I'm amazed that there is actually a create a character, I was really sure there wouldn't be one.
I am however not amazed by the fact that it looks really shoddy.

Sounds like it so far, I'm happy because minus Burst Limit, we haven't gotten a collector's edotion of some sort of bonus since Budokai 3....not counting that flimsily thrown together and horribly spell checked "Top 10 best fights" Dvd that was in BT3.

Yet Japan has had something with almost all the games.

The dude in the trailer, right? He does have a tail.. and he's actually wearing Broly's outfit and not Berserker clothes.
So, that "belt" is the tail, didn't notice that, but, makes sense.

Also, nevermind about the outfit. I saw the Berseker outfit in another video and thought they just had included it, but those are actually Broly's clothes, not the native ones (different armbands and boots), so they included both.

Image

So, confirmed outfits up to now:

Normal Uniform 1 - Gi with martial artist belt, long sleeved undershirt, wrappings above shoes
Normal Uniform 2 - Normal Uniform 1 without undershirt
Native Costume 1 - Broly's clothes without jewels and with plain boots.
Piccolo's outfit (with cape)
Raditz's outfit
Android #17's outfit
Trunks's outfit (without Jacket)
Broly's outfit
Gogeta's outfit

Anyway, I'm now really dreading the possibility of no way of removing the tails. That's just stupid. Most Saiyans in the show didn't even have tails throughout most of the story.

I'll come out and say it. I'm really diggin' this "Hero Mode".

...Yeah, i would kinda like it too be like SvR (07) where you can customize the character to the jab. But i'm lazy anyway so all i would do was customize the look, choose the Super moves i wanted and just copy the rest of the moveset from a character i wanted to fight like.
(And have we really been playing Spike's games for their depth?...)

All i'm really hoping for right now is that those character "types" can be used to make characters such as the new Freeza clansmen from Dragon Ball Heroes and so on......Oh, and seeing some GT designs in this graphical engine.

(And yes, i'm gonna try to make characters based on Toyble's AF and Multiverse :mrgreen: )

I've always wondered what's so cool about having toy versions of manga and anime characters, even while being a child I couldn't understand.

I'm gonna hold a little glimmer of hope that the CaC isnt as bland as it looks, even though I think I can still have fun with what we've been shown so far.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

The character creator looks exactly how I pictured it. I can see myself having fun with this but it's not going to be a lasting thing for me.
...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?

As awesome as that figure is, it's definately not worth £30-40 extra.

To be fair it is a very pretty looking figure :) On zavvi the standard edition is going for £34.84 while the CE is 69.85. you'd be paying £35 on top of the Standard Edition price for the figure.

Chances are that i'll also try to make official characters with techniques they wouldn't normaly use similar to Super Dragonball Z. Imagine Tapion was in and we could make a Trunks Look alike with Tapions techniques :D

Even if he isn't, one can just make a Tapion look-a-like with Trunks techniques :D

I want his ocarina :) make a DBZ Link of sorts. we already seem to have a sword fighting style and the "Normal Uniform" without logo could resemble his outfit somewhat...oh the possibilities (that will probably be dashed horribly when we learn how mediocre the character creation is)

Just think there will be data slots for your characters on the PS3/360 (like for matches in RB) that you can erase at anytime.
GT isn't bad, just sucks ass in comparison to the other 2 animes.

I hope we can give the other Saiyans transformations. SSJ Bardock (he might be in any way) and SSJ Turles ^_^.
