Burst Limit Online: Does it hold up?

Post by Rory » Sun Aug 09, 2009 4:51 pm

A question for those who still own Burst Limit:
As the only true online Dragonball game (I do not include the Wii games, as their online is pretty terrible), does it still hold up online? I know I still regularly play it online, though I've been waiting for a while to come into contact with anybody online.
What about you guys? Do you still blast this one out online?

If I had the game, I'd totally go online right away. I was gonna get the game a few months back after wanting it for a while. (Hell, the only reason why I did actually get a PS3 in the first place was because of Burst Limit. :lol:) I might actually just buy it some time. I remember playing the demo of it a gazillion times enough to master Goku's fighting style. :oops:

I used to own it on PS3 and the online was laggy and played like ass. Not to mention most people were bitches that shut off their game as soon as the odds were against them. Overall a disappointment. I'd be willing to bet it'd be better on Xbox Live.

Admittedly, I haven't played in a while, but I've always had a good experience on XBL. It's generally not laggy at all, but every so often it has a bit of lag, but not terrible. If anyone wants to play, I'd totally do it, my gamertag's in that thread.

Burst Limit's online is give or take on certain days. Sometimes I can get a few good matches going with people and its a lot of fun, but other times its like no one is even playing. Those times are the worst, you might get one kid and hes on the other side of the world so the match becomes unbearably laggy. Its awful.

To my surprise the matches aren't bad at all. 9 out of 10 matches run super smooth unless the kid lives in Japan or something(in which case I get a super ass whoppin'). I just wish more kids would play.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

I have it for the 360, but its not connected to the internet so I really couldn't use it to hop online if I wanted.

Sort of crazy...I BOUGHT a PS3 for Burst Limit back in June of LAST year...and I just got around to connecting it to the web today and the online battles werent as exciting as I thought.

In 3 matches I know I was body change atleast 10 times and Big Bang/Final Flash twice as many.

When I lived in Norway, I was able to play other people in Europe just fine, but not in the US, and much less in Asia.

Edit: This was the PS3 version.

I had it for the 360, and the online play can be rather slow. It's hard to win a match since most of the people you play on Live are little kids that use the same moves over and over again.
