added a ton of new costumes, characters, levels, and wi-fi. It's pretty solid.

Thanos6 · Post by **Thanos6** » Sun Dec 02, 2007 1:06 am

And yet somehow neglected to give Cell/Buu Vegeta or Mirai Trunks anything but palette swaps, and left little Trunks with that horrendous orange gi for his alternate. *shakes head*

Smooth Criminal · Post by **Smooth Criminal** » Sun Dec 02, 2007 2:31 am

Finally picked up the American version. (Have been playing the JP version for over like 2 months almost)

The translation is pretty fucked. There are spelling and grammar errors all over the place. But at least now I'll know what Chi Chi is saying in the Encyclopedia section.

Funny stuff.

One other thing I noticed, in the character section for BT2, both the English and Japanese voice actors are listed for each character. But in BT3, only the English Voice Actor is listed. Hm. Kind of a smack in the face.

Thanos6 · Post by **Thanos6** » Sun Dec 02, 2007 3:12 am

Heh. Last night, the first round of Goku/Freeza in story mode was giving me absolute fits. Could barely touch him at all.

Tonight? I just absolutely thrashed him, first try. He didn't even take off a whole bar of life from me and I never even triggered a cutscene...didn't even bother with the Genki Dama...heh...weird.

Yet, they did take the time to list the Japanese voice actors in Tenkaichi 3's instruction booklet, which Tenkaichi 2 didn't do.

Has anyone discovered the super broken move "Blazing Storm" that "Syn Shenron" has? His version is quite different from Nappa's "Blazing Storm". I think this move could be exploited to GREAT use in online play, especially due to the lag issue. It's harder then hell to avoid legitly, during a laggy battle? You don't have a snowball's chance in hell to even begin dreaming that you can dodge this move.

This video was capped by me playing on very strong against 5 custom CPU. I was playing with my ps2 hooked directly into my capture card, along with writing the battle to my harddisk as I played it. Needless to say, the controls vs video display was quite lagged, and still I pulled that off without any kind of real effort. Broken move = king of the game.

Really wish I had a wii. Someone with wifii give syn shenron ki power + 3, Lunch's support, and then the one Evil-Type blue potora that gives super+3 and attack -2 or w/e. That setup and just spam blazing storms. LOL I bet anything you dominate any vs human online match.
