Since they seem to be refreshing the game series, I'm surprised that didn't go with something like "Tenkaichi Kai".

Perhaps the RB series was too much of failure, so much for "wait for RB3 guys" that was floating around other forums since RB1.

Are we going to get any E3 footage this week of the game?

This thought just came to me; all the names has Dragon Ball Z in the name... Z... I guess that means yet again that it is based only on DBZ, eh?

Didnt Budokai and all the BTs have DB or GT characters in them with Z in the name?

I don't think DB characters fighting mechanics/abilities would go well with Z and GT characters.

It probably is, but there's no guarantee. All of the Sparking games included DB characters, a couple of them included GT, Budokai 3 included DB & GT, Infinite World included GT, and Legendary Super Warriors had a DB character. There's no indication that this game includes DB or GT, but we don't really know enough to be completely sure. They could have decided to tack on the Z as a marketing strategy. Z games tend to sell better.

I hope so. If not then there is always the comic con.

That would imply them actually keeping up with the franchise. I seem to recall a Bandai representative saying that the "Plan to Erradicate the Super Saiyans" was based on a manga volume and was never finished lol
(Although using "Kai" in the name is actually a good idea...which is probably why Bandai Namco didn't think of it)

Dragon Ball Z Sparking! Meteor (BT3) had characters from DB, Z, GT and Arale.
Raging Blast focused on Z only and didn't have Z in the name.

one of the official forum's moderators gave a list of appearing games and Project Age was on it so I'm assuming we'll at least see a trailer as we have for almost every Dragonball game.

Off topic: Sony was better than Microsoft, EA and Ubisoft were in between but Ubisoft was on drugs.

On Topic: I hope they give a penalty to online disconnecters. A auto loss will suffice.

Agreed

Yeah, disconnecting counted as a loss in RB2.

This game better needs a good core combat and a good Ki system.
I want a game, which can be compared to Tekken, SF, MK and BB.

DB Xenoverse is not a DBZ simulator with fighting elements, it's a semi competent fighting/action game with DBZ simulation elements.

This! I would love if the fights had a little of that "Tekken feeling."

Would be cool if they continue to add new what-ifs and a GT roster.

I wonder if we will see Project Age for the Wii U? The control for the Wii U does look pretty awesome and I think a DBZ game for that system could be awesome.

It'd be nice to play it all handheld as well. Perhaps the controller could also be used for unleashing special attacks or something.

If it gets ported.

I wish the Wii U controller was a bit smaller. And the control stick placement is weird to me (a control stick above the face buttons? C'mon.).
Which brings me to a question? Are those control stick clickable?

No what-if SSJ4's please, we are already dealing with what-if SSJ3's.

I would not to be surprise if it does since both the second and 3rd Sparking games where released on the Wii. I have a good feeling that it will likely be a Wii U lunch title.
