Thanks a lot, now I will play Raging Blast 2/any other Dragon Ball video game with the Japanese BGM! YEAH!!! :D
Just curious, but did you really not know you could do that already with a PS3 or 360?

I hope not. Besides not every character is in the build used for the trailers.
GT isn't bad, just sucks ass in comparison to the other 2 animes.

I hope that the feature to play your own songs from XMB bar is still possible with UT since there are many games where it's not possible.

There has not been one Dragon Ball Game yet on the PS3 where it is not possible.

I don't really know how the system works, but doesn't this game allow you to customize your "super" and "ultimate" attacks like the RB series did(I haven't played RB 1 or 2)?

If so this could simply be a costumized Future Trunks(w. Sword) and not necessarily an indication of Spike combining the two versions.

I wasn't talking about DB games specifically.

I know, I'm just saying considering the past Dragon Ball Games has that feature, I don't think they would remove it.

Only Goku could have different ulimates in the RB games, the Genki Dama could be upgraded via items.

Huh, well this video seems to suggest that you can customize ultimates at least in Hero Mode. The question is if you can do it with the standard characters as well.

Burst Limit

But InfernalVegito is right. There are soooo many PS3 games that won't let you play your own music. Too many in my opinion.

I'de much rather not have to play the music from my XMB. It has a whole different effect to me when it plays from the game itself.

That's been the question since the video premiered. Someone at Goku's Corner insists there has been a character list released by Namdai that says both versions of Trunks are still in the game as separate characters (and that Ultimate Gohan is now a transformation)... but no ones seen it as far as I know, so whatever.

I'd like to see this list, even if it is fake. The fact that no one has seen it leads me to believe it's fake.

What was also weird. Trunks' Ultimate which obviously goes towards the sky produces a planet explosion yet Vegeta's Final Flash which is fired down towards Earth doesn't.

Yeah, I'm ashamed with myself, I know how to put applications, hombrews, pirate games, even CFW on PS3 and PSP, and I didn't knew this... :oops:
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Maybe you can turn on and off the planet destruction. Or maybe there are other criterion besides just using your ultimate to make it happen.

:lol: Why in the world would there be an option to turn on and off the planet destruction? But so far that's one of the best explanations as to why it's sometimes there and not.

The same reason why you can turn off destructible environments in the BT series.

I don't see the logic here...what could possibly be wrong with having the option to turn something off? It would be OPTIONAL, you could just keep it on all the time...
