I'm kind of glad the giants aren't in this time around since we have ring outs again.

It's going to suck for those characters that have those torpedo type moves. [Frieza, Dodoria, Pikkon]

SS2 Goku definitely needs a signature ultimate. Gohan, SS Gohan, and SS2 Gohan needs new moves more than anyone, they all pretty much have the exact same thing. Didnt he have like a golden blast he used against Buu's egg?
It was just a Super Kamehameha, which SS2 Teen Gohan already has in the game, it is fired the same way but just isn't yellow. I prefer it that way though, I dislike when the anime changes beam colors for no reason.
In the anime's defense...weren't all most attacks in black and white to begin with? Either way, that era Gohan needs work like whoa.

They could atleast make that one golden. 'Angry Kamehameha' is a yellowish color and we don't really KNOW it was a kamehameha, just a really big blast while he was angry.
They should just call it "Desperate Kamehameha"(considering why he used it) and it gets more powerful the lower his health bar is.

By the way, I guess Second Form Cell doesn't have Gyallic Hô in the games yet? It seems like an easy piece of fodder for adding more attacks to the game...
It changes based on how much energy is stored. First level: Saiyan Saga one; Second Level: Frieza Saga one; Third Level: Buu Saga.

Good point. Japan controllers look the same as the rest of the word's controllers right?

Who is that on the top right fighting base Goku?

Kind of looks like SS Gotenks but if he was wearing Piccolo's shoulder pads/cape thing.

Yes all controllers are universally the same on all of there respective consoles. You won't find a 360 controller anywhere that has square and triangle.

It looks like they are trying to suggest a person on a PS3 could vs someone on a 360 but that's impossible at the moment. I know that you can play cross multilayer games with PC owners for both systems separately: PS3 vs PC and 360 vs PC(assuming for the 360's the PC's are using Live). The difference between that and a PS3 vs a 360 is that 360's host their own servers through Live, while PS3's use servers hosted by the company(in this case Namco-Bandai). So I really don't know what the hell is going on. Maybe it's just a comparison shot between both versions of the game, only the image blended so well it looked like one big screen. :lol:
...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?

The Kamehameha was originally yellow in the manga (thus the color choice in Super DBZ), but was made blue for the anime. If the technique is a Kamehameha, then IMO, it should remain blue regardless. Angry Kamehameha is only a Kamehameha in name for the game, it isn't even fired like a Kamehameha, Gohan's yellow one however is. I do note that not all Kamehameha's are fired the same, but if it isn't fired like a Kamehameha and the name isn't said, then it isn't one to me. I just prefer them keeping one color for an attack, not that my opinion matters since SSg2 Vegeta has a yellow Final Flash in game and SS2 Vegeta's is blue.

Same way Raging Blast made them different I suppose. Change which Genki Dama is used based on the item attached to Goku? I always kind of prefered the idea that the attack would change from the Saiyan Era, Freeza Era and Buu Era versions based on how many times you use "Give Me Your Energy!", but then it would have to be used to take up a Super Attack slot... Maybe items are better after all.

Yeah, he had it in Raging Blast.

I think these would look better as SSJ or SSJ2 only.
Hmm... what about False SSJ as Kaioken x5?
They might look better, but I'm not going off of looks. The moves themselves are nothing more than a couple of kicks, teleports and/or beams which I'm sure base Goku could easily do. And Goku can get angry no matter what form he is in. =P

I always assumed False SS would just be a Rush Super, or a power up similar to Kaioken than changes his appearance as ki drains would work I suppose. I would just like it to be a rush though, I don't ever use the power ups for characters outside of Kaioken.

I would think if they don't actually SAY kamehameha...then it isn't one, since everyone and their grandmother had to announce to the baddies they were shooting something.....but now that I think about it, I'm sure Gohan yelled that out while he was shooting it.

Hey guys I am probably late on this whole discussion but I think I have confirmation Bojack's 'team' move where he shoots Zangya into the enemy works with more people than just her. More than likely whoever is on his team. I went on youtube and captured a picture from the TGS trailer of when he does this to Zangya then I went to the site and took that picture and put them together. This was the result.

Image

As you can see Bojack and Zangya's expression is the same as in the picture with Gohan and Bojack.The pictures are nearly identical aside from lack of health bars on the second pic and text. So I guess this does mean that this move can be done with anybody on your team. Does that still make it a team attack or what?

Also personally, I think it will be fun to see this done with other people and not just Zangya.

We've already kinda discussed this a few pages back.

The technique itself isn't exactly elaborated upon. It could be a regular Super attack and he just teleports behind the enemy and pushes them before blasting them or it could be a team attack or a sacrificial team attack where he appears behind someone from his own team (who is hopefully low in health), and pushes them before blasting them to try and hit the opponent. We don't exactly know what is going on with it, other than it exists and has been used with/on Zangya and Gohan. Only time will tell.

It's most likely an ultimate.

It could very well be a team attack activated by his ultimate when both a teammate and the opponent are in their last bar of health, but other videos have also shown new team attacks activated by regular super attacks (Piccolo and Goku's Full-nelson Makankosappo was the same in the original RB). We'll just have to wait for the games release.

Why the hell would he blast an ally in the back (which ultimately kills Zangya)? It's a Super, nothing more.

The same reason the Full-Nelson Special Beam Cannon exists.

It's a sacrificial means of inflicting damage. Is that really so hard to believe?
Super Saiyan Blue is not a creative color.
DBZ Movie 3 told a stronger and more believable "Evil Goku" story in 60 minutes than Dragon Ball Super has in 20 episodes. And it did it with better visuals and score.
