Indeed. This game is beautiful to look at. And I'm loving the battle damage. I just can't wait to have this game in my hands.

According to the site where I found the pics (Play France), here's what we can expect from the game:

Des attaques au corps-à-corps
Pas moins de 90 personnages en comptent les fusions et les transformations
La possibilité de se téléporter
La possibilité de voler librement dans les niveaux
Des environnements destructibles en quasi totalité
Des combats sous l'eau / en l'air / sur terre
Un scénario allant de Raditz à Boo (50% plus long que celui de Budokai 3 avec des ramifications)
Plus de 60 personnages jouables
Des personnages tirés des 13 OAV DBZ
Customiser un Z Character avec 10 attributs
Les attaques Dragon Rush, Rush et Smash Attack
Le Dragon Mode jouable en solo
Un mode deux joueurs en écran splitté
Le mode Ultimate Battle
La traditionnelle collection de Capsules
Le mode Evolution Z
Le tournoi des Arts Martiaux
Des vidéos des OAV à débloquer

And all that means:
-close combat attacks;
-not less than 90 characters counting fusions and transformations;
-ability to "teleport";
-ability to fly freely in the levels;
-ability to destroy almost everything;
-ability to fight on the ground, in the air, under water;
-the story mode starts during the Raditz saga and ends during the Majin Buu saga (plus alternative storylines);
-more than 60 playable characters;
-characters from all 13 movies;
-ability to customize some "Z character"'s abilities;
-Rush, Dragon Rush and Smash Attacks;
-1 player Dragon Mode;
-split screen 2 players mode;
-"Ultimate Battle" mode;
-we'll have to collect capsules once again;
-"Evolution Z" mode;
-Tenkaichi Budokai mode;
-unlockable videos from the movies.

I hope that was clear enough.

YAY~! Characters from all 13 movies means Turles will be in it too!

-unlockable videos from the movies.

That is a very cool prospect

. Being able to play through and have the story progressed by video clips. I realise I could have gotten the wrong end of the stick and these clips could just be unlockables (like the Baba Movies) but even at that, it's awesome.

Cool, This game looks great. I think it'll be Tapion instead of Hildegarn

That image with Super Juunanagou... SS4 Son Gokuu is crouching on that jeep?!? Neat.

And don't get your hopes up with the 'characters from all 13 movies' to get exactly who you want. Instead of Hildegarne, they may put in Tapion or Minoshia instead.

I hope it has more Dragonball(Dragonball-Piccolo saga) characters.

Imagine if they put in Arale(sp) in. Atleast a cameo. >_>

Sparking! site updated.

It has bios of

Zarbon
Dodoria
Chiaoutsu (YEES)
Baby Vegeta (YYYYYEEEESSS)
Bojack
Super #17

It also has new images in the blast attacks, that go like a slide show. It shows moves for Piccolo, Cell, Gokou, Bojack, Super #17 and others. It also shows previous blast attacks (i.e. Jiisu's Crusher Ball) with more detail.

It could have Hildeguarn playable. Have you seen the size of the battle fields?

DB_Fan · Post by **DB_Fan** » Sat Jul 09, 2005 2:02 pm

All 13 movies probably means also Bio Broly and Garlic Junior.

Nothing new but here's a nice picture: http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/6432/s ... uly2vm.jpg. It confirms what we've known for a few days.

I'd be more interested in seeing Tapion than Hildeguarn, but that's just me.

I don't know why but I've always tought that Tapion is a really weak character. He can play the flute and has a cool sword but that's about it, he can't even fly.

That's what I keep telling my friend, but he won't listen. Before I saw Movie 13 he swore up and down Tapion was the coolest character ever. After I watched it and found Tapion did next to nothing but yell at Trunks and play the flute, I had to slap him around.

Woah, with the exception of Janemba (who's eye curves don't look right), they all look like their straight from the anime. The cell-shading is very impressive. Perhaps this game may in fact become on par with Budokai 3 after all. However, that remains to be seen.

I wonder if in Sparking, you will always be locked on to your oponent. It'd be cool if you flew ar enough away from your opnent they stopped being forced to face your direction, you could like run behind mountains and cliffs and ambush them from behind or something. It could work, cause they could make it so you press a certain button to lock onto your oponent. If they did do this, they could make it so you can have more then 2 people fighting at the same time. =P
