I nabbed a better image of the cover art from the games official site. Very beautiful:

That picture Rambo is almost nailed... almost. Goku doesn't look monkey'ey enough though. But thats just a little thing i like about the DB Goku design

I hope the squeeze Krillin in on the bottom right.

So we can use Classic controllers and Gamecube controllers. That's sweet! And really good news for the Vs. Mode. I'd hate to have to play with the Wiimote + Nunchuck on a fighting game.

I really like the cover. Will the American and Japanese covers look the same?

Although that cover art is nicely done, the composition isn't good. Too much blank space, especially in the bottom right hand corner.

@ Inna: I think it would be hilarious for them to somehow add Krillin hanging on to the back of Bulmas top swinging in the wind from her running so fast. Not having her shirt move or anything, just a fun little throwback to the the Bab fighter fights; since one of the videos showed akkuman [idk the japanese name for him, sorry if thats not right]

With them showing akkuman, it relly shows that the developers and getting DEEP into the storyline. This maybe be the most excited I've been about a DB/Z game before...topping the collectors edition of B3 and the release of BT3.

Here's a link to a video with all three Japanese commercials for the game:

Just in case somebody hasn't bothered to watch them yet, like me.

I surprised Hiroki Takahashi came back for a new song. And the game just looks great. I'm often reminded of a 3-D Advance Adventure meets Viewtiful Joe. I'm looking forward to it.

"Akkuman" is his Japanese name.

He returned to record the 2005 version of Makafushigi Adventure.

Yeah, I know, but that was a remix :P Making a new song altogether for the franchise is just surprising to me, let alone a video game.

I thought they did change his name in the US dub? To "Spike" or some such thing.

His name was "Spike the Blue Devilman", mostly just "Devilman". In fact, I think they only referred to him as Spike in BT3.

The more I see from the pictures and videos, the more I see how "wrong" Goku looks like...!!

Sure, he was short when he was 15/16 years old ((The time he fought Piccolo Daimaoh)), but he looks so short in the game that he looks like he is 12 with no change at all.

especially in this picture

If someone could make an avatar of Goku on the cover, I would love them.
