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.
WOW :shock: I've never played as Syn Shenron because i just don't like him but my god he's so broken.

Yeah, one of the things they really did wrong...
I wished I could have an online match vs. one of the creators just to use shenron and his broken move to kick their butt using spam-attacks... :P

So, when can we start a Friend code thread for the Wii version? Mine's 1074-9215-2179.

Also, the booklet says that we can customize the controller layout but I don't seem to have the option in my copy. I really don't care for tghe layout of the classic controller. Thgey moved the down dash to "L" and made "ZL" energy charge button. For those of you who don't know, image a Dual Shock with the shoulder buttons lined across going from "R1"->"R2"->"L2"->"L1" and "R2" & "L2" are about the size of the "Start" button.

An don't get me started on the ¡¡¡LAG!!! The first thing I did When I got the game into the Wii was check the online and it was horrible.

But let me go back to Vegeta beating the crap outta me.

Well, I heard this explanation, which makes a lotta sense if ya think about it.
The game isn't supposed to be 'out' now, so the servers hosting the online service might not be running at full capacity.

I've seen some online battles from METEOR, and the speed looked perfect. I'm sure we can expect the same thing when the actual release date comes around. If we don't by then.. then... we're SOL.

Holy cow... That Bliazing Storm is unstoppable... Almost like Future Trunks' (Saiyan Amour) rush.

Heh! If you win the Galaxy Battle/Saiyan revolt What If by using Fasha/Seripa to kill Zarbon, Bardock tells her "We need you to give birth to the next generation." Talk about blunt.

Also: Any clue as to what in the world Akkuman is talking about at the end of his What If?

Really? I didn't really see anything wrong. Granted, my Japanese skills aren't the best(I'm only 3rd year right now)..:S


Did anyone notice how they completely cut Gohan from the cover?

I just added you both.

And the lag seems to have gotten better. Also, I had a six battle run with some dude named "AKIRA" where I was w-4/l-3 and got some Z-points afterwards. Like 50,000 or something.

I know this is a little off topic from the online play subject but....has anyone discovered an easier way, or just some pointers, to doing smash attacks? Those and Air Combo's are the two things I still can't seem to do right. Is anyone else noticing that the timing needed for Air Combo's is different then it was in BT2?

I can consistently dodge blazing storm. Syn Sheron is the final guy in the game, he is suppose to be nigh unstoppable.

I went to Gamestop on Sunday and they only had four. I wonder if they all sold out or if not that many were shipped.

I got the Wii version yesterday for Chanukah. Story mode seems to be handled the best of the three games, but I find the fighting WAY too complicated. It would be nice if the instruction booklet had the GameCube controls to help with the training stages. Hopefully I'll get better as I play the game.

Bardock's been watching her spandex-clad ass the whole time, what do you think he'd be thinking about? :P
