/Feels guilty after posting some stuff about Kai that he read while being VERY sleepy and tired... \ nevertheless, let's hope for a trailer

[Makaioshin]

I find it odd that the top screenshot looks so different from the others. Dragon Ball characters look bad in that realistic style. But at least if it is Zenkai it will be something different.

[InfernalVegito]

I think the upper right one could be a cutscene or a sequence that starts the fight, because both Vegeta and Goku make the same pose, like just entering the stage. I don't know, it just looks very cool and totally different than the pictures below.

Was there 3D grass in Raging Blast 2?

[CashmanX]

I wonder if they'll bring back the "planetary explosion" cutscenes...

[LeprikanGT]

If it IS the Zenkai game...I'm interested to see how the multiple players on the field will work.

This guy = Super scared the roster will take a hit.

[Hellspawn28]

The scans look great. I want to see some gameplay before I can make a final judgment on it.

I'm hoping for a trailer on the 11th, and I'm hoping it isn't just a crappy announcement. I've been sitting here trying to figure out of the HUD is supposed to work, but I have no clue since none of the screens we have indicate any sort of health loss. Sure we have ones with the "Select" commands and stuff at the bottom, but what exactly measures your ki? where is your health? who the heck is winning the the screens? lol More confusion at its best.

[mysticboy]

Who is saying there will be more information on the 11th? What is the actual source of this?

I remember a crap load of "OH MAN WE'RE GETTING A TRAILER ON SUCH-AND-SUCH DATE!!!!1" for the last two games, and unless it was associated with a major event by the publisher themselves, it was always traced back to "some dude on some other shitty message board".

Possible trailer coming on the 11th.

[Rostir]

The fishiness in all of this will go away when we see footage.

[VegettoEX]

And what history does this gamingfrance.fr have? What is their source for the trailer coming on the 11th? Are they just assuming that, maybe, perhaps, they hope, that on the 11th a trailer will come, potentially in conjunction with an event ("Level-Up", which I can't find a reference to elsewhere)?

EDIT: Strike that, duh; they've held "Level-Up" in Barcelona before. So again, yeah, it sounds like they're assuming that next "LEVEL UP" event will have a trailer (specifically using the phrasing "potential trailer")... but there's been nothing said about it other than this speculation. Assuming the event is on May 11th, and assuming Namco-Bandai EU is ready to go with this so soon after the JP announcement (which they were last year), yeah, maybe that's a fair bit of speculation. But it's not fact.

Too many things going between too many languages, particularly with folks who can't spell properly .

Yeah. I simply said a possible trailer might be coming on the 11th. People are just getting too excited about it.

[Hellspawn28]

Don't get too excited since you might be let down. This could be RB3 for all we know.

I don't think anyone's running around screaming in joy about it, hoping shows the same level of skepticism as you albeit with a bit more positivity.

Regardless we're getting a video soon, the site seems ready to release one before they add any structure to the webpage.

[mckeg]

Well I'm betting it's either gonna have stereoscopic 3D or Kinect/Move support, something like that would be new for a ps3/360 game.
It would also be fairly likely to be the "feel like your really there" part they are emphasising.

[LeprikanGT]

No way it's a Kinect game. There are FAAAAAR too many buttons and combinations used in a DBZ game for a camera to simply pick up on every movement. And comingfrom a Loayl Ps3 fan, I SOOOO hope they don't try to use the Move controller for this game either. It's an arcade game in Japan, so we will have the controller no doubt.

If there was a DBZ game for the Kinect, it would have to be dumbed WAY down with the controls.

[NECPS]

Well now THIS is something that brings me
directly from far away back to your board.

And I AM sorry for not being able to speak
(and write) properly. Oh well I hate this but
you are the guys I like when coming about
Dragonball Z !

[mysticboy]

The effects kind of remind me of Storm 2 a little bit.

[goku the krump dancer]

I guess everyone (including myself) is kinda over doing it with this whole trailer on Wednesday thing but who knows? I for one am still hoping that there is a trailer on the 11th.

Also would you guys prefer that this game just have random stage music like in the previous games or do you think they should bring back "Character" theme songs. For me I think they should bring back "Character" themes mostly because I would like to here a updated version of the Future Trunks theme from UB22 . Also because its been a good while since they've been in a game and the BGMs for the last couple games (BL,RB1,RB2) have been real shitty imo.

I kind of wish we could have both. Use standard stage music for when fights are starting and relatively even, and then if they could find a nice way to fade into a character's specific music when winning by a certain margin (maybe 20% more health than the opponent) and keep it playing until the tides turn or the fight starts to come to a close with people about to die. I'd really like it if they switch to something dramatic once someone is close to losing to allow for that epic death feeling. But all that is probably asking too much. lol
