So when the games comes out, is anyone going to do a Daizex game night on Xboxlive? I'll probably get Raging Blast 2 for X-Mass unless I get it on sale, so I'm not sure if I'm going to pick it up or not.

There is a big difference.
Sixth, and these are all from the same company over a period of five years. There's been the same number of Call of Duty games over the same period of time, but to complain about them not changing but then saying you're excited for Raging Blast 2 is pure hypocrisy. To say all FPSs are the same would be the same to say all fighting games are the same, which is a category you and many others try to lump RB2 into. Namco Bandai's constant no-change iterations on Sparking are no better than Activision's constant iterations of Call of Duty.

I'm going to miss the AI actually shooting off their ultimate.

It's been raging soul after raging soul and raging frickin soul.

I've watched some of the playthroughs on Youtube and...is it me or does Sean Schemmel's Goku sound really good?

The theme song playing whenever a player uses Raging Soul is a nice touch, but I can see that getting annoying fast.

I'm just gonna wait till it gets cheaper before I get it.

I LOVE playing as Tarble but they literally went down the list of Generic moves when they made him...

Full powered blast
a volley
an explosion
a stat booster
and a wild sense.

For shame.

You can change the song from Battle of Omega so if your tired of it just switch or you can play your own music and the song won't change at all.

As excited as I was for him it seems like he was just thrown in and his ultimate just screams Pan to me,Space pod = Guru. He really is the Pan of this game.

So basically they are saying if it's not Fallout or COD then the game is trash. Very nice.

Yeah I know that this game will not be getting good reviews since you can tell that people are sick of these games. I will play the game for myself before I judge it.

I personally won't be getting this for a couple months. Bought a decent amount of stuff recently. It's killing me though :( .

Also since were on the topic. I will not be getting Black Ops due to the worst game I have ever played (MW2). Black Ops doesn't look like it's going to change too much. But I got my trusty Medal Of Honor that I'll play instead :D .

I'm not a big COD fan, so I will not get the game and I will end up getting this or Fable III instend next week. Are there any other reviews so far? It seems like this game is getting reviews worst then the first game.

I won't be able to acquire the game for awhile due to financial reasons but from what I have seen in streams and videos the game is good. Also the part where they said it was for fans, that's kind of the most important thing. I swear IGN is so biased in their reviews it's not even funny.

I think the lowest rating DB game on IGN would be IW. I'm pretty sure Gamestop will give the game the same rating did, these games are made for fans and not game of the year type of stuff like Fallout 3 or Gears of War.

Tarble seems to be a bit of a let down considering what you have to do to get him.

The guy at ign.com keeps criticizing the gameplay and the fighting system.
I love it, it's amazing.

Tbh people shouldn't take reviews seriously, just look at what FIFA11 got. Like 9.5 out of 10 but please people. Go check the EA Forums and see how it's full of people complaining. I'll stop here. :|

But giving a game a low score can still fuck up sales even if the review isn't meant to be serious.

Jesus, this game's atrocious...

There needs to be diversity and deep complexity in these games, or there's no point. As long as everyone continues to play the same with no depth, they're not gonna be recieved well by the more hardcore fighting fanbase.

The biggest mistake was not making a follow-up to Burst Limit. At least that title followed the better, more well recieved fighting mechanics established from the Budokais.

As is the case with the irrelevant existence of Kai, I'll ignore this title in favor of sticking with what was originally better, Infinite World. Now there's a fightin' game.

Oh yeah that's true.
