Just to let you know, I talked to Nostal, aka Treevax, and it has been confirmed that the odd looking slot with Goku powering up in it is for DLC characters. So if you go to a forum where they are saying it is a cover up for a what-if or just a weird looking character slot, correct them please. lol

I know this goes against my previous statement, but heres a newish video that I hadnt seen yet:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3E3tyTcfIQ

That stage looks AMAZING! And how cool is that, Cell uses his tail in melee attacks.

Also, something I wanted to mention earlier....out of all the moved from RB1 I was most disappointed with, please...PLEASE let the developers have given SS3 Goku an actual ultimate; not just the kamehameha.

I believe I've seen glimpses in a trailer of Dragon Fist.

I know fat Janempa isn't in the game but I was REALLY hoping for that move where he has a golden orb in each hand then torpedos down with lightening surrounding him.

Which trailer was that? I know I remember seeing a dragon but I think that was part of the opener. ANYTHING could be better than just a Kamehameha. They finally made SS3 Goku a beast and then they go and mess up an ultimate.

Spike, you just blew me away.
Best Dragon ball related CG I've ever seen. The characters move fluidly, the action is intense, and it just looks... wow.

I wish we had an official release of it, I'd crank that thing up to 1080p and bask in the glory that is RB2 cinematics.

Demos never come with openings do they?

So its agreed the Raging Blast 2 has the best stage/background graphics. I just compared Burst Limit character graphics to Raging Blast 2 graphics and I sau I like Raging blast 2 more. Its seems they are going for more of a cgi look(Spike) for their characters. Makes me wonder how RB3 will look.

The opening looks pretty good this time around.
I must say though I really like the new song.

If they could 'harness' the graphics of the opening to be the in game graphics, it would be the best graphics EVER, by a margin we couldn't even measure.

That would be like SS Vegito vs. Turtle.

My lord the character models are really growing on me... They look absolutely amazing, especially Cell and Majin Buu

Can't remember if I said this here yet (maybe it was just on Twitter) but Battle of the Omega is really feeling like a sequel to Super Survivor to me.

Oh no question. The two sound so similar.

Umm... Am I the only person who's not falling head over heels for the new opening? The animation and models are definitely improved but they still don't feel right. I still have not liked a CG opening yet. I would much rather have a traditional animation opening again.

I like the song though.
If you're not here soon... GET ON!

....Yeah a different forum from this one will just irrationally lash out and pop out all sort of wrong information. I'm realyl glad we have mods here. Thats way better of an icon than the computer or whatever it was in the first one though.

@AgitoZ: Nothing towards youpersonally, but that is the first time I've heard of someone not liking the opening, but if you are more partial to animated openings, that may be it.

I missed the DLC part. Pretty cool, I wasn't expecting us to get any DLC characters. I assumed they would save that for the third installment.

I agree with you. I do not think it is that great but it is far better than anything we have gotten for the Spike games.

Nah, don't raise your expectations. I'm 99% certain that it will just be typical Spike DLC, the super powered characters with items we can't normally obtain in game. Though I'm not sure if those super powered DLC characters and the DLC characters with the alternate colored costumes (ie. Vegeta with Bardock colors) are one in the same. There may be super powered characters AND alternate colored costume characters, or the super powered characters may have alternate colored costumes.

Yeah, its not like they are gong to add actual characters as DLC.

Does DLC have the same ratings as video games get? I'd love a 1 arm Future Gohan.

As would we all, but it will never happen with Spike. There are two many characters that have Crashes, Throws, Signatures and Supers/Ultimates that involve grabbing the left arm, which would mean that they'd have to rework almost every character just to have the moves work against him.
