Greg/omae no kaasan was reporting back from JUMP Festa that a new Sparking game or something similar might be in the works. Make what you can of what he said.

Well... this is what I've got about Dragon Ball from all of it

(23:20 EST) Dragon Ball Stage started. If he does it like the Luffy/Goku Talk, he'll take meticulous notes and get them down on the board himself in the near future it seems. I haven't heard a word of specifics about the last one.

Greg: "Bulma's Bike is here evidently. This looks bad; they pulled out Akiba Idols to promote Nozawa. What were they thinking?"

(23:33 EST) Greg: "So far I am severely unimpressed. We're listening to airheads talk about some very basic stuff."

"Finally some interesting information coming out. Nozawa thinks Cell is the most frightening villian."

(23:51 EST) Greg: "First game pictures look like DBZ Sparking but with real textures. Bulma seems to be a fighter this time around. They're also giving out door prizes; Movie Tickets, etc. One guest won a role in the dub of the movie." (Live Action Movie?)

(00:05 EST) Greg:"Toriyama left a message to the cast and crew of the movie: He felt surprised when he saw everything but after meeting the cast and crew, he felt they were splendid. He hopes that it will become a new Dragon Ball to be enjoyed and confirms that he is very much looking forward to it."

I think it's the live action movie game. They were talking about the movie after showing the game at the panel, and it would make sense for it to have "real textures", as well as having Bulma as a fighter.

I can't wait for the shit storm for the LAM game.

He said sparking, then mentioned Bulma was a fighter this time around. Which implies that there were previous "times."

But I'm not going to lie and say that I don't REALLY REALLY REALLY want this to be a Sparking game, and that fact may be blinding me from the truth.

He said it looks like Sparking. Why can't the live action movie game play like Sparking?

I'm picturing Sparking-style gameplay, but on a smaller scale. Like Naruto's Ultimate Ninja Storm.

Same here. I can't really imagine having a HUGE landscape for that kind of game. If the landscape were to be as big as Sparking's, wouldn't most characters have to have the ability to fly for it to make sense? And since it's for the PSP, a huge landscape would seem out of place.

Or it could be the Sparking/Sagas hybrid I've been saying would be a good move since the first Sparking game.

Would it bother you if it were formatted like the mini-games in Infinite World?

I wouldn't enjoy that. They were good as mini-games, but they felt way to clunky to play too much.

I think this is just the LAM game, though. Also, when people say "real textures" are they talking in terms of something like the "Street Fighter: The Movie" game?
