I don't want to flip through 98 pages so can someone please re-post the article that said their would be two new characters? I mean the games release is less than a month away. If this was a a big deal it would have happened by now, or rather it should have happened by now.

Dunno if anybody here was part of the Brawl hype train, but there were tons of characters that we didn't know about until the Japanese release. It's not out of the ordinary for a developer to keep a secret character a secret. Helps boost hype after the game is released.

You're probably right and also I tried to pre-order the speacial edition at Gamestop but they said they didnt have it, yet they had the regular edition.

Well, honestly speaking, this game doesn't really compare to Brawl in terms of hype, Brolly Super Saiyan 3 is kinda cute but needless, especially since, as far as we've seen, he has absolutely no new moves, it's the same shit all over again, just with a new skin over his character model, whoop-dee-doo.
The graphics are nice but not THAT nice. The only thing that's making me interested is the story mode and the giant stages, everything else looks just more of the same, up until now. (get it?)

Oh I agree entirely. The hype is exclusive to a fraction of a small community. I was using Brawl as an example.

I was checking the listing of characters so far, and I noticed there is not one GT character listed. So, whats the deal there? Is this game choosing to only go up to the buu saga?

I'd prefer none to the half-assed GT roster in Sparking Meteor.

There are no Dragon Ball and no Dragon Ball GT characters in the game.
The only movie characters are Gogeta and Broly. I still don't understand the absence of Dabra.

Same,though I would like to see some Dragonball Characters. The downside of no GT is that there is no hope for the what if GT Gotenks fusion that I have always wanted.

All his attacks would involve Goku rushing in to fight the opponent instead, so....

GT seriously needs to get it's own fighting game. Quality of the anime aside, there were a lot of fun, interesting new characters that would be a blast to play as.

I don't think the full roster of characters has been listed down yet. I think UK gets the game before the US does, and lets hope we get some info from them.

Yes, we get it 17 days earlier, but I doubt they will wait until then to say who the 2nd character is.

See even this website says "One of the Exclusive characters". I hope we get these pre-order bonuses in the UK.

No it doesn't. It just says "one of the unlockable characters in the game".
