As for PSN, no demo for the EU it seems.

C'mon, PSN. GET ON THE BALL!

Still excited at the prospect of getting the chance to play this game soon.

I don't think the JPN PSN has the demo either, although I don't understand Japanese at all, so navigating around the store is just randomness for me. It might be there and I missed it, I don't know. No big adverts for it though, just the videos like before.

Today is Thursday and PSN should be updating their stores, so you guys will see if the demo pops up later today. As for me, here in the US, I will keep an eye open but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Whether Freeza Soidier is there or not is he in any way hinderin' your play with the game ? NO ! Stop the foolishness and complain about real things, like the ki effects lookin' very amateur, and fallin' way short to BT3's

I fail to see how the ki effects(seeing as they really aren't that bad in the first place) hinder the game experience any more than the Freeza soldier would. Both are weakness sure, but really can be ignored regardless.

The point I was making, and was thankfully fixed, was the massive character count for the sake of advertising a huge list. There were a lot of characters that weren't needed and their was no reason to have multiple versions of the same character when you can just adjust the move list like the earlier games. Thankfully they fixed this problem and the roster looks good(not massive, but still good).

You shouldn't worry much about the look(though so far its all we can base things on) but apparently the game plays great and that's what really matters now doesn't it.

Japan has already updated. The EU store should be updating very soon, although it's not getting the demo this week. The contents of the US update haven't been announced yet.

Sadly I won't know about the US store updates until I get home(in about 4 hours).

I'm playing the Demo now, It's amazing! You can only play as 3 characters, Goku Base and Goku SSJ, Raditz and Piccolo. It's a little hard to get used to the controls I'm just tapping "B" and "Y" all the time. Anyway great fun so far.

EDIT: Anyone figured out how to do the Kamehameha or Special Beam Cannon?

Use the right thumb stick (360). Depending on direct, the attack will change.

Down on the d-pad will charge ki.

Right thumb stick opens up the transformation menu. X activates Super Saiyan.

Also, note that some attacks require that you be next to the enemy (remember Broli's special attack from Meteor? Like that), such as SSJ Goku's attack (forget what it's called). From there you'll have to activate a quick time event mid-attack to ensure that you keep attacking them, and not just stop half way through.

Thanks so much! Just did the Kamehameha and Solar Flare! Didn't manage to activate Super Saiyan Goku though. What do you mean Right thumb stick opens up the transformation menu?

I'm pushing the d-pad down and it charges, I push the right thumb stick and it does a special attack, I did it a minute ago and I did the Kaioken.

Just starting DL'ing the demo on Xbox Live....

...oh man...I'm jizzing with anticipation....

EDIT: Okay Daizexers, I need your help.

I cannot figure out how to do the special moves (Kamehameha, etc.) and the way my TV is, I can't see the controls on the pause menu clearly. Anyone know how to do those?

Gah, I wish I could play this~!

Also, the psudo-cursing is getting on my nerves in the dub: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwGqBcK-2X4

I wish my 360 worked. Bloody red light.

Where was the psudo-cursing at?

But either way, [if it was Raditz] he is an alien from a different galaxy...it should be a huge shock that he would even know what an Earth language is.

I'm downloading the demo right now and it should be done in a few mins. I hope the demo is worth playing.

I think he's talking about Goku's "Darn You!" when he fires that Angry Kamehameha.

How are you supposed to control the bursting? It looks like it could throw your character clear off the screen and mess up the camera.

That could get annoying.

LeprikanGT · Post by **LeprikanGT** » Thu Oct 22, 2009 4:05 pm

This may just be a Dub thing only [not sure what was said in the JP, can anyone help me out?] but I think as he is firing the Angry Kamehameha he should yell out "You Foooooool!" like he did in the show.

EDIT: also Real down down-transforming
