Oh
my, yes...
On another note, Roshi has a full-fledged Hawaiian shirt. I must buy this game so I can finally kick ass with a Hawaiian-shirted character.

Looks like a rip-off of Budokai. Interesting nonetheless.

Yes. Because Budokai was SO original and wasn't influenced by ANY OTHER GAMES IN EXISTENCE. It practically invented a new genre of gaming!

Shush rascal!

Take a gander at the poses, and movements the models have; they're exactly the same as the Budokai series'. In any case, I'm still quite interested in seeing how it plays out.

I never undestood the appeal of video games that are based on movies. 98% of them suck.
That's just my opinion, though.
So I guess this means Bulma will be a badass in the film. Not that she wasn't a badass in the manga/anime, but it looks she'll be an active fighter.
Meh, I can deal with that.

Looking kind of Tekken there DB Evolution the game.
I'll probably pick this up just to add to my impressive PSP library of 3 whole games!

They might even have alternate costumes that you know...make them look more like the characters their supposed to be based on!

I completely respect your opinion, and I respect you. I enjoyed discussing this with you, even if I don't completely agree.
If we're all here for a reason then I'm just visiting.
If it's held in your heart then you can't let go.

I've started a new thread for the game in the Video Games forum, so please discuss it there.

The movie itself reminds me of the Street Fighter movie, so it's only fitting that the game should follow suit.

Strange that Chatku isn't in any of these screenshots.
Still, the screenshots I see do nothing for me; looks like a Budoukai re-hash only with the actors and actresses.
But I don't have a psp to begin with, so they're not losing anything from one less copy being bought.
On hiatus.

I wonder if the LA cast will voice the characters?
Also, it seems to me all of these techniques will be fist and leg based specials. Sort of dissapointing, but alas...

I don't think I will get this game right away, but when it drops to 10-20 bucks I'll probably nab it up for my collection.

Is this really a purpose for posts like these? No. Please refrain from this type of nonsense in the future. Thanks.
